Before cleaning the aftercooler core, determine if the aftercooler requires cleaning. Use the 152-2067 Differential Pressure Gauge to measure the differential pressure of the air side of the aftercooler. When the air side differential pressure reaches 7 kPa (1.0 psi) at full rated power, clean the aftercooler core.Cleaning the Aftercooler
See the Service Manual, "Disassembly and Assembly" module for instructions on removal, disassembly, assembly, and installation.Note: The following procedure may be used for cleaning both the aftercooler core and the oil cooler core.
Remove the core. Disassemble the core.
Turn the core upside-down in order to remove debris.
Do not use a high pressure spray for cleaning the fins of the core. A high pressure spray can damage the surface of the fins and reduce the flow of air through the core.
Do not use a high concentration of caustic cleaner to clean the core. A high concentration of caustic cleaner can attack the internal metals of the core and cause leakage. Only use the recommended concentration of cleaner.
Back flush the core with cleaner. Caterpillar recommends the use of Hydrosolv liquid cleaner. Consult your Cat dealer for the part numbers and quantities that are available.Use a 2 to 5 percent concentration of the cleaner at temperatures up to 93 °C (200 °F).
Steam-clean the core in order to remove any residue. Flush the fins of the aftercooler core. Remove any other trapped debris.
Wash the core with hot, soapy water. Rinse the core thoroughly with clean water.
Personal injury can result from air pressure.Personal injury can result without following proper procedure. When using pressure air, wear a protective face shield and protective clothing.Maximum air pressure at the nozzle must be less than 205 kPa (30 psi) for cleaning purposes.
Dry the core with compressed air. Direct the air in the reverse direction of the normal flow.
Inspect the core in order to ensure cleanliness. Pressure-test the core. Many shops that service radiators are equipped to perform pressure tests. If necessary, repair the core.
Install the core. For more information on cleaning the core, consult your Cat dealer.
