Problems of Engine Cooling System

• Over 40 of all engine problems have their origin
  in the performance of the cooling system.
• The common problems with cooling systems are -
• OVERHEATING
• FOAMING
• CORROSION OR RUST
• LINER PITTING
• SILICATE GELATION
• WATER

OVERHEATING

• Effects of Overheating
• Hard scale deposits on hot surfaces, excessive
  foaming, blockage of passages, thermostat
  malfunction
• Overheating can lead to boiling over of coolant
• Can lead to pre-ignition
• Heat makes aluminum swell 3 times faster than
  cast iron

FOAMING

• Effects of Foaming
• Foam can cause entrainment of air and decrease
  heat transfer ability
• Accelerates oxidation of metal components or the
  coolant itself

Proprietary Information
6
Liner Pitting

• Effects of Liner Pitting
• cavitation corrosion caused by imploding vapour
  bubbles will eat clean through the liner wall.
• Additives form a hard surface with the metal

Silicate Gelation
Effects of silicate gelation Common with
overdosing using automotive antifreeze and high
silicate additives (SCAs)

WATER

• Effects of Water
• Plug passageways restrict smooth coolant flow
• Damage to other internal parts.

Radiwash - Benefits

• Radiwash removes contamination Without harming
  the metal surfaces, gaskets, hoses and plastic
  parts.
• Radiwash works quickly and effectively to solve
  cooling system problems, saving cost
• intensive downtime.
• As a preventive maintenance tool, use Radiwash
  whenever cooling systems are drained prior to
  replacing coolant.
• Radiwash can be used for all type of radiators.
• Radiwash cleans all engine cooling system
  components like
• Radiator, Engine block, Engine head, After
  cooler, Oil cooler, Cylinder liner, Water pump,
  Thermostat, Rubber hoses, Connecting pipelines,
  etc.
