Title
Standard Specification for Supplemental Coolant Additives (SCAs) for Use in Precharging Coolants for Heavy-Duty Engines
ASTM International
Publication Date:
Oct 1, 2005
Scope:
This specification covers the general, physical, chemical, and performance requirements for
Supplemental Coolant Additives (SCAs) at a precharged level in the cooling systems of heavy-duty
engines.
NOTE 1 - After precharging, SCAs are customarily used periodically to service cooling systems at
¼ to ⅓ the precharged dosage to compensate for additives lost through dilution and
depletion.
The SCA products meeting this specification are intended for use with water, with recommended
dilutions of coolant concentrates, with prediluted engine coolants, or to upgrade the performance
of light-duty engine coolants to meet the heav-duty requirements of Specification D 6210. Engine
coolant products shall be of the low-silicate type and, if ethylene glycol based, shall meet
Specification D 4985. Propylene glycol base low-silicate type coolant products may also be used, if
these materials meet the chemical and performance requirements of Specification D 4985.
The SCA concentrate, before dissolution, may be in either liquid, solid, or slurry form. The form
is as agreed upon between the manufacturer and the user.
The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. The inch-pound units in parentheses
are approximate equivalents provided for information only.
This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its
use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and
health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
