The expansion tank compensates for thermal expansion of the coolant, serves for venting of
the circuits and provides a sufficient static pressure for the circulating pumps.
Design data:
min. 10% of the total system volume
Volume
NOTE
The maximum pressure at the engine must not be exceeded in case an electrically
driven pump is installed significantly higher than the engine.
Concerning the water volume in the engine, see chapter Technical data.
The expansion tank should be equipped with an inspection hatch, a level gauge, a low level
alarm and necessary means for dosing of cooling water additives.
