CRT55000P MAHLE Expansion Tank, coolant

This MAHLE expansion tank, part number CRT55000P, measures 300.0 x 490.0 x 790.0 mm and originates from France. It is utilized within the engine's cooling system to expand and contract with coolant volume changes. Dimensions are provided by the supplier and may include packaging dimensions. Expansion tanks accommodate coolant volume changes due to temperature fluctuations within a vehicle’s closed cooling system. Typically constructed of polyamide or polypropylene, these pressurized reservoirs maintain system pressure and prevent air ingestion. Integral baffles within the tank de-aerate coolant, minimizing cavitation and corrosion. Level sensors or vent ports may be incorporated for monitoring or pressure regulation. Expansion tanks are commonly located in the engine compartment and are specific to vehicle make and cooling system design.
