Note: These coolant change intervals are only achievable with annual S O S Services Level 2 coolant sampling and analysis.Cat ELC can be recycled into conventional coolants.Cat ELC, Cat DEAC, Cat Extender, and Cat SCA are available in several differently sized containers.Refer to Special Publication, SEBU6251, "Caterpillar Commercial Diesel Engine Fluids Recommendations" for additional information that relates to coolants.Coolant Capacities
To properly maintain the cooling system, the total cooling system capacity must be determined. The total cooling system capacity will vary between individual installations. The total cooling system capacity can include the following components: engine, expansion tank, heat exchanger, radiator, keel cooler and piping.Refer to the specifications that are provided by Caterpillar or the OEM of the installation. Record the total cooling system capacity in the appropriate Table.Cooling System

These recommendations are subject to change without notice. Contact your local Caterpillar dealer for the most up to date recommendations.
Before selecting a grease, the performance requirements must be determined. Consult the OEM of the equipment for the recommended grease. Then, consult with your Caterpillar dealer for a list of greases that have the performance specifications and the available sizes of the container.Note: Always choose a grease that meets the recommendations or a grease that exceeds the recommendations that are specified by the equipment manufacturer for the application.Note: Purge all of the old grease from the joint when the grease is changed from one type of grease to another type of grease. Purge all of the old grease from the joint when a different supplier of grease is used. Some greases are not chemically compatible. Consult your supplier in order to determine if the greases are compatible.If you are in doubt about the compatibility of the old grease and the new grease, purge all of the old grease from the joint.Note: All Caterpillar greases are compatible with each other.For more information about choosing the correct lubricating grease, refer to Special Publication, SEBU6251, "Caterpillar Commercial Diesel Engine Fluids Recommendations".
