Hürlimann H-6000

Coolant capacity & service interval

Hürlimann H-6000 coolant capacity ranges from 18 to 27 liters. Service intervals include checks at 10 hours and changes at 2400 hours or 24 months. The data covers 6 configurations.

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

Additional Notes

  • The Hürlimann H-6000 series spans two distinct cooling system capacity groups. The H-6115 Elite and H-6135 Elite hold 18 liters, while the H-6130, H-6136, H-6160, and H-6170 all hold 27 liters. The 9-liter difference reflects the larger engine displacement in the non-Elite configurations.
  • A 10-hour check interval appears across all six variants. In agricultural equipment, such a short inspection cycle is standard practice during early service hours and for systems where coolant level loss can indicate a developing leak or head gasket issue before serious engine damage occurs.
  • The H-6130 (1982-1985) and H-6160 (1982-1985) share the 27-liter capacity but carry no coolant change interval in the specifications. The other 27-liter variants — the H-6136 and H-6170 — do carry a defined change interval of 2400 hours or 24 months.
  • A dual-condition change interval of 2400 hours or 24 months, as seen on the H-6136, H-6170, H-6115 Elite, and H-6135 Elite, means whichever threshold is reached first triggers the service. Calendar time becomes the limiting factor for equipment that accumulates low annual hours.
  • The 2400-hour threshold is a relatively extended drain interval by agricultural tractor standards, consistent with heavy-duty coolant formulations that maintain corrosion inhibitor effectiveness over long service periods in liquid-cooled diesel engines.
  • The Elite variants (H-6115 Elite and H-6135 Elite, both 1989-1996) share identical cooling system specifications — 18-liter capacity, 10-hour check, and 2400-hour/24-month change interval — despite carrying different model designations, suggesting a common engine cooling architecture between the two.
