FILTER 4232608 - Caterpillar

The Electronic Control Module (ECM) detects the following condition:
Engine coolant temperature that is greater than the default temperature of 107 °C (225 °F) for five secondsSystem Response:The event is logged. The ECM derates the engine from 0% to a maximum derate of 25% over a period of 480 seconds when the coolant temperature is above 107 °C (225 °F). The fuel limiting function will continue until the coolant temperature returns below 104 °C (219 °F) or until the maximum derate has been reached. After the temperature returns below 104 °C (219 °F) the derate due to high coolant temperature will be turned off.Possible Performance Effect:
