TM 55-1905-223-24-5
f.
Remove "Out of Service-Do Not Operate" tag.
NOTE
If coolant is added between drain intervals, additional coolant additive (DCA or equivalent)
could be required.
g.
Before adding coolant the coolant additive concentration must be checked using the DCA
test kit and TB 55-1900-207-24.
h.
Add coolant as required using a minimum concentration of one DCA unit for each U.S. gallon
(3.8 litre) of cooling system capacity.
NOTE
One DCA unit equals 1.5 dry ounces (42 grams) or 4.0 fluid ounces (118 millilitres).
CAUTION
Do not use more than two DCA units per U.S. gallon (3.8 litre) as overconcentration will
cause sludge in cooling system.
i.
Ensure the proper coolant filter is installed to maintain the correct DCA concentration in the
system.
NOTE
Service filters are satisfactory for use with maintenance intervals from 250 to 600 hours.
DCA is compatible with all permanent type antifreeze except Methoxy Propanol. If using
Methoxy Propanol antifreeze reduce the amount of DCA by 1/3 to prevent inhibitor loss.
