Monitoring the coolant's additive health is very important.
Additives help improve the characteristics of the coolant by
reducing the corrosive nature of the fluid. Most of these addi-
tives anchor themselves to the metals in the cooling system and
build up a film to help reduce any corrosion due to water or
acids in the coolant. As with any fluid containing additives, the
health of these molecules becomes essential to ensure that the
system operates as efficiently and as effectively as possible.
As you can see, there are many variables to consider when
performing coolant analysis. A number of laboratories offer
this type of analysis as part of their standard package, but
trending the data is an absolute must. Samples should be taken
routinely and in a consistent manner so the data coming from
the lab is trendable and so the reports can be used to create a
plan of action.
