The ELC anti-corrosion package is totally different from conventional coolants. ELC has been formulated with the correct amounts of additives in order to provide superior corrosion protection for all metals in engine cooling systems.

ELC extends the service life of the coolant to 967 000 km (600,000 miles) or six years. ELC does not require a frequent addition of a Supplemental Coolant Additive (SCA). An Extender is the only additional maintenance that is needed at 483 000 km (300,000 miles) or one half of the ELC service life.

ELC is available in a 1:1 premixed cooling solution with distilled water. The Premixed ELC provides freeze protection to −36 °C (−33 °F). The Premixed ELC is recommended for the initial fill of the cooling system. The Premixed ELC is also recommended for topping off the cooling system.

ELC Concentrate is also available. ELC Concentrate can be used to lower the freezing point to −51 °C (−60 °F) for arctic conditions.

Containers of several sizes are available. Consult your Caterpillar dealer for the part numbers.

Note: Caterpillar developed the EC-1 specification. The EC-1 specification is an industry standard. The EC-1 specification defines all of the performance requirements that are needed for an engine coolant to be sold as an extended life coolant for Caterpillar engines. ELC can be used in most OEM engines of the following types: diesel, gasoline and natural gas. ELC meets the performance requirements of "ASTM D4985" and "ASTM D5345" for heavy-duty low silicate antifreeze/coolants. ELC also meets the performance requirements of "ASTM D3306" and "ASTM D4656" for automotive applications.
