One of these requirements is extensive field testing, and Cat ELC has successfully completed over 50 million miles of testing in Cat engines. EC-1 defines the performance requirements an engine coolant must meet to be sold as an extended life coolant for Cat engines. Better protection for longer life New standards for performance Cat ELC exceeds the new EC-1 industry standard developed by Caterpillar for cooling the engine and protecting the cooling system.
KLLM’s results demonstrate the longer lifeĪnd better protection available with Cat ELC.

The system should be drained and flushed with clean water at 600,000 miles for truck engines and 6,000 hours for machines and commercial engines (no cleaning agents are required if you are already using ELC). Cat Extender should be added at 300,000 miles for truck engines and 3,000 hours for machines and commercial engines. Cat ELC Concentrate can be used to lower the coolant’s freezing point temperature below that of Premixed, which is -34☏ (-37☌). This formula ensures that water quality does not compromise engine coolant life and performance-so there’s no guessing about correct antifreeze-to-water mix or worrying about hard water scale. Cat ELC Premixed contains 50% ELC and 50% deionized water and is intended for initial fill and top-off. It meets ASTM D4985 and ASTM D5345 standards for heavy-duty, low- silicate antifreeze/coolants and ASTM D and ASTM D4656 for automotive applications. Recommended use Cat ELC can be used in all Cat diesel engines and most OEM diesel, gasoline, and natural gas engines, allowing you to inventory one coolant for your entire mixed fleet. It requires no supplemental coolant additives (SCAs) instead, Cat Extender is added once, at half the life of the coolant.
