Unit Description

Diesel Engine
SLXi units use a 4-cylinder, water cooled, direct injection
diesel engine. The engine is coupled directly to the compressor
on standard units. Belts transmit power to the to fans (behind
the condenser coil/radiator), water pump, and alternator on all
models.
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. 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 5-Micron 3000-Hour Fuel Filter
• EMI 3000-Hour Dual Element Oil Filter
• 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.
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.
