4 Specification of operating fluids
4�3 Coolant
2152
The coolant specification must meet requirements of:
ASTM D6210
ASTM D4985
JIS K-2234
SAE J814C, J1941, J1034 or J2036
To fill the cooling circuit, use the coolant in the mixing
ratio of 50%/50% with high-quality water (thermal pro-
tection up to -37 °C)�
Change the coolant every 2,000 hours, after 2 years at
the latest�
Note:
The machines are filled with a cooling solution with the Bant-
leon Avia Antifreeze NG coolant, specification SAE J 1034 at the
manufacturer's during the production.
It is a coolant containing silicates based on monoethylene gly-
col. It does not contain phosphates, nitrates, amines and bo-
rates.
There is an Avia NG label placed where the coolant is to be filled
into the machine.
Refill the cooling circuit with the same or a completely
miscible coolant of the required specification�
If the use of a different, immiscible coolant is neces-
sary, the cooling circuit must be completely drained and
cleaned with clean water repeatedly, at least 3 times�
However, it is not allowed to use a coolant of a different
specification than stated by the engine manufacturer�
The coolant protects the cooling system from freezing,
corrosion, cavitation, overheating etc�
It is forbidden to operate the machine without coolant
even for a short time�
It is forbidden to use a coolant of a different than pre-
scribed specification and base� The engine and the
cooling system can get damaged, which will void the
warranty�
Always check the ratio of antifreeze cooling agent in the
coolant with a refractometer before the winter season
starts�
Water quality
Do not use hard water with a higher content of calcium and
magnesium, which results in calculus formation, and with
a higher content of chlorides and sulphates, which causes cor-
rosion.
The maximum content of compounds of calcium and magne-
sium is 170 milligrams – hardness of water.
The maximum content of compounds of chlorine is 40 milli-
grams.
The maximum content of compounds of sulphur is 100 milli-
grams.
Safety instructions:
1� Protect your hands with protective gloves�
2� In case of ingestion, immediately seek medical
treatment�
3� In case of contact with skin or clothing, immediately
wash the affected area with clean water�
4� Do not mix different types of coolants� The mixture
can cause a chemical reaction with formation of
harmful substances�
