Coolant - Fayat Group BOMAG BM 1000/35 Service Manual

1.3.2.2 Winter fuel
1.3.2.3 Storage

1.3.3 Coolant

1.3.3.1 General
The following fuel specifications are recommended:
n EN 590
n ASTM D975 Grade-No. 1-D and 2-D
n JIS K 2204 Grade Fuel 1 and Grade Fuel 2 with lubrication
properties acc. to EN 590
For winter operation use only winter diesel fuel, to avoid clogging
because of paraffin separation.
At very low temperatures disturbing paraffin separation can also be
expected when using winter diesel fuel.
Diesel fuels suitable for temperatures down to -44 °C (-47 °F) are
available for Arctic climates.
NOTICE!
Danger of engine damage!
– The admixture of petroleum and the addition of
"flow enhancing additives" (fuel additives) is
not permitted.
Even traces of zinc, lead and copper can cause deposits in the
injection nozzles, especially in modern Common-Rail injection sys-
tems.
Zinc and lead coatings in refuelling systems and fuel lines are not
permitted.
Copper containing materials (copper lines, brass items) should be
avoided, because they can cause catalytic reactions in the fuel with
subsequent depositing in the injection system.
The coolant is a mixture of water and anti-corrosion/anti-freeze
agent.
The anti-corrosion/anti-freeze agent in the coolant has the fol-
lowing properties:
n Heat transfer
Corrosion protection
n
n Cavitation protection
n Frost protection
n Increase of boiling temperature
