P2ba8 Chevrolet Description

The selective catalytic reduction system reduces oxides of nitrogen (NOx) emissions by injecting a metered amount of diesel exhaust fluid or reductant into the exhaust gas stream entering the diesel particulate filter (DPF). Within the selective catalytic reduction catalyst, the reductant reacts with the NOx to form nitrogen, carbon dioxide, and water vapor. Upstream and downstream NOx sensors provide the Engine Control Module (ECM) with engine-out and tailpipe-out NOx levels.

The ECM uses the 2 NOx sensors to control exhaust NOx levels. The NOx sensor measures the amount of NOx and oxygen in the exhaust system. The first NOx sensor is located at the outlet of the turbocharger and monitors the engine out NOx. The second NOx sensor is located in the DPF that monitors NOx levels exiting the DPF. The ECM varies the amount of reductant added by varying the reductant injector duty cycle in response to changes in engine exhaust out NOx levels.
