HELLA NOx sensors underpin needs of growing diesel parc

With a million more vans on the road compared with a decade ago, HELLA said it is supporting garages by making sure they have access to an ever-expanding NOx sensor range.

As most of the vans run on diesel, together with the huge number of diesel cars in the parc, HELLA’s NOx sensors include more than 115 references covering over 30,000 PC and CV applications.

HELLA said the overwhelming popularity of diesel vehicles in the last 20 years means there are still millions of examples on UK roads requiring a host of parts, crucially including NOx sensors.

Meanwhile, research from European advocacy group Transport and Environment recently showed there are one million more vans on the road compared with 2014, with most running on diesel.

Ongoing concerns around diesel emissions, and continually tightening legislation means that it is important that these vehicles are running at the optimum level, with the NOx sensor playing a vital role.

“HELLA NOx sensors for passenger cars and light and heavy commercial vehicles offer high resistance to engine vibrations and increased temperatures,” said Helen Goldingay, HELLA’s UK marketing and communications manager.

“With our OE knowledge and expertise, both 12V and 24V applications are catered for. This means garages servicing cars, LCVs and CVs can rely on HELLA for their NOx sensor needs.”
