When your Cat engine from 2018–2024 needs to manage NOx emissions, the SCR (Selective Catalytic Reduction) system depends on precision dosing. One of the underappreciated yet critical parts is the DEF doser injector, and for Cat machines the OEM 398-5386 version ensures that dosing is accurate, reliable, and tuned to the manufacturer’s specs. If your doser injector is off, the balance fails—and your system starts throwing errors, losing efficiency, or derating.
-
Delivers measured amounts of Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) into the exhaust stream at the exact moments needed
-
Works under ECU control to adjust dosing based on load, temperature, and other conditions
-
Helps avoid issues such as emissions fault codes, SCR malfunction warnings, and engine derates
-
Built to OEM 398-5386 tolerances to ensure compatibility, spray pattern integrity, and correct calibration
-
Designed to survive thermal stress, vibration, and exposure to exhaust-side chemicals
A failing or degraded doser injector doesn’t always make a dramatic entrance—it often creeps in through creeping inefficiencies or warning light flickers. Swapping in a correct OEM 398-5386 injector restores precise urea delivery, protects your SCR system, and helps your engine stay compliant and dependable. In the world of emission systems, accuracy in dosing isn’t optional—it’s essential.
