ELC Heavy Duty Coolant

Shell Rotella^® ELC HD Extended Life is high-performance coolant designed for Heavy Duty Diesel, Gasoline, Natural Gas and LNG engines. Designed to meet the challenges:

• Meets both CAT EC-1 and Cummins full approvals (CES14603 & CES14439).
• Superior elastomer protection (2-EHA free 
• Long coolant life for extended drain interval 
• Protection of metal parts, water pump and elastomers 
• Compatible with similarly formulated coolants on the market

Optimize Heat Transfer

Benefits: Extended coolant life for long drain intervals - Formulated with organic additive technology (OAT) for long drain interval, which helps increase productivity, reduce downtime, and lower maintenance costs. Superior metal protection - Outstanding corrosion protection of aluminum, iron, and copper in ASTM testing. Prevention of scale and silicate gel formation - Silicate and phosphate free formulation to reduce the likelihood of silicate gel and scale formation, which also helps reduce water pump failures and optimize heat transfer. Superior elastomer protection (2-EHA free) - Preserves hoses, seals, and gaskets to prevent coolant leakage.

OEM Specifications and Approvals for Shell Rotella® ELC Heavy Duty Coolant

Shell Rotella^® ELC HD Meets all the requirements of ASTM D3306 (LD), D4985 and D6210 (HD). Fully meets CAT EC-1 requirements and has Cummins OEM approvals (CES14603 & CES14439). CES14603 is the coolant specification that covers majority of the engines produced by Cummins, including off-road and on-road applications.  Silicate, Borate & Phosphate-free

Formulated with modern organic additive technology (OAT) and molybdate, which provides superior corrosion protection compared to conventional fully formulated coolants.

Contains no 2-EHA chemical which is required by some European OEMs.

Applications and Compatibility

Ready to use and designed for HD Diesel, Gasoline, and Natural Gas engines. Compatible with other coolants - Proven compatibility with similarly formulated (OAT) coolants for easier top-up and maintenance. Help reduce downtime and enable higher equipment utilization with operational endurance. 

Different engines and materials require specific types of coolant. Using the wrong type can lead to chemical reactions that damage engine parts like seals and gaskets.
