MECHANICAL INSTRUMENTATION
INSTALLATIONS
The exhaust gas temperature gauge, coolant temperature gauge and oil pressure gauges are supplied
as loose items.
Exhaust gas temperature gauge is mounted on the exhaust pipe by the 1/2‖ NPT fitting after the
exhaust spark arrestor, with the probe protruding into the exhaust gas.
To fit coolant temperature gauge, remove the 3/8‖ adaptor and 5/8‖ UNF thread should be mounted
directly into the thermostat housing.
Oil pressure indicator heads should be panel mounted at a convenient location.
The capillary lines for these gauges must be adequately protected against external damage and free
from twisting and bucking. Excess line length must be accommodated by coiling, not cutting off the
surplus. Do not place the line past hold or cold sources. When installing the probe, ensure that it is not
forced against any obstruction when tightening the nut. This can lead to an increase in pressure within
the probe and cause incorrect readings. If the probe is touching any obstruction, withdraw
approximately 3mm before tightening the nut.
MAINTENANCE
Visually check the capillary line for damage or deterioration. Check that all fixings are secure and
inspect the unit for mechanical damage. The function of the gauge does not require any special
maintenance procedure, but frequent checks must be made to ensure the instrument is working
correctly and accurately.
EXHAUST SYSTEM
DESCRIPTION
Gases to liquid heat exchangers are fabricated structures utilizing radial, serrated finned tubes for
maximum heat transfer rate. Their primary purpose is to reduce engine exhaust gas temperature and
surface temperature to below the specified ‗T‘ class limit. Manicoolers also function as explosion proof
enclosures intended to contain an exhaust system detonation and, as such are designed and tested to
withstand a 10 bar routine pressure test. They are designed to suit individual installations/duty and
incorporate a water cooled manifold and are fixed directly to the engine cylinder head. The cooler is
connected in series with the engine coolant system.
Materials:
The outlet box in the other hand acts as an interface between the flametraps and remaining exhaust
system.

Typical Manicooler Installation
EXHAUST SYSTEM
Drain the engine of coolant and remove the existing manifold, studs and gaskets. Clean the exposed
cylinder head face thoroughly. Fit the cylinder head plugs into the unused central stud holes in the
cylinder head using thread sealant to block off the coolant passage. Fit the studs into the remaining
stud fixing holes with the ½‖ thread length end of each stud located into the cylinder head. Slide the
gasket supplied and the Pyroban manicooler over the studs into position.
Using the washers and hex nuts supplied tighten the manicooler to the cylinder head. The customer
must supply suitable support brackets from the side of the engine block to the manicooler gusset. Drill
the manicooler gussets as required but do not drill or weld any other part of the manicooler body. Fit
the exhaust flametrap (or DUMMY exhaust flametrap) and the exhaust outlet box on to the top flange
face of the manicooler using the fixing kit supplied. The system must not be used in a hazardous area
without a standard exhaust flametrap fitted.
MAINTENANCE
On major overhauls or in the event of shutdown due to excessive exhaust temperature not reconciled
by other checks, clean the manicooler interior with a carbon removing solvent. Clean the manicooler
whenever the carbon built-up inside exceeds a thin layering of surfaces in the exhaust gas flow. The
frequency of cleaning is dependent on local operating conditions, but where regular idling occurs
cleaning may be needed more frequently. When washing parts in or with a cleaning solvent, provide
adequate ventilation, safety equipment and protection, as stated in the product safety data sheets.
Remove the manicooler from the engine, discard the existing gasket and blank off the exhaust outlet
of the engine. With the outlet uppermost, fill the casing with the solvent and allow to soak for 4-5
hours. Empty and thoroughly hose out the interior. Remove all fluid from the manicooler and repeat the
cleaning process if necessary with clean solvent, empty again and thoroughly hose out.
Blow out the manicooler gas away with an air line and then refit the manicooler to the engine using a
new gasket. Run the engine until warm, top up the coolant system and check the coolant and gas
connection for leaks.
After cleaning, subject to the method and thoroughness of cleaning, loose carbon particles will be
released during the initial period of operation. These particles may cause additional failing of the
flametrap which will require more frequent cleaning until the deposits have stabilized. Normal exhaust
flametrap service life will be resumed.
EXHAUST SYSTEM
DESCRIPTION
Dry exhaust flexible assemblies are constructed from braided or unbraided steel corrugated hose to
BS 6501:1991 part 1 and mild steel collars and flanges to suit application.
Suitable for use on IC engine exhaust systems with the following parameters:
INSTALLATION
The dry exhaust flexible should be fitted as close as possible to the outlet from the exhaust gas
cooler/manicooler. Fit the dry exhaust flexible to the outlet flange on the exhaust outlet box using the
gasket and fixings supplied. Ensure that no undue strain or torque loading is imposed on the dry
exhaust flexible assembly during assembly or when tightening fixings.
When refitting, ensure that all fixings are secure and new gaskets are used on all flange connections
Before commencing any maintenance operations make sure that the correct procedure has been
obtained from the person in authority. A record must be kept of all maintenance and repair in line with
BS EN60079-14. After maintenance and before use, the dry exhaust flexible assembly must be
checked and approved by the person in authority.
Ensure new gaskets are fitted (where applicable) and that fixings are secure when re-fitting the dry
exhaust flexible assembly.
EXHAUST SYSTEM
DESCRIPTION
Exhaust flametraps are designed and tested to extinguish explosions created in the exhaust system.
The flametrap is sized to operate within the backpressure limit of the engine. All Pyroban plate type
exhaust flame arresters are constructed from stainless steel. Exhaust flametraps supplied can be CT
type or standard. The CT designates that the thickness is machined to a close tolerance limit. CT
flametraps are used where more than 1 flametrap is fitted on the exhaust system by a common outlet
box, not individual outlet boxes. CT exhaust flametraps are identified by handles of flat rather than
round section. CT exhaust flametraps must not be interchanged with standard (i.e. round handled)
exhaust flametraps used elsewhere
The engine must not be used in a hazardous area without exhaust flametraps fitted. The Person in
Authority must be consulted before fitting a dummy exhaust flametrap to the system. Dummy exhaust
flametraps may only be used if the system is being used in a safe area.
Exhaust flametraps are heavy items and appropriate lifting equipment should be used to handle them.
Ensure cooler, flametrap and outlet box flanges are clean and free from damage or rust. Slide the
exhaust flametraps (or DUMMY flametraps) between the exhaust gas cooler and the outlet box. Do not
use sealant between joints. The exhaust flametraps fixing kit include heavy duty springs. These are
designed to push the outlet box away from the exhaust gas cooler when the bolts are released
allowing the exhaust flametraps to be removed for cleaning. Tighten the fixings to correct torque.
MAINTENANCE
No gaskets are required on the mating faces with the exhaust gas cooler body or outlet box. No
maintenance is required on a DUMMY exhaust flametraps (if fitted/supplied). Exhaust flametraps must
be cleaned every 12 hours or more frequently if required. To remove the exhaust flametraps, slacken
the retaining bolts (fixing kit) then carefully slide the exhaust flametraps out using the handle. Clean
the exhaust flametraps by soaking in carbon removing solvent. Never clean the exhaust flametraps by
inserting probes as the fine passages could be enlarged thereby impairing the flametraps
performance. Check mating surfaces, they should be free from damage, and rust. Refit in reverse
order. No gaskets are fitted. When washing parts in or with a cleaning solvent, provide adequate
ventilation, safety equipment and protection, as stated in the product safety data sheets.

EXHAUST SYSTEM
STAINLESS STEEL EXHAUST SPARK ARRESTOR
DESCRIPTION
Designed for fitting into and suppressing sparks emitted by a diesel engine exhaust system (engine
configurations with a nominal inlet velocity of 55-75m/s). Made from stainless steel, it is designed as a
cylindrical ‗can‘ with inlet and outlet pipe studs containing serrated and louvered inner tube welded to
it.
INSTALLATION
The direction of the flow of gases is indicated on the exhaust spark arrestor and must be strictly
adhered to. Fit the exhaust spark arrestor to the outlet flange on the dry exhaust flexible using gasket
and fixings supplied. Tighten to the correct torque. Ensure that the gas enters the exhaust spark
arrestor via the port marked 'inlet'.
Although the item is of stainless steel construction for long life, the following points should be
observed: When an exhaust gas cooler is fitted, operation at low power can cause exhaust gas
temperatures to fall below the dew point. This will lead to warm acid condensate collecting, particularly
in the exhaust spark arrestor, leading eventually to corrosion. To alleviate this problem, it is advisable
to remove the exhaust spark arrestor if mounted in the horizontal position and empty the condensate
which has collected. After long periods of idling, run on load before shutting down the engine, even if
the engine is warm. If the exhaust appears ‗steamy‘, continue running on load until the exhaust clears
before shutting down the engine.
In an offshore environment, condensates may contain chlorides, increasing the risk of corrosion. To
minimize this risk:
a) The induction air intake should be positioned and/or protected so as to reduce the ingestion of
marine spray or mist when the engine is running.
b) The exhaust outlet should be positioned and/or protected so as to reduce the ingress of marine
spray or mist when the engine is not running. Raincaps should always be fitted to the exhaust outlet if
there is a danger of this occurring.
MAINTENANCE
Check the exterior of the exhaust spark arrestor for damage or distress and check the pipework and
joints for leaks. Remove the exhaust spark arrestor and lightly tap with a soft mallet to loosen deposits,
then shake out all loose particles. Visually examine the interior of the exhaust spark arrestor via the
inlet and outlet ports.
EXHAUST SYSTEM
TURBOCHARGER
DESCRIPTION
The turbocharger is a device composed of two sealed chambers containing fan blades, also known as
turbines, which are connected by a shaft.
The greater the load on the engine, the higher the volume of exhaust and thus the more fresh air and
by extension, fuel—that is pumped into the engine, increasing output.
The unit supplied for hazardous area use, includes a water -cooled exhaust housing. To maintain
surface temperature limit. The oil bearing housing may also be water-cooled.
INSTALLATION
Ensure the turbocharger is clean and free from any packing material. Fit gaskets (not supplied) to the
turbocharger.
Align the water cooled exhaust flexible with the turbocharger. Mark out the position of the required
fixing holes on the flange of the water cooled exhaust flexible with the fixings on the turbocharger (if
required). Drill the required number of holes in the flange of the water cooled exhaust flexible (if
required).
Secure the water cooled exhaust pipe work flexible to the turbocharger using suitable fixings (not
supplied) in accordance with standard torque values. Once the water cooled exhaust flexible has been
secured to the turbocharger, firmly secure the exhaust gas cooler/exhaust plenum assembly to the
mounting frame ensuring that no undue strain is placed on the water cooled exhaust flexible or the
turbocharger when the fixings are tightened.
MAINTENANCE
Strip down and rebuild with new bearings and seals every 50000 hours.
It is important to remember that the turbocharger uses the same oil as the engine and therefore
regular oil and filter changes will enhance turbo life. Only have the turbo removed and attended to
when the cause of a problem has been isolated to the turbocharger by someone competent to do so.
The occasional dynamometer test to check that all settings are correct can be worthwhile.

EXHAUST SYSTEM
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Ensure all water cooled components are full of coolant with appropriate bleeds attached. It is not
advised to run the water cooled system without coolant.
Ensure all exhaust system temperature monitoring devices are installed and connected to control
system. Carry out pre-start checks as defined by the engine manufacturer.
When the engine is run up from cold, the system sees a transition period where exhaust gas
temperature difference between the gas and the exhaust system steel work will precipitate
condensation. This precipitation period is at its longest when the engine is run up from cold and at its
shortest when the engine is directly put on to full load -full speed.
When the engine and exhaust system have heated up beyond the dew point of the gas, the
precipitation of condensate will stop and any residue in the system will be cleared by the hot exhaust
gas.
If what appears to be condensate continue to form, check the coolant system for leaks.
Operation at low power can cause exhaust gas temperatures to fall below the dew point. This will lead
to warm acidic condensate collecting in the exhaust system, with possible failure due to corrosion.
To reduce this problem, it is important to avoid shutting an engine down before it is fully warmed, and
to minimize long periods of idling.
After long periods of idling, run the engine on load before shutting down the engine, even if the engine
is warm.
In an offshore environment, condensates may contain chlorides, increasing the rate of corrosion.
b) The exhaust outlet should be positioned and/or protected so as to reduce the ingress of marine
spray or mist when the engine is not running. Raincaps should always be fitted to the exhaust outlet if
there is a danger of this occurring.
INLET SYSTEM
DESCRIPTION
A range of 12 AND 24 volt EExe solenoid operated diesel engine air intake closure valves based on
the standard Chalwyn slimifit 3‖, 5‖ and 8‖ butterfly valves. These products are available in basic
flange mounted form, but can also be supplied fitted with hose adaptors.
These valves are designed to ―fail safe‖ in that if electrical power is lost for any reason the valve will
revert to the closed condition.
Valve bodies and discs are all manufactured from corrosion resistant hard anodized aluminium with a
PTFE coating. Spindles and mechanisms are manufactured from 316 stainless steel.

INLET SYSTEM
INSTALLATION
1. In the case of a naturally aspirated engine, the Chalwyn SVX shut down valve should generally be
fitted as close to the engine air intake manifold as possible. If an air intake flame trap is also fitted,
the SVX valve must be installed upstream (air cleaner side) of the flame trap.
2. If the engine is turbocharged, it may be necessary to fit the valve upstream of the turbocharger in
order to avoid temperatures in excess of the maximum permitted for the solenoid. Again if an air
intake flametrap is also fitted the valve must be installed upstream of the flame trap.
3. Where more than one SVX valve is installed on an engine, as in the case of an engine with
multiple intake pipes, the shut down valve control system must be arranged to ensure all valves
close simultaneously.
4. This valve may be installed either horizontally or vertically.
5. If hose adaptors are used, the mating hose should be of a reinforced type, provide adequate
support for the valve and prevent excessive vibration. If necessary, additional support brackets
mounted form the engine should be considered.
6. Particular care must be taken to ensure the integrity of the intake pipework between the Chalwyn
valve and intake manifold. Ideally metal pipework should be used and any gaps kept as short as
possible, (taking into account any relative movement) and closed by reinforced hose.
7. Any engine crankcase breather connections into the intake system between the SVX valve and
engine, or any internal crankcase breather arrangement venting directly into the engine intake
ports must be sealed and replaced by an external breather system venting either to atmosphere or
to the intake system upstream of the shutdown valve. External breather system kits for various
engine types are available from Chalwyn.
OPERATION
When powered the solenoid holds the air intake shut down valve in the open (engine run) condition.
On loss of power the spring within the shut down valve assembly moves the valve to the closed
(engine stop) position, i.e. failure of power supply gives a fail safe (engine stopped) condition.
MAINTENANCE
WEEKLY: Visually check the valve, solenoid, cable and cable gland for damage or deterioration.
Withdraw from service if significant damage or deterioration is observed.
NOTE: Chalwyn hazardous area solenoids are sealed units. The cable gland must not be
loosened or removed. If a service problem occurs, the valve should be returned to
Chalwyn for repair.
Monthly: Check that the fasteners locating the shut down valve and any associated intake
system or support bracket fasteners are securely tightened.
Check that any flexible hoses in the engine intake between the SVX valve and engine
are free from damage and suitable for further service.
Run engine, preferably at low idle. Use shut down control system emergency stop to
close the intake shut down valve. The engine should stop within a few seconds. If not
check there are no leaks in the engine air intake system between the SVX valve and
engine. If this does not resolve the problem remove the SVX valve to return to
Chalwyn for investigation.
INLET SYSTEM
Before installation, ensure that any packing material is blown well clear of all components.
The air flow direction is marked on the ILS inlet flametrap and must be strictly adhered to.
Remove the air shutdown flap assembly, if fitted.
Position the ILS unit in correct location for application, if in doubt contact Pyroban. Complete seal with
fixings and gasket for flanges, or hose or hose and clamps for pipe end and adapters.
Re-site the air shutdown flap directly on top of the ILS unit and secure using a suitable gasket
and fixings.
Make good all pipework connections from the ILS unit to the inlet air cleaner.
MAINTENANCE
Do not clean the ILS inlet flametrap by inserting probes as the fine passages could be enlarged
thereby impairing the flametrap performance.
If necessary, the ILS inlet flametrap should be washed in a suitable solvent. The flametrap should then
be blown through using compressed air. Ensure eye protection is worn during this operation.
Visually examine inside the ILS inlet flametrap via the inlet and outlet ports by holding up to a light,
ensuring that the passages are clear.
Before refitting, ensure that the ILS inlet flametrap casing and flanges are not damaged or corroded.
When assemblies with flanged connections are dismantled, new gaskets must always be used when
refitting. Do not use sealer.

COOLING SYSTEM
COOLING SYSTEM
INSTALLATION
The cooling system must be sized to the specified amount of heat rejection from the Pyroban exhaust
equipment. This is additional to the normal heat rejection from the engine and any other water cooled
items such as transmission oil coolers. The exhaust gas cooler is designed to accept the full flow of
the coolant circuit before the coolant enters the engine.
A permanent vent line approximately 1/4" bore should be connected to the vent socket provided on
the exhaust gas cooler, sloping continually upward to a high point in the cooling system, e.g. the
expansion tank. These circuits should be connected to suitable tappings on the engine with sufficient
pressure differential between them to ensure adequate flow.
Permanent vent lines should be connected to the highest point in the cooling system. Air vent lines
must be taken back to the radiator top tank or expansion tank, from any point on components or pipes
in the coolant system likely to trap air (use 3/16‖ or 1/4" i/d max.).
Ensure that the radiator top tank volume is suitably sized to accommodate the extra cooling system
volume and operate normally right up to the maximum coolant temperature.
Keep all pipe runs to a minimum and use long radius bends where possible.
Fit a 13 psi pressure cap on the expansion bottle, unless engine manufacturer specifies otherwise
follow engine manufacturers guideline on system fill.
MAINTENANCE
Thermostat Replacement
When fitting a new thermostat, ensure that the replacement is of the correct temperature rating.
Adjust the fan belt tension in accordance with the engine manufacturers instructions.
1000 hours (6months) replace the electrically conductive fan belt and check tension.

MISCELLANEOUS
CRANKCASE BREATHER FLAMETRAP
DESCRIPTION
End-of-line vent application flame arresters which comprise a housing with threaded or flanged end
connection and integral element are designed to prevent the travel of flame caused by an external
source of ignition, from entering as system and also sometimes to prevent flashback of a flame which
has been stabilized on the arrester. Made out of stainless steel weather cowl to protect against the
ingress of rain, snow and foreign bodies. Please refer to parts list for the end of line breather technical
data.
INSTALLATION
Fit engine breather pipe with small flametrap element to gear train cover. Bracket pipe to engine.
Ensure all joints are satisfactory sealed.
It is recommended that the flame arrester element is inspected at 6 monthly intervals, or if excessive
pressure drop is experienced. In the event of a flashback occurring immediate inspection should be
made. If the element is found to be damaged or distorted a new replacement unit should be fitted.
Elements are sealed into the housing and cannot be removed for cleaning. In order to clean the
element, remove the unit from the line, wash the complete flame arrester in a suitable solvent, then
blow thoroughly with compressed air.
Never attempt to clean the engine breather flametrap by inserting probes as the fine passages could
be enlarged, thereby impairing the engine breather flametrap performance.
When refitting onto the line, always use a new gasket of the correct size and of the type suitable for
that application.

How to drain the cooling system
Warnings!
Discard the used coolant in a safe place and in accordance with local regulations.
Do not drain the coolant while the engine is still hot and the system is under pressure
because dangerous hot coolant can be discharged.
top of the cooler and flush the oil cooler through the
outlet connection (B1) until clean water runs from the inlet (B2)
5. Flush the coolant system is to remain empty temporarily after it is flushed, drain the oil cooler
and fit it with 165ml (1/3 pint) of antifreeze. This will protect the oil cooler against frost if any
clean water drains down from the water jacket when the machine is moved.
6. Fit the hoses to the top of the filler cap. Close the radiator tap or connect the radiator hose.

How to check the specific gravity of coolant
Warning! Do not drain the coolant while the engine is still hot and the system is under
pressure because dangerous hot coolant can be discharged.
For mixtures which contain inhibited ethylene glycol:
1. Ensure that the machine is on level ground
2. Operate the engine until it is warm enough to open the thermostat. Continue to run the engine
until the coolant has circulated the cooling system.
3. Stop the engine.
4. Allow the engine to cool until the temperature of the coolant is below 60 ▫C
5. Remove the filler cap of the cooling system.
6. Drain some coolant from the cooling system into a suitable container.
7. Use a special coolant hydrometer that will check the temperature and the specific gravity of the
coolant follow the manufacturer‘s instructions.
Note: If a special coolant hydrometer is not available, put a hydrometer and a separate the
thermometer into the antifreeze mixture and check the readings on both instruments.
Compare the readings with the chart A.
8. Adjust the strength of the mixture as necessary.
Note: If it is necessary to fill or replenish the coolant system in service, mix the coolant to the
correct strength before it is added to the coolant system. Perkins POWERPART
antifreeze with a concentration of 50% will give protection against frost to a temperature
of –35 °C (-31 °F). It will also give protection against corrosion.
This is especially important when there are aluminium components in the coolant system.

Atomiser fault
Warning!
Cautions:
Caution: Remove and discard the seat washer (A6). If the original seat washer remains in the recess
for the atomiser, the nozzle protrusion will be incorrect when a new seat washer is added.
4. Put the new atomiser in position with its spacer, new dust seal and a new seat washer, ensure
that the fuel leak –off connection (A3) is not toward the engine. Position the clamp and engage
the atomiser is not fitted and tighten the set screws fro the clamp evenly and gradually to 12 Nm
(9 lbft) 1.2 kgf m.
Caution: Do not tighten the union nuts of the high pressure pipes more than the recommended torque
tension. If there is a leakage from the union nut, ensure that the pipe is correctly aligned with the
atomiser inlet. Don not tighten the atomiser union nut more, as this cause a restriction at the end of
the pipe. This can affect the fuel delivery
5. Fit the high-pressure fuel pipe and tighten the union nuts to 27 Nm (lb ft) 2.8 kgfm. If necessary,
fit the pipe clamps.
6. Renew the sealing washers and fit the leak-off pipe. Tighten the banjo bolt to 9.5Nm (7.0 lbf ft)
1.0 kgfm.
7. Operate the engine and check for leakage of fuel and air.
DIESEL ENGINE
Caution: Use a spanner on the flats (A1) of fuelled starting aid to prevent its movement when the
union nut (A2) is loosened and tightened.
Ensure that fuel has been added to the tank or that the
leakage has been corrected.
Note: If the cam for the fuel lift pump is at the point of
the maximum cam lift, it will not be possible to operate
the priming lever. In the situation, the crankshaft must
be rotated one turn.
Cautions;
Cautions:
The canister contains a valve and special tube
to ensure that lubricating oil does not drain from
the filter. Therefore, ensure that the correct
Perkins POWERPART canister is used.
Ensure that the application is on a level surface to
ensure an accurate reading on the dipstick.
Caution: Do not use excessive force to remove the hose (A4) from the lubricator outlet pipe.
Caution: Ensure that the lever does not damage the cover.
Warning! Do not allow compressed air to contact your skin. If compressed air enters your skin, obtain
medical help immediately.
6. Wash the body of the breather, the cover, the baffle plates (A6) and the breather pipe, every
2000 hours of operation. Use an approved kerosene cleaning fluid and dry them with
compressed air at low pressure.
7. Ensure that the holes at the bottom of the baffle plates in the breather body are not restricted.
If necessary, clean the holes.
To assemble
1. Fit the baffle plates into the grooves in the breather body.
2. Renew and fit the gauze filter into the breather body.
3. Renew and fit the new valve into breather cover. Ensure that the clips are engaged correctly.
Note: The breather valve is renewed every 4000 hours.
4. Renew the joint, which is fitted dry. Put the cover and valve assembly into position on the
breather body. Loosely fit the fasteners. Tighten the fasteners gradually and evenly to 3 Nm
(2.2lbft) 0.3 kgfm.
Caution: Do not use excessive force to fit the hose to the breather outlet pipe.
5. Check that there is no restriction in the breather hose. Fit the breather hose to the over and
tighten the clip.

Lubricating Oil Specification
If you need advise on adjustments to an engine setting to the lubricating oil change periods which
may be necessary because of the standard of available fuel, consult your nearest Perkins distributor.
Use only good quality oil to the relevant specification as shown in table below.
Caution: The type of lubricating oil to be used may be affected by the quality of the fuel which is
available. For further details see ―Fuel specification‖ and the preventive maintenance schedules.
Always ensure that the correct viscosity grade of lubricating oil is used fro the ambient temperature
range in which the engine will run as shown in the chart (A) and in the table below.
Turbocharged Engines
ACEA E 2 or E3(1)
API CE, CF4 or CG4(1)
For use in heavy duty applications with a lubricating oil change period of 250 hours.
DIESEL ENGINE
Coolant Specification
The quality of the coolant which is used can have a great effect on the efficiency and life of the
cooling system. The recommendations indicated below can help to maintain a good cooling system
and to protect it against frost and /or corrosion.
If the correct procedures are not used, Perkins cannot be held responsible for damage caused by
frost or corrosion.
Caution: An antifreeze which contains the correct inhibitor must be used at all times to prevent
damage to the engine by corrosion in the coolant circuit,
If frost protection is not necessary, it is still extremely important to use an approved antifreeze mixture
because this gives a protection against corrosion and also raises the boiling point of the coolant.
If the approved antifreeze mixture is not available, add a correct mixture of corrosion is not used, the
engine will be damaged by corrosion. If there is doubt the corrosion inhibitor to be used, it is
recommended that you consult the Perkins Service Department.
Note: If combustion gases are release into the coolant circuit, the coolant must be renewed after
repair of the fault.
The antifreeze which is recommended for this engine is the latest POWERPLANT Antifreeze. This
antifreeze contains the correct corrosion inhibitor which is especially suitable for this engine.
Caution: The antifreeze mixture must consist of equal quality of antifreeze and water. The corrosion
inhibitor in the antifreeze will be diluted if a concentration of less than 50% of antifreeze is used.
Concentrations of more than 50% of antifreeze may have an adverse effect on the performance of the
coolant.
