Coolant properties
Properties of the cooling medium
Water or a water/anti-freeze mixture that meets the relevant requirements can be used as a
cooling medium. The cooling medium must be chemically neutral, clean, and not contain any
solids.
The cooling water must fulfill the following requirements over the long term:
