Coolant Analysis

Coolant Analysis

Coolant is what keeps your standby generator at operating temperature, even after hours of use. If it leaks or evaporates out of your system, your engine could overheat, degrading its lubricant and fuel.

We inspect your coolant for the following issues. 

ICP Spectroscopy

This test reveals if harmful elements are in your coolant. These elements could prevent it from keeping your engine cool during extended use, such as long outages.

Karl Fischer Water

This is a specific type of test that tells us if there is water in your coolant. Unlike your coolant, water freezes at normal winter temperatures, risking that your system will not work in a snowstorm.

PH (acidity)

If your coolant becomes acidic, it can corrode your generator’s engine. We test it to make sure it is slightly basic like it should be.

Freeze Point

Not all coolants are equal. We make sure your coolant won’t freeze in the coldest climates possible in Central Jersey.
