4.3.1) Warnings for operating with waterless coolant
- Water or coolant containing water must never be added to the cooling system!
- The max. water content must not exceed 3.6 %; it can be tested using a Brix refractometer.
- Any water present in the cooling system is separated out as vapor. This can cause the cooling
system to fail due to insufficient coolant quantity.
- If EVANS
®
coolant is not available locally for servicing the cooling system, a conventional cool-
ant based on pure 100% ethylene glycol can be used temporarily. However, the coolant must
be replaced again with EVANS
®
within the next 15 days.
