Im not familiar with a closed crankcase ventilation system (CCVS). What work is required to install one?
The CCVS is designed to capture and filter diesel engine crankcase emissions and redirect those emissions into the combustion process. Most CCVS devices have a filter located between the crankcase vent and the engine air intake system to allow for the removal of impurities and any engine oil that may be in the crankcase fumes. The residual liquids are typically returned to the oil pan or a collection device. Some regular maintenance of the system is required to ensure optimal operation of the device. An example of maintenance includes routine replacement of the filter or disposal of the collected engine oil. We suggest you go to the websites (listed on page 2 of the grant application booklet) for the CCVS products verified by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency or the California Air Resources Board for more information. Manufacturers typically have sales literature on their web sites that illustrates typical installation procedures. Consider contacting an authorized installer dire
