Coolants are employed to prevent freezing, corrosion
and rust in cooling systems. They have a variety of other useful functions, but
in general, they have a tremendous impact on the life of engines, radiators and
power trains.
Komatsu is currently promoting the global development of its Super Coolant AF-NAC
in proposing lower machine operating costs. Incorporating Komatsu’s cutting-edge
proprietary technology, the coolant offers high performance as well as longer
coolant change intervals.
The considerable technological advances in coolants in recent years have had a
major effect on the longevity of core components of construction and mining equipment.
The main features of a coolant are to prevent freezing of the cooling system during
the winter season as well as corrosion and rust. In addition, Komatsu’s
Super Coolant AF-NAC offers anti-cavitation protection demanded by heavy-duty
construction and mining equipment.
Moreover, amid greater attention given to environmental issues in recent years,
Super Coolant AF-NAC contributes to lower pollution through a dramatic reduction
in environmentally harmful additives.
Key Advantages of Super Coolant AF-NAC
| • |
 |
By adding
special polymers created through Komatsu’s proprietary technology, this
revolutionary coolant offers a level of cavitation prevention unparalleled
in previous coolants, meeting the needs of heavy-duty construction and mining
equipment.
|
| • |
|
Additives critical to
maintaining coolant performance eventually get used up. Super Coolant AF-NAC’s
highly heat-resistant, long-life additives promote powerful resistance
to corrosion and rust.
|
| • |
|
Special additives are
used to prevent generation of water-clogging scales, which causes overheating,
to suppress the overheating of key components.
|
| • |
|
Super Coolant AF-NAC
contains no amine compounds, nitrite and borate, all of which
are environmentally harmful additives. Moreover, this product represents a
significant advancement toward lower pollution through considerably reduced use
of additives that eutrophicate the properties of water.

In addition to North America, Europe, Japan and
China, Komatsu is aggressively promoting Super Coolant AF-NAC in other markets
around the world as part of Komatsu’s solution business provided to customers.
