Manufacturer's description

Cat ELC Extender is an additive used with Cat ELC (Extended Life Coolant), the extended-life coolant developed, tested and approved by Caterpillar for Cat and original equipment manufacturer (OEM) diesel and gasoline engines that use the organic acid technology corrosion-inhibitor system. Cat ELC Extender is added only once during the coolant's service life to renew the inhibitor package: it exceeds Cat EC-1 performance requirements and protects against cylinder liner/block pitting and cavitation erosion. It should be added at 6,000 hours (or 500,000 km / 300,000 miles for Cat-powered on-highway trucks) — roughly the mid-point of the coolant's life — after which Cat ELC performance is ensured to the full 12,000-hour or 1,000,000 km (600,000 mile) life. The system should then be drained and flushed with clean water at the end of that interval; no cleaning agents are needed. Cat ELC meets or exceeds Cat EC-1, ASTM D-3306, ASTM D-6210, SAE J1034 and TMC RP-329/RP-338, and also meets the performance requirements of Cummins, Detroit Diesel, International, Mack and Volvo. Distributed in Romania by Bergerat Monnoyeur.

Applications

• - Intended use (per safety data sheet): Heavy Duty Coolant

Performance & benefits

• Factory-Fill—Used as standard factory-fill for all Cat machine cooling systems
• Lower Maintenance Costs—Reduces engine coolant and additive costs by as much as 500% compared to conventional coolants. It eliminates the need for supplemental coolant additives, extends coolant change-out intervals and reduces disposal requirements
• Advanced Metal Protection—Incorporates an advanced formula technology with organic acid additive corrosion inhibitors, such as a combination of mono and dicarboxylates for maximum protection of copper, solder, brass, steel, cast iron and aluminum
• Cat ELC for Maximum Coolant Lifedetection Protect your investment with Cat S •O•S Coolant
• Cat DEACTM Analysis, the ultimate detection and diagnostic tool for your equipment. We recommend S•O•S Level 1 3000 Hour Life Coolant Analysis according to the engine’s 322,000 km (200,000 miles) or 3 years** (whichever comes first) Operation and Maintenance Manual, and Level 2 Cat Supplemental Coolant Additives Every 250 Hours or 25,000 km (15,000 miles) Coolant Analysis annually for all your Cat equipment.
