- 124 - As the coolant additive is used, the concentration in the cooling system may increase by 3%~6% to prevent corrosion. In order to excessive antirust in the cooling system of the engine, the concentration of the coolant additive shall not exceed the maximum 6% we recommend. For a higher concentration of the additive, precipitation may be formed possibly at the high-temperature surface of the cooling system, and an adiabatic layer may be formed to weaken the heat exchange performance of the engine. The decrease of the heat exchange rate will possibly cause the crack of the cylinder end and other high-temperature parts. The higher concentration of the additive will also increase wear of the water pump’s seal. As the premixed coolant of the anti-icing liquid is not used, the coolant additive shall be added. As the coolant is added into the new or reworked engine for the first time, if the antifreezing agent above is not used, 1L ancillary coolant additive or corresponding matter shall be added in each 30L coolant, so the concentration of the ancillary additive in the cooling system occupies up 3%~6%. In order to maintain the concentration of 3%~6%, every 250 hours or in oil replacement (later or first), the ancillary additive shall be added. |
