The coolant has the important function of preventing corrosion as well as preventing freezing.
Even in the areas where freezing is not an issue, the use of antifreeze coolant is essential.
Komatsu machines are supplied with Komatsu Supercoolant (AF-NAC). Komatsu Supercoolant (AF-NAC) has
excellent anticorrosion, antifreeze and cooling properties and can be used continuously for 2 years or 4000 hours.
Komatsu Supercoolant (AF-NAC) is strongly recommended wherever available.
To maintain the anticorrosion properties of Supercoolant (AF-NAC), always keep the density of Supercoolant
between 30% and 68%.
When deciding the ratio of antifreeze to water, check the lowest temperature in the past, and decide from the mix-
ing table given below.
It is actually better to estimate and temperature about 10°C lower when deciding the mixing ratio.
The mixing ratio depends on the ambient temperature, but it should always be a minimum of 30% by volume (anti-
freeze/total amount of coolant x 100).
The freezing temperature of undiluted antifreeze is -15°C. Do not store undiluted antifreeze at a temperature of
below -15°C.
Mixing rate of water and antifreeze
WARNING
Antifreeze is flammable, so keep it away from flame.
Antifreeze is toxic. When removing the drain plug, be careful not to get water containing antifreeze on
you. If it gets in your eyes, flush your eyes with large amount of fresh water and see a doctor at once.
Use antifreeze and appropriate water for diluting (for details, see “COOLANT AND WATER FOR DILUTION (4-6)“)
We recommend use of an antifreeze density gauge to control the mixing proportions.
Prepare a container whose capacity is larger than the specified coolant volume to catch drained coolant.
Prepare a hose to supply antifreeze coolant and water.
1.
Stop the engine and tighten 2 valves of the corrosion resistor.
