When a Caterpillar Extended Life Coolant (ELC) is used, an Extender must be added to the cooling system. See the Special Publication, SEBU6250, "Coolant Recommendations" for all cooling system requirements.Use a coolant conditioner test kit in order to check the concentration of the coolant.
Use only Caterpillar products or commercial products that have passed Caterpillar EC-1 specification for pre-mixed or concentrated coolants.Use only Caterpillar Extender with Extended Life Coolant.Mixing Extended Life Coolant with other products reduces the Extended Life Coolant service life. Failure to follow the recommendations can reduce cooling system components life unless appropriate corrective action is performed.
