COOLANT SPECIFICATIONS
The use of the correct coolant is important for good heat
transfer and protection of liquid-cooled engines. Coolants
used in these engines must be mixtures of good quality
water (distilled or de-ionized), special coolant additives
and if necessary freeze protection.
Coolant that is not to manufacturer's specification will
result in mechanical damage of the engine.
The freezing point of the coolant must be lower than the
freezing point that can occur in the area. The difference
must be at least 5 °C (9 °F). If the coolant freezes, it may
crack the cylinder block, radiator or coolant pump.
Consult the engine's operation manual and follow the
manufacturer's directions.
PARCOOL EG
PARCOOL EG is the only coolant that has been tested and
approved by all engine manufacturers currently in use in
Atlas Copco compressors and generators.
Atlas Copco's PARCOOL EG extended life coolant is the
new range of organic coolants purpose designed to meet
the needs of modern engines. PARCOOL EG can help
prevent leaks caused by corrosion. PARCOOL EG is also
fully compatible with all sealants and gasket types
developed to join different materials used within an
engine.
PARCOOL EG is a ready to use Ethylene Glycol based
coolant, premixed in an optimum 50/50 dilution ratio, for
antifreeze protection guaranteed to -40°C (-40°F).
Because PARCOOL EG inhibits corrosion, deposit
formation is minimized. This effectively eliminates the
problem of restricted flow through the engine coolant
ducts and the radiator, minimizing the risk for engine
overheating and possible failure.
It reduces water pump seal wear and has excellent stability
when subjected to sustained high operating temperatures.
PARCOOL EG is free of nitride and amines to protect
your health and the environment. Longer service life
reduces the amount of coolant produced and needing
disposal to minimize environmental impact.
PARCOOL EG
To ensure protection against corrosion, cavitation and
formation of deposits, the concentration of the additives in
the coolant must be kept between certain limits, as stated
by the manufacturer's guidelines.
Topping up the coolant with water only, changes the
concentration and is therefore not allowed.
Liquid-cooled engines are factory-filled with this type of
coolant mixture.
PARCOOL EG Concentrate
HANDLING PARCOOL EG
PARCOOL EG should be stored at ambient temperatures,
while periods of exposure to temperatures above 35°C
(95°F) should be minimized. PARCOOL EG can be stored
Never remove the cooling system filler cap
while coolant is hot.The system may be
under pressure. Remove the cap slowly and
only when coolant is at ambient
temperature. A sudden release of pressure
from a heated cooling system can result in
personal injury from the splash of hot
coolant.
It is strongly recommended to use Atlas
Copco branded coolant.
Never mix different coolants and mix the
coolant components outside the cooling
system.
