The FWV elevated-temperature test is repeated with the same liquid but with a new Al specimen. After the second test it is not the corroded amount of the Al specimen that is measured. In this case, the residual silicate content in the liquid is of importance. It shall be > 100 ppm, 6 Notes on testing 6.4 Free water Determination acc. to Karl Fischer only for release testing 62 ‘The organic corrosion protection inhibitors (monoidicarboxylic acids) form molecular protective layers on the metal surface which are completely destroyed by chemical cleaning. Therefore, the metal surface shall be cleaned with water prior to chemical cleaning. Next, the metal is washed off with acetone and dried in a drying cabinet for 1 h at 100 °C. ‘After a period of cooling the weight is determined. ‘After the so-called water cleaning treatment the procedure is as usual (chemical cleaning and ‘weight determination). 6.3 Aluminum alloys AISi6Cu4 according to TL 023 replaces the SAE 329 Al alloy used according to ASTM D 1384. ‘The ASTM chain is expanded on the steel-aluminum side to include the following alurrinum alloys: AISi12; AIM. For the use in the VB engine the Al alloy according to TL 023 is replaced by AISi10Mg (Cu). Discoloration is permissible, provided it does not represent corrosion products, Piting is not permissible 64 Foaming ‘50 mi of a 33 volume percent coolant additive in distilled water are shaken for 1 minute in a 100 mi shaking flask. Using the same solution, this test is subsequently repeated at 20 °C, 80 °C and again at 20 °C. ‘The amount of foam is determined immediately after testing and after 1 minute, 65 Stability Deviating from ASTM D 4340, water ace. to the test specification of the FV, Vol. R 443, Appendix 1, Section 2 (1986 issue) shall be used. ‘The concentration is 40 volume percent.Page7 TL 774: 2005-10 6.6 Course of temperature over 30 h Temperature increase should not exceed 6 °C over a testing period of 30 h, starting the ‘measurement 30 min after the testing start.
