Claas Celtis

Coolant capacity & service interval

Claas Celtis coolant capacity ranges from 15 to 18,5 liters. Service intervals include checking every 10 hours and changing every 2000 hours. The data covers 4 configurations.

The configuration chart below lists fill volumes and service intervals for each engine and trim variant.

Additional Notes

  • The Claas Celtis 426, 436, and 446 variants share an identical cooling system capacity of 15 liters, indicating a common engine cooling architecture across those three configurations for the 2003-2008 production period.
  • The Celtis 456 carries a notably larger cooling system capacity of 18.5 liters, which reflects a greater engine displacement or thermal load requirement compared to the lower-numbered variants in the same range.
  • A coolant level check interval of 10 hours applies across all four Celtis variants under normal use conditions, placing coolant monitoring among the most frequent routine service tasks on the machine.
  • The coolant change interval is set at 2000 hours for all four variants under normal use conditions, a figure that represents a substantial operational period and is typical of extended-life coolant formulations used in agricultural machinery.
  • The 3.5-liter difference in cooling system capacity between the 456 and the 426/436/446 group is relevant when calculating the volume of coolant concentrate and water needed to achieve the correct antifreeze mixture ratio during a full system drain and refill.
  • All four Celtis variants share the same 2000-hour change interval despite the capacity difference between the 456 and the rest of the group, meaning the larger-capacity system requires a proportionally greater volume of coolant at each scheduled change.
