CRANKCASE VENTILATION FILTERS

To protect your equipment and keep it at peak performance, you need to take care of your filters. But not all filters come to mind as easily as others. There are obvious ones, like oil and air filters. And then there are those further down the list, the ones you don’t always think about. Your crankcase ventilation filter might be one of them — but it’s still important. Now is a good time to shop for genuine CNH Industrial crankcase ventilation filters.

What It Does, Why It Matters

During normal operations, high pressure “blowby” gas from your engine’s combustion chamber enters the crankcase. Your crankcase ventilation system vents it into the air intake system, where it returns to the combustion chamber.

Here’s the problem: As air leaves the crankcase, it contains oil, unburnt fuel and other contaminants that could end up in your engine’s air filters. On older systems, where air flows in both directions, the inflowing air contains dust and other particles that could contaminate your engine oil. Guarding the way is your crankcase ventilation filter (often called a breather filter).

Restricted airflow through an old, clogged filter can cause higher than normal pressure in the crankcase, which can cause oil leaks. Bad filters can also impair engine performance, resulting in loss of power or high idling speeds.

Check your vehicle’s manual to see how frequently you need to change your filter. If it’s time, you know where to go. Get your new crankcase ventilation filter from CNH Industrial.
