As for a diesel generator set, antifreeze is a coolant that is used to regulate the temperature of the engine. It is typically a mixture of water and ethylene or propylene glycol, along with additives to protect against corrosion and reduce foaming.
Here are a few things to keep in mind when using antifreeze in the generator sets.
1. Read and follow the instructions: Before using any antifreeze product, carefully read and follow the manufacturer's instructions for proper use and to avoid incorrect operation.
2. Use the correct type of antifreeze: Use the proper type of antifreeze recommended by the generator set manufacturer. Different types of generators may require different formulas or specifications, and incorrect use may result in unnecessary damage.
3. Dilute properly: Mix antifreeze with water before use. Always follow the recommended dilution ratio specified by the antifreeze manufacturer. Using too much or too little antifreeze can result in inefficient cooling or potential engine damage.
4. Use clean and uncontaminated water: When diluting antifreeze, use clean, filtered water to prevent the introduction of any contaminants into the cooling system that could affect the efficiency and performance of the antifreeze.
5. Keep the cooling system clean: Inspect and clean the cooling system regularly to prevent the buildup of debris, rust, or scale that could affect the effectiveness of the antifreeze.
6. Check for leaks: Regularly check the cooling system for any signs of leaks, such as coolant puddles or stains. Leaks can cause loss of antifreeze, which can lead to overheating and damage to the generator set.
7. Use proper PPE: Use proper PPE such as gloves and goggles when handling antifreeze.
8. Store antifreeze properly: Store antifreeze according to the manufacturer's instructions in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place out of direct sunlight to ensure product effectiveness.
9. Dispose of antifreeze responsibly: Never pour used antifreeze directly down the drain or onto the ground. Antifreeze is harmful to the environment and should be disposed of scientifically according to local regulations.
Remember, if you have any questions about the use of generator set antifreeze, AGG always recommends consulting the generator set manufacturer or a qualified professional for guidance.
