Protects down to -25°C. Orange and Green coolants may not be mixed

Volvo Penta coolant gives vastly superior corrosion protection in comparison with non-branded products. It also has good anti-freeze properties. The coolant is specially tested in Volvo engines and is recommended for fresh water cooled engines. Ideal for modern engines (diesel and petrol) since the coolant contains additives that protect aluminium and aluminium alloys. Its characteristics also make it suitable for winter engine protection. When mixing the coolant with water, only use clean, high quality water.

Volvo Penta Coolant VCS (Orange -which replaces the Yellow coolant) contains new inhibitors that are adapted to the materials used in modern engines. VCS 2 Orange offers better protection against corrosion and the build-up of deposits; it counteracts cavitations and galvanic corrosion. 

Background 
The continued improvement of our engines with higher performance, more compact sizes and lighter materials raises the requirements for cooling, corrosion protection and therefore also the coolant. Volvo Penta Coolant VCS is Orange (was yellow) and may not be mixed with Green coolant. 

In cases where a change must be made from Volvo Penta Coolant (Green) or equivalent to VCS-2 (Orange), 
the cooling system must be cleaned using oxalic acid; refer to Service bulletin 26-0-29 for instructions. 

Water quality
Only mix Volvo Penta coolant with tap water that fulfils Volvo quality standard VOLVO STD:1285,1. 
In the event of doubt regarding water quality, use Volvo Penta ready mixed coolant.

Freezing point 
Freezing points (ASTM D1177) and pour points (ASTM D97) for VOLVO PENTA coolant and VOLVO PENTA VCS coolant.

Mixture proportions (freezing point) at: 
40% coolant and 60% water gives -24 °C (-11 °F) 
50% coolant and 50% water gives -37 °C (-34 °F)

IMPORTANT! 
Industrial engines may not use coolant filters in combination with VCS (yellow); coolant filters will be 
omitted on new industrial engines filled with VCS (yellow). 
Old model engines must continue to use Volvo Penta Coolant (green).

NOTE! Volvo Penta Coolant VCS-2 Orange (was yellow) should not be used on Volvo Penta engines that have hitherto used Volvo Penta Coolant (green) or other type of coolant(2). Volvo Penta Coolant (green) is 
manufactured using different technology and has inhibitors that may not be mixed chemically with VCS 
(yellow). Engines that have been in operation for a long while are difficult to rid completely of green 
coolant residues.
