Scope: With constant ambient temperatures above freezing point.
1.1.3 Commercial vehicle engines (exception, not for engines OM 500, OM 900, OM 457 and OM
460)
99 vol % Water
1 vol % Refining agent (see Sheet 311.0)
Scope: For constant ambient temperatures above freezing point, e.g. in tropical regions, in which it can be
proven that no approved anticorrosion/antifreeze agents and coolant additives according to Sheet 312.0
are available.
Passenger-car engines, which are installed in a commercial vehicle, must always be filled up as for a
passenger-car engine, refer to points 2.1/2.2.
A quick-glance overview of the fields of application for the approved coolant additives and the
prescribed change intervals are available in Section 5. Please note the mixing prohibition for Sheets 325.3
and 326.3!
1.2 Water
1.2.1 Fresh-water regulations/water treatment
Clean, and where possible, not too hard water should be used for processing the coolant. Drinking water
frequently, although not always, complies with the given specifications.
Sea water, brackish water, brine and industrial waters are not suitable. The level of water containing
dissolved substances can vary greatly depending upon its origin (ground, spring, surface water) and it is
of major significance regarding the presence of corrosion.
Water that is too hard is disadvantageous because of the possibility of scaling or sludging occurring. Salt
content, predominantly chloride, greatly promotes corrosion. If in doubt, analyze the water.
Information concerning the water quality of drinking water is available from the local water-plant
authorities or the official water utilities on request.
If there is no available information regarding the quality of the drinking water then distilled or deionized
water should be used.
If the water fails to comply with the approved analysis values, then it is be processed in a suitable
manner, because even excellent anticorrosion/antifreeze agents are greatly impaired in their ability to
protect against corrosion if water quality is poor.
Should it not be possible to soften the water then the water should be brought up to an approved hardness
by an admixture of soft or distilled (deionized) water.

If the chloride or total ionic content of the water is too high, then the level can be reduced through the
admixture of demineralized, in other words, ion-exchanged or distilled water.
Particular treatment processes will need to be used (desalination and demineralization or subprocesses)
depending upon the contaminants present in the water. Information on how to conduct water treatment is
available from water plants or water utilities as well as several companies and engineering consultants
who are experienced in this area.
Depending upon the coolant composition, the analysis values for the water should lie within the following
limits:
1.2.2 Fresh-water quality for coolant composition as under item 1.1.1 (passenger-cars and
commercial-vehicle engines)
Sum total of alkalis (water hardness): 0 to 3.6 mmol/l (0 up to 20° d)*
pH value at 20°C: 6.5 up 8.5
Chlorine ion content: max. 100 mg/l
Total chlorides and sulfates: max. 200 mg/l
1.2.3 Fresh-water quality for coolant composition as under item 1.1.2/1.1.3 (commercial-vehicle
engines)
Sum total of alkalis (water hardness): 0 to 2.7 mmol/l (0 up to 15° d)*
pH value at 20°C: 6.5 to 8.0
Chlorine ion content: max. 80 mg/l
Total chlorides and sulfates: max. 160 mg/l
If in doubt, contact DaimlerChrysler AG, department EP/MOR (operating fluids), C 405, D-70546
Stuttgart, Germany.

etc. of these coolant specifications also apply. It is imperative that the correct concentration (50/50) is
used in their application and, of course, further dilution is not permitted!
Approval status:
Coolants for all vehicle and engines (Basis 325.0) Sheet 326.0
Coolants for commercial vehicle and industrial engines (Basis 325.2) Sheet 326.2
Coolants for commercial vehicle and industrial engines (Basis 325.3) Sheet 326.3
The regulations for each respective Sheet 325.x are to be transferred correspondingly to Sheet
326.x.
At the time of compiling these regulations it is possible that not all the Sheets 326.x are represented with
approved products.
2.Coolant additives (General information)
Normally, coolant consists of water and anticorrosion/antifreeze agents. The anticorrosion/antifreeze
agents (ethylene glycol with corrosions inhibitors) in the cooling system have to fulfill, among other
things, the following functions:
to provide sufficient corrosion and cavitation protection for all cooling system components
freezing point depression (antifreeze)
increasing boiling point
For corrosion protection purposes the coolant
approx. 50 vol.-% Anticorrosion/antifreeze agents are added if the expected ambient temperatures do not
require an even higher concentration. This concentration (50 vol %) offers frost protection up to approx. -
37°C. A higher concentration is only necessary if the ambient temperatures are even lower.
Even with extremely low ambient temperatures, not more than 55 vol.-% anticorrosion/antifreeze agent
should be used, because at this level the maximum antifreeze protection is reached and a greater
concentration reduces the antifreeze protection again and decreases the heat dissipation (55 vol.-%
corresponds to antifreeze protection down to approx. -45°C).
Should these coolant regulations fail to be observed then corrosion and damage to the cooling
system are inevitable.
The admixture of anticorrosion/antifreeze agent serves to increase the boiling point. By raising the
pressure the boiling temperature can be increased yet further. Both physical relationships are put to use in
modern cooling systems - the maximum coolant temperature is raised, without increasing the danger of
boiling. In keeping with the higher temperature level the cooling performance is also greater. Only
