Reading 5 min.

Total is one of the world's largest manufacturers in the field of energy and fuels and lubricants. One of the areas in which the company is engaged is auto chemical goods. It also includes coolants produced using organic, hybrid and silicate technologies.

Line of antifreezes Total Glacelf

The basis of the company's success is keeping up with the times. Modern technologies, new research, dynamic development and the highest quality materials in the production of products make Total popular all over the world.

The Total antifreeze series includes:

  • Glacelf Auto Supra;
  • Glacelf MDX;
  • Glacelf Plus;
  • Glacel Classic.

Almost all of these coolants are made using different technologies. Further on each of them in more detail.

Organic Additives Technology

Total Auto Supra 1l

This technology is organic acids. It produces carboxylate antifreezes with a long drain interval and High Quality. This technology includes one antifreeze from the series: Glacelf Auto Supra.

Description of antifreeze Total Glacelf Auto Supra

It is made from high quality monoethylene glycol with a modern package of organic additives.

Auto Supra Antifreeze is the top product of the line. High cooling, protective, anti-corrosion, anti-cavitation, anti-foam properties make it a universal product for all types of engines made of aluminum, cast iron, copper and alloys.

The color of Total Auto Supra antifreeze is red or pink / fluorescent orange. The concentrate requires dilution with distilled water - not less than 33 and not more than 70 percent of antifreeze. Replacement interval - 5 years or 250 thousand km.

This coolant in its properties belongs to the G12 or even G13 standard, surpassing the performance of standard carboxylate fluids.
Antifreeze Total Auto Supra has official approvals the following manufacturers:

  • MB Approval 325.3;
  • DEUTZ;
  • MAN 324 Type SNF;
  • FORD;
  • AUDI;
  • SEAT;
  • SKODA;
  • VW TL 774 D/F.

Hybrid Additive Technology

Total MDX 1 l

This technology allows the production of hybrid coolants. They combine organic (carbon) and silicate components. The resulting product creates protective layer on the surface of parts and at the same time sends corrosion inhibitors to where it is needed most.

Two coolants have been created using this technology: Glacelf MDX and Glacelf Plus.

Description of antifreezes Total Glacelf MDX and Glacelf Plus

The first of them is an antifreeze concentrate based on monoethylene glycol. Does not contain harmful substances. Protects against freezing depending on the degree of dilution with water.

  • DAIMLER CHRYSLER: Approval page 325.0;
  • GM-OPEL;
  • MAN 324 Type NF ;
  • MTU - MTL 5048.

The replacement interval is 2 years. The color of the liquid is green.

Total Plus 1 l

Total Glacelf Plus is another refrigerant produced using hybrid technology. Used in cars and trucks, vans, construction and agricultural vehicles. It has BMW recommendations, Porsche, Audi, Seat, Skoda, Volkswagen TL 774 C. Can also be used in Chrysler, Ford, Opel, Saab.

Total Glacelf Plus Concentrate can be mixed even with hard water without loss of quality. It has high foam resistance. Replacement is carried out after 250 thousand kilometers or after three years. Color liquid Total Plus blue-green.

Both coolants can be attributed to the G11-G12 standards, as they are created using a hybrid technology that is superior to the standard silicate one.

Mineral Additives Technology

Total Classic 1 l

Mineral technology produces one silicate antifreeze - Total Glacelf Classic.

Description of antifreeze Total Glacelf Classic.

Classic means classic in the standard sense of the word. This is the most common coolant with a replacement interval of 2 years, with high protective and lubricating properties. The liquid protects well from freezing - depending on percentage water and concentrate. Does not foam, does not boil even at high temperatures.

The color of Total Classic liquid is blue. It does not have special approvals and recommendations from car manufacturers, however, it is truly universal and meets the requirements of the main international standards for antifreeze.

Antifreeze Total Classic refers to the G11 standard used to designate silicate liquids.

Important! All of the above coolants can be mixed with quality analogues having the same base and similar additives. The color of the coolant does not play any role here. However, the problem is that additives from different manufacturers may cancel each other out, resulting in poor performance. Therefore, it is better if the same brand is used as topping up.

How to distinguish a fake


Manufacturer's information on canisters Total

Negative Feedback on that quality antifreeze are often associated with the fact that a fake has come across. This, alas, is not uncommon. Therefore, it is desirable to distinguish one from the other even before pouring into the system and even before purchasing. The following points will help to identify a fake Total:

  • the cover for Total products is only black, ribbed, fits snugly against the protective ring;
  • canister matte, white;
  • the label must indicate the composition, basic recommendations for use, article number, batch number and production date.

In general, it is necessary to pay attention to the quality of packaging. It should not have traces of opening, obvious defects, blurry inscriptions and information with errors. In addition, the information is printed in several languages ​​and includes the manufacturer's address and phone number for complaints and suggestions.

Antifreezes and coolants TOTAL

GLACELF AUTO SUPRA is an antifreeze based on monoethylene glycol and organic corrosion inhibitors with a very long service life.

When mixed with the appropriate amount of water, GLACELF AUTO SUPRA antifreeze turns into a coolant recommended for all engines. internal combustion cars and vans, trucks, construction and agricultural machinery. In accordance with French Decree no. 95-326 of March 20, 1995, regarding the distribution of products containing monoethylene glycol, GLACELF AUTO SUPPRA contains additives that give it a bitter taste to prevent accidental ingestion by children or adults.

Benefits

Excellent protection of aluminum water pumps against corrosion, erosion and cavitation.

The heat transfer performance in GLACELF AUTO SUPRA diluted antifreeze remains optimized as its all-organic additives are free of film-forming and oxidizing agents (which themselves form deposits) used in standard coolant technology and eliminate the formation of any deposits, leaving surfaces clean.

The additive package added to GLACELF AUTO SUPRA tells the coolant:

Chemical neutrality (pH 7 - 8.5),

Alkaline reserve (to neutralize acids formed from exhaust gases),
