The importance of proper cooling system maintenance
One of our customers operating machines at a mine in Africa
compared components in engines using ELC against those using a
mixture of water and Supplement Coolant Additives (SCAs).
The cylinder liner shown on the top right (Figure A) is from an engine Figure A
operated for 5,300 hours using their usual conventional coolant had
pitting which penetrated the liner wall. The injector sleeves from the
same engine showed deposits and severe pitting.
The cylinder liner shown on the bottom right (Figure B) is from the
same engine run for 10,013 hours with ELC. The coolant side of the
liner is as new, with the injector sleeves in excellent condition.
