Valeo Coolant Properties

VALEO RESERVED November 2020 | 6


Coolant Requirement

A COOLANT must :
1 Not boil under operating
conditions

2 Ensure an optimal heat transfer

Protect coolant system


3 components against corrosion
and have a long operating life

Coolant Composition

Water cannot be used alone in cooling systems; nevertheless it can be the base of a mix
that can comply with systems requirements.
The base of all automotive coolant liquids is a mix of water, ethylene glycol and inhibitor
package.

Mono Ethylene Glycol (MEG)

The quality characteristics of MEG are defined by international standards

● The Ethylene glycol, also called monoethylene glycol (MEG)


part of them are heat transfers applications where antifreeze
features are mandatory.

● Ethylene glycol is completely miscible in water, in its pure form


it is odorless; it is colorless, syrupy with a sweet taste.

● Most automobile manufacturers recommend a glycol


concentration between 40% and 50%.

● These concentrations provide optimum thermal conductivity,


boiling, freezing and corrosion protection.

● Secure from freezing.

Additives or Inhibitors
1. INORGANIC STD technology Contains inhibitor package free of nitrites, amines and phosphates.
=> Mostly recommended for older engines and technologies.

2. HYBRID (G11) technology Contains hybrid inhibitor package formulated with inorganic, organic
salts and silicates. Free of nitrites, amines and phosphates.
The hybrid inhibitor package ensures high corrosion protection of
cylinders, heads, radiators and pumps.
=> Especially suited for quite old motor cars models.
Fully compatible with other similarly formulated engine coolants.

3. ORGANIC (G12) technology With biodegradable, organic inhibitor package technology (OAT).
Free of nitrites, amines, phosphates, silicates and borates.
The organic inhibitor package ensures high corrosion protection of
engine components, cylinders, heads, and pumps.
=> Suitable for all modern engines, especially those made of
aluminium. Fully compatible with other similarly formulated engine
coolants (OAT).

4. HYBRID HD technology Contains hybrid inhibitor package formulated with nitrites, organic
salts and silicates. Free of amine and phosphates.
Preserves for long time all the engine components protecting all
metals, including aluminium, from corrosion. Do not mix with OAT
coolants or without silicate ones.
=> Suitable for commercial vehicles, trucks and buses, especially
intended for Heavy Duty applications

Additives or Inhibitors
5. SI-OAT (G12 ++) technology High performance coolant formulated with a new generation
inhibitor package that combines the benefits offered by organic
inhibitors with the benefits of silicates (Si-OAT technology) to provide
high performance and long-life applications. It does not contain
nitrites, amines and phosphates. Its specific formulation provides
long time corrosion protection to all engine system metals, especially
aluminium alloys and light metals.
=> Suitable for all modern engines, especially those made of
aluminium.

6. SI-OAT + GLYCEROL (G13) technology Same properties as G12++ (organic + silicates) but with glycerine on
top (20% max).
=> Suitable for all modern engines high speed, especially those made
of aluminium.

7. Additives Bittering agents


Antifoaming agents
Sequestering agents

Summarize and Q&A

VALEO RESERVED November 2020 | 18


Does color mean performance or identify technology ?

Absolutely NO , the colour is just a dye

VALEO RESERVED November 2020 | 19


Why different products/technologies should not be mixed ?

1 Product performances can be


compromised

There might be unwanted


2 reactions between the different
inhibitors

The resulting mixed product may


3 not be compatible with the engine
materials

Always follow the manufacturers recommendations for the


correct type of coolant to use!
VALEO RESERVED November 2020 | 20
Why correct specification is mandatory ?

In a warm climate, where freezing is not an issue and where cooling


the engine in key, it is possible to drop the coolant concentration
down to 25 % to gain in cooling capacity, nevertheless it may affect
the corrosion level in the system.

Decreasing the glycol concentration would degrade the inhibitors


protection level and lower the boiling point.
