Table 1.C Coolant Requirements for LPM20 Drives
Corrosion Inhibitor
A corrosion inhibitor is required. The following two options are approved
sources:
1. Chemtool, Inc. (www.chemtool.com) part number Watertool 4435-C.
The recommended concentration of the inhibitor is 8 to 10% by volume.
2. Dow Chemical (www.dow.com) Dowtherm
®
SR-1 inhibited ethylene
glycol. The recommended concentration of the inhibitor is 25% by
volume.
Dowtherm is a registered trademark of the Dow Chemical Company.
Biocide
A biocide may be needed to control biological growth. Use of a biocide is
permitted. For specific recommendations, consult a reputable water
treatment company.

ATTENTION: Ethylene glycol must be inhibited and silicate
free. Use of common silicate-containing, automotive-type
ethylene glycol solutions is prohibited as they may damage the
drive and cooling module equipment.
