What is SCA antifreeze?
FLEET CHARGE® SCA PRECHARGED Coolant / Antifreeze is the original fully formulated Supplemental Coolant Additive (SCA) pre-charged antifreeze. The patented inhibitor package provides superior protection against cavitation erosion, corrosion, and scale for all heavy duty cooling system applications.
What is SCA protection?
SCA, a term coined by market analysts, describes an automated process to identify open source components in a codebase. Once a component is identified, it becomes possible to map that component to known security disclosures and determine whether multiple versions are present within an application.
What is DCA coolant additive?
Type. DCA4 Supplemental Coolant Additive (SCA) provides superior engine protection in heavy duty diesel applications where glycol based coolants are used, as well as marine and railroad diesel applications where water is used as the coolant.
Do coolant additives really work?
But over the years we’ve become accustomed to using cooling system wetting agents, as they’ve been proven to work almost every time. Unlike ring sealers in a can and other mysterious leak sealing products that never seem to work, cooling system additives generally do work.
What is SCA level?
The recommended level of SCA is 1.5 to 3.0 units per gallon. If you do not check the level frequently you should aim for a higher level such as 2.5 in order to assure that you will not fall below 1.5 over time. Concentrations above 3.0 can result in the buildup of particles that SCAs often cause.
What is SCA tool?
Software composition analysis (SCA) is an automated process that identifies the open source software in a codebase. This analysis is performed to evaluate security, license compliance, and code quality.
Why do we need SCA?
SCA identifies all the open source in a codebase and maps that inventory to a list of current known vulnerabilities. More advanced solutions use sophisticated source and binary file scanning to ensure that they identify all open source, including code snippets copied from known sources.
Do coolant test strips work?
Although strips test the freeze point of antifreeze, it can also determine if the antifreeze coolant has become corrosive or if it has anti-corrosive life left to protect the engine. Antifreeze test strips are a fast and accurate method of checking your antifreeze.
Do coolant additives work?
Unlike ring sealers in a can and other mysterious leak sealing products that never seem to work, cooling system additives generally do work.
What is the difference between diesel antifreeze and gas antifreeze?
The difference between the antifreeze used in a diesel engine and that used in a conventional gas engine is that diesel antifreeze contains a special additive that protects against erosion on cylinder walls.

What type of antifreeze should I use?
A 50/50 mix antifreeze, green coolant, would be your best bet. Anything that says “safe for older automobiles” would also work. Be careful of “Extended-Life” additives, as these will eat away at older aluminum, and could cause more harm than good.
What is fleet charge antifreeze?
Fleet Charge is a low silicate, low total dissolved solids antifreeze that meets or exceeds all Heavy Duty and Automobile specifications. Fleet Charge requires no SCAs at initial fill, and ensures proper chemistry at every top-off.
What are the types of antifreeze?
There are 3 basic types of antifreeze used today, ethylene glycol based, propylene Glycol based and the newer Organic Acid Technology. The biggest thing to look out for is using the organic acid technology (OAT) in older vehicles with brass or copper radiators.
