Table 2: Concentration of coolant additives
The concentration should be tested every week, and/or according to the
maintenance schedule, using the testing instruments, reagents and instruc-
tions of the relevant supplier.
Chemical slushing oils can only provide effective protection if the right con-
centration is precisely maintained. This is why the concentrations recommen-
ded by MAN Diesel & Turbo (quality specifications in Volume 010.005 Engine
– operating manual 010.000.023-14) must be complied with in all cases.
These recommended concentrations may be other than those specified by
the manufacturer.
The concentration must be checked in accordance with the manufacturer's
instructions or the test can be outsourced to a suitable laboratory. If in
doubt, consult MAN Diesel & Turbo.
Small quantities of lube oil in coolant can be found by visual check during
regular water sampling from the expansion tank.
Regular analysis of coolant is very important for safe engine operation. We
can analyse fuel for customers at MAN Diesel & Turbo laboratory PrimeServ-
Lab.
