Modern systems with higher power densities require increasingly specific coolants, which are often tailored to the individual application. In practice, this often leads to uncertainty: what are the consequences of incorrect additive use? How does water quality affect the coolant? What happens when different coolants are mixed?

In this one-day seminar, you will find answers to these questions and learn more about coolants as an important operating material. Your speaker will demonstrate how coolant analyses contribute to quality assurance and condition monitoring, thereby increasing plant reliability.

The seminar is aimed at equipment manufacturers and users and offers a concise overview of the function, development, challenges and solutions involved in the formulation and application of modern coolants.

  • You know the typical properties of coolants.
  • You understand the difference between IAT, OAT and hybrid coolants.
  • You are able to select the right coolant for your system.
  • You monitor the use of coolants effectively.
  • You determine sensible coolant change intervals.
  • You avoid damage to equipment and reduce operating costs.

  • Design engineers, operators, maintenance technicians and repair technicians from the following areas:
    • Automotive (passenger cars/commercial vehicles, agriculture and forestry, construction machinery)
    • Railway
    • Ship
    • Stationary motors
    • Wind turbines
1-day seminar
