Advantages of ELC
Cat ELC is developed, tested and approved by Caterpillar to meet the same high standards as all genuine Cat parts.
- Factory-Fill: ELC is used as standard factory-fill for all Cat machine cooling systems.
- Lower Maintenance Costs: ELC reduces engine coolant and additive costs by as much as 500% compared to conventional coolants. It eliminates the need for supplemental coolant additives, extends coolant change-out intervals and reduces disposal requirements
- Advanced Metal Protection: ELC incorporates an advanced formula technology with organic acid additive corrosion inhibitors, such as a combination of mono- and dicarboxylates for maximum protection of copper, solder, brass, steel, cast iron and aluminum.
S•O•SSM Services for Early Problem Detection
