Abstract

A device for introducing a liquid reducing agent into an exhaust gas purification system includes a gas line for receiving and carrying a gas, a reducing agent line for receiving and carrying a liquid reducing agent, a mixing chamber for mixing the reducing agent with the gas, the mixing chamber fluidically connected to the gas line and to the aid reducing agent line, a metering valve disposed in the reducing agent line; and a control device for controlling a pressure in the reducing agent line dependent upon a gas pressure in the gas line. The control device can also be used for controlling the reducing agent throughput in the reducing agent line in dependence on the gas pressure in the gas line.
