ELC (Extended Life Coolant)
ELC (Extended Life Coolant) is standard equipment. The
maintenance interval for ELC is five years or 12,000 hours. A
nameplate on the coolant expansion tank identifies units with
ELC (see “Safety Decals and Locations”). The new engine
coolant, Chevron Extended Life Coolant, is RED in color
instead of the previous GREEN or BLUE-GREEN colored
conventional coolants.
NOTE: The use of 50/50% pre-mixed ELC is recommended
to assure that de-ionized water is being used. If 100% full
strength concentrate is used, de-ionized or distilled water is
recommended instead of tap water to insure the integrity of
the cooling system is maintained.
EMI 3000
EMI 3000 is an extended maintenance interval package. It is
standard equipment. The EMI 3000 package consists of the
following key components:
• EMI 3000-Hour Cyclonic Air Cleaner Assembly and Air
Cleaner Element
• EMI 3000-Hour Fuel Filter (black with gold lettering)
• EMI 3000-Hour Dual Element Oil Filter (black with gold
lettering)
• API Rating CI-4 Mineral Oil
• Five Year or 12,000 Hour ELC (Extended Life Coolant)
The EMI package allows standard maintenance intervals to be
extended to 3,000 hours, or 2 years, whichever occurs first.
NOTE: Units equipped with the EMI 3000 package do
require regular inspection in accordance with Thermo King's
maintenance recommendations.
NOTE: The new EMI 3000 oil filters and new EMI 3000 air
cleaners are NOT interchangeable with the older style oil
filters and air cleaners.
CAUTION: Do not add “GREEN” or
“BLUE-GREEN” conventional coolant to cooling
systems using “RED” Extended Life Coolant, except
in an emergency. If conventional coolant is added to
Extended Life Coolant, the coolant must be changed
after 2 years instead of 5 years.
