NOTICE
Do not mix types and specifications of coolant.
Do not mix types and specifications of SCAs.
Do not mix SCAs and Extenders.
Only use SCAs or Extender approved by coolant
manufacturer and are compatible with coolant.
Perkins engine cooling systems should be tested at
250 hour intervals for the concentration of SCA.
Additions of SCA are based on the results of the test.
SCA that is liquid may be needed at 250 hour
intervals.
Adding the SCA to Heavy-Duty Coolant
at the Initial Fill
Use the equation that is in Table 12 to determine the
amount of SCA that is required when the cooling
system is initially filled.
Coolants that conform to “ASTM D4985” and do not
conform to “ASTM D6210” will require addition of
SCA at initial fill.
Table 12
Equation For Adding The SCA To The Heavy-Duty Coolant At
The Initial Fill
V × 0.07 = X
V is the total volume of the cooling system.
X is the amount of SCA that is required.
Table 13 is an example for using the equation that is
in Table 12 .

Adding SCA to the Commercial Heavy-
Duty Coolant for Maintenance
Heavy-duty antifreezes of all types require periodic
additions of SCA.
Test the antifreeze periodically for the concentration
of SCA.
Additions of SCA are based on the results of the test.
The size of the cooling system determines the
amount of SCA that is needed.
Use the equation that is in Table 14 to determine the
amount of SCA that is required, if necessary:
Table 14
Equation for Adding the SCA to the Commercial Heavy-Duty
Coolant for Maintenance
V × 0.023 = X
V is the total volume of the cooling system.
X is the amount of SCA that is required.
Table 15 is an example for using the equation that is
in Table 14 .

Cleaning the System of Heavy-Duty
Antifreeze
Clean the cooling system for the following conditions.
• Clean the cooling system after used coolant is
drained or before the cooling system is filled with
new coolant
• Clean the cooling system whenever the coolant is
contaminated or whenever the coolant is foaming
• The cooling system must be free from rust, scale,
and any deposits, before corrosion inhibitors can
be effective
To clean the cooling system of heavy-duty antifreeze,
perform the following steps:
1.
Drain the cooling system.
2.
Fill the system with suitable distilled or deionized
water.
NOTICE
Most commercial cooling system cleaning agents are
corrosive and their use is not recommended by Per-
kins. If these cleaning agents have to be used to
clean heavy deposits, then they should not be left in
the system any longer then recommended by manu-
facturers. Also the engine temperature should not ex-
ceed 30° C (86° F).
The system must be thoroughly flushed with distilled
or deionized water after use of cleaning agents.
