The customer has the choice
Limit value reduction from Euro 0 to Euro 5
Whether Euro 4 technology for local and long-distance transport and construction site service or the toll-saving Euro 5 technology for long-distance transport service - at MAN customers have a choice and always get exhaust gas technology that is perfectly tailored to their requirements.
Euro 4 - a convincing solution
MAN Nutzfahrzeuge offers a unique Euro 4 solution with exhaust-gas management technology in conjunction with EGR and the particulate filter MAN PM KAT® for common rail engines.
MAN Nutzfahrzeuge offers a unique Euro 4 solution with exhaust-gas management technology in conjunction with EGR and the particulate filter MAN PM KAT® for common rail engines.
The smart MAN Euro 4 solution has numerous benefits for typical fields of deployment of the light and medium truck model series TGL and TGM, e.g. more space for additional structures on the frame and higher payloads and especially low weight. This means that Euro 4 particularly well suited to local goods transport as well as long-distance transport with a short distances driven on motorways with exhaust-gas-related tolls.
Euro 5 - basis for the future
Under the name MAN AdBlue®, MAN offers so-called SCR (selective catalytic reduction) technology to comply with the Euro 5 exhaust gas standard exclusively for long-distance transport trucks of the heavy model series. MAN AdBlue® technology is suitable above all for long-distance transport with high annual mileage and a high proportion of driving on motorways with exhaust-gas-related tolls.

The Euro limit values - getting there with low pollutant values
Trucks are getting cleaner and cleaner. The Euro limit values were introduced in 1990 with the aim of drastically reducing the pollutant emissions from trucks.
The next level, Euro 4, came into force in October 2006.
Euro 5 will follow in October 2009 for all newly licenced vehicles.
For these regulations, MAN offers optimised technology and is already well equipped for the Euro 6 exhaust gas standard that is likely to come into force as of 2012.

Challenge for technology
The Euro 4 limit values are considerably stricter than those of Euro 3. Reductions in the proportion of nitrogen oxide of approx. 30 % and in the proportion of particulate of approx. 80 % are required. The Euro 5 standard that comes into force as of 2009 prescribes another drastic reduction in the proportion of nitrogen oxide.

With the reduction of exhaust emission values through optimisation of the combustion alone, the boundaries of what is feasible have been reached: high engine output in conjunction with low fuel consumption can only be achieved if the combustion temperature is high. However, this means higher nitrogen oxide emissions.
This challenge is to develop a solution that drastically lowers the emissions - without diminishing power output and increasing fuel consumption.
