Manufacturer's description
Cat ELC Advanced Concentrate is the concentrate version of Cat ELC Advanced (Extended Life Coolant), developed, tested and approved by Caterpillar for Cat and original equipment manufacturer (OEM) diesel, gasoline and gas fuel engines. It is mixed with water (typically 50/50) to produce the same coolant available as a ready-mixed premix. Cat ELC Advanced uses advanced organic acid additive inhibitor technology for maximum protection of copper, solder, brass, steel, cast iron and aluminum, with excellent passivation and flux compatibility (including controlled atmosphere brazing materials), effective high-temperature aluminum protection that eliminates nitrite depletion, and expanded elastomer compatibility. It is phosphate, borate, silicate, 2EHA and amine free, and offers an extended service life of up to 3,000 hours or 322,000 km (200,000 miles) / 3 years in Cat machines and commercial engines, and up to 20,000 hours or 6 years in Cat-powered on-highway trucks (whichever comes first, with annual S•O•S Level 2 coolant analysis). A one-time addition of Cat ELC Extender at 6,000 hours (or 500,000 km / 300,000 miles for trucks) exceeds Cat EC-1 requirements and extends protection to the full drain interval. Cat ELC Advanced meets or exceeds ASTM D6210, ASTM D3306, Caterpillar EC-1, Deutz DQC CB-14, TMC RP 364/351 (color), and the phosphate-free and silicate-free requirements of European and Japanese OEMs respectively. Distributed in Romania by Bergerat Monnoyeur.
Applications
- - Intended use (per safety data sheet): Heavy Duty Coolant
Performance & benefits
- Advanced metal protection incorporates an advanced formula technology with organic acid additive inhibitors for maximum protection of copper, solder, brass, steel, cast iron, and aluminum
- Excellent passivation and flux compatibility [the formula is compatible with controlled atmosphere brazing (CAB) material and fast passivator properties]
- Excellent aluminum protection (the formula effectively protects aluminum in high temperature applications and eliminates nitrite depletion)
- Expanded elastomer compatibility provides improved mix of inhibitors package
