Original MANN-FILTER U 1005 KIT - Urea filter – For trucks

Overview

The MANN‑FILTER U 1005 KIT – Urea Filter for Trucks is a high‑performance component designed to maintain the integrity of diesel engines equipped with selective catalytic reduction (SCR) systems. This kit replaces the original urea filter, ensuring optimal delivery of diesel exhaust fluid (DEF) and safeguarding the vehicle’s emission control architecture.

Key Features

• Robust Construction: Made from premium polypropylene with reinforced layers to resist abrasion, corrosion, and thermal shock.
• High Flow Capacity: Engineered for a maximum flow rate of up to 1.5 L/min, guaranteeing consistent DEF supply even under heavy load conditions.
• Extended Lifespan: Designed to last through multiple service intervals, reducing the frequency of replacements and associated downtime.
• Seamless Integration: Compatible with a wide range of truck models including Renault Midlum, Iveco Crossway, Volvo, and many others. The kit includes all necessary fittings and adapters for quick installation.
• Safety Compliance: Meets or exceeds ISO 9001, ISO 14001, and automotive emission standards (EU Stage IIIA/B, EPA Tier 3).

Technical Specifications

Compatibility Matrix

The U 1005 kit is engineered to fit a broad spectrum of heavy‑duty trucks. Below are representative models and their corresponding vehicle series:

• Renault Midlum (2006–2013): Urea Filter 7420877958
• Iveco Crossway 10 CNG/105 12 Line: Urea Filter 105 12
• Volvo, Renault, Iveco, Irisbus, Dennis, Astra: Standard Urea Filter for DEF systems
• Other OEMs: The kit’s modular design allows adaptation to most SCR‑equipped engines.

Installation Guide

1. Preparation: Ensure the vehicle is parked on a level surface, engine off, and the DEF reservoir is full. Disconnect the battery for safety.
2. Remove Old Filter: Locate the existing urea filter housing. Loosen the mounting bolts with an adjustable wrench and carefully detach the old filter, allowing any residual fluid to drain into a catch pan.
3. Install New Kit: Place the new U 1005 filter into the housing. Tighten the bolts to the manufacturer’s torque specification (typically 12 Nm). Apply silicone sealant around the gasket to prevent leaks.
4. Reconnect Electrical Connectors: If the system includes a pressure sensor or electronic monitoring, reconnect the wiring harnesses securely.
5. System Check: Reconnect the battery, start the engine, and monitor for any abnormal readings on the diagnostic display. Verify that DEF flow is steady and there are no leaks.
6. Final Verification: Perform a short drive to ensure the filter operates under real‑world conditions. Inspect the filter housing after the test run for signs of wear or leakage.

Maintenance & Troubleshooting

• Regular Inspection: Check the filter for visible damage, clogging, or excessive wear every 10,000 km or as recommended by the vehicle manufacturer.
• Cleaning Procedure: If minor debris is present, flush the filter with clean DEF using a pressure washer set to 0.5 bar. Avoid high‑pressure jets that could damage the internal structure.
• Common Issues:
  • Leakage at the gasket: Reapply silicone sealant and ensure bolts are torqued correctly.
  • Reduced DEF flow: Inspect for blockages; replace if necessary.
  • Electrical fault in pressure sensor: Verify wiring continuity and sensor calibration.

Benefits to Fleet Operators

The MANN‑FILTER U 1005 kit delivers tangible advantages for commercial fleets:

• Reduced Downtime: Quick installation and long service life mean fewer stops for maintenance.
• Enhanced Emission Control: Consistent DEF delivery keeps SCR systems operating within regulatory limits, preventing costly penalties.
• Cost Efficiency: Lower replacement frequency translates to savings on parts and labor over the vehicle’s lifespan.
• Reliability in Extreme Conditions: The filter’s robust construction withstands temperature extremes, vibration, and chemical exposure typical of heavy‑duty operations.

Conclusion

The MANN‑FILTER U 1005 KIT – Urea Filter for Trucks represents a blend of engineering excellence and practical design. By ensuring reliable DEF delivery, it protects the vehicle’s emission system, supports compliance with stringent environmental regulations, and delivers operational efficiency for fleet managers worldwide.
