Often, when purchasing fluid for engine cooling systems, you can see not a ready-made antifreeze that can be immediately poured into a car, but its concentrate, which requires preliminary dilution.
It is necessary
a bottle of distilled water
Instructions
Step 1
Remember: it is concentrated antifreeze that is sold on the market, since this is fully justified from an economic point of view. Due to the fact that antifreeze is diluted only with distilled water, which can be purchased in your favorite city, in our markets there is a large amount of concentrated water, which in no case should be immediately poured into the car.
Step 2
Please note that antifreeze with a crystallization temperature of 65 degrees Celsius and below is sold in the trade network. Accordingly, such frosts can be found only in the Arctic latitudes, but even then not everywhere. And in temperate geographic latitudes, the temperature in winter very rarely drops below -30 degrees.
Step 3
Therefore, after you purchase a coolant concentrate, it must be diluted with distilled water, while be sure to keep in mind that adding 1/3 of the amount of water to the existing volume of antifreeze will lead to an increase in the crystallization temperature to -30 degrees. But if you dilute the specified antifreeze with distilled liquid in equal proportions, then it will not freeze at temperatures below -20 degrees - this is especially true for the southern regions of Russia.
Step 4
Remember: to dilute antifreeze, you do not need to look for such pure water as pharmacy distilled water for injection. But, nevertheless, approach the choice of such water very critically, as it must have sufficient deionization in order to prevent internal corrosion of the metal.
Step 5
Therefore, use purified water to dilute antifreeze using a special reverse osmosis technology, which subsequently undergoes deionization. Add this inlet to the antifreeze container in the required proportions, only then it can be poured into the machine. Also, some manufacturers of this product immediately indicate the required amount of liquid, which will need to be diluted.
