1. Preface
These operating instructions should make
it easier for personnel to familiarize them-
selves with the ProVent®and to use it in the
various application areas for which it was
designed.
The operating instructions contain important
information on operating the components
safely, correctly and economically. These
instructions must be followed in order to avoid
danger, reduce repair costs and down times
and increase the reliability and working life of
your machine.
The instructions must be made accessible to
every person working with the lter.
Furthermore, these instructions must be
supplemented as necessary with the appli-
cable national regulations regarding accident
prevention and environmental protection (in
particular the disposal of removed parts).
We reserve the right to make technical modi-
cations to the lter and/or modify the content
of these operating instructions.

2. Safety
2.1 Warning instructions and symbols
All instructions in the operating man-
ual that affect safety are marked with
this symbol. Ignoring the symbol may
endanger personnel.
All instructions marked with this sym-
bol must be observed closely in order
to avoid damage to or the destruction
of unit components.
This symbol indicates that special
attention must be paid to these instruc-
tions in order to ensure trouble-free,
economical operation.
2.2 Intended use
The ProVent®was constructed using state-of-
the-art technology in accordance with recog-
nised safety specifications. However, the
functional safety of downstream assemblies
may be affected if:
– the ProVent®is used incorrectly or for a
purpose for which it was not intended,
– the operating conditions change,
– conversions are carried out without consul-
tation with the manufacturer,
– necessary maintenance and repair work is
not performed.
Use the ProVent®only if in perfect condition
and in accordance with the respective techni-
cal specications, observing correct proce-
dures regarding safety and danger, and in
compliance with the operating instructions.
Rectify immediately (or have rectified) all
faults, especially if they affect safety.
Intended use also includes observing operat-
ing instructions and complying with inspection
and maintenance requirements.
The lter manufacturer is not liable for dan-
gers caused by the product being filtered.
This applies in particular for the processing
of hazardous materials. The operator of the
ProVent®is responsible for providing the nec-
essary, specied safety equipment.
2.3 Operational safety
All modes of operation that may affect
operational safety of the ProVent®must be
avoided.
Independent conversions or modications to
the ProVent®are not permitted under any cir-
cumstances. Furthermore, the manufactur-
er’s warranty would imme-diately become
invalid.
All labelling and identication marks on the
ProVent®must be legible at all times.
3. Description
The ProVent®is a crankcase ventilation sys-
tem and essentially consists of a housing with
an integral pressure control valve, a cover
with a bypass valve, an oil separator and a
support.
The ProVent®can be used as an open sys-
tem (oil seperation only) or as a closed crank-
case ventilation system (recirculation of the
blow-by gases and regulation of the crank-
case pressure as well).
The environmental regulations of each
country must be followed!

4. Installation
The ProVent®can be positioned in the sup-
port at twelve increments of 30° and at four
height settings.
– Open xing.
– Move ProVent®to required position.
– Close xing.
– Mount bracket fitted to the ProVent®
vertically.
Tightening torque: 9 ± 2 Nm.
– Attach hose lines at inlet, outlet and oil
return connectors and secure using hose
clamps.
To guarantee safe operation, the ProVent®
should be protected from dirt (by tting splash
guards).
5. Maintenance
Only carry out maintenance work when
the motor is switched off. Never start
without an oil separator and/or cover.
Danger of burns from hot air that may
escape. Housing, cover and hoses can
become very hot.
The maintenance of the ProVent®essentially
involves replacing the oil separator.
Check the ProVent®regularly for damage and
external soiling.
High-pressure cleaners may not be
used, as the valves may be damaged
and water may enter the oil circuit.
5.1. Maintenance intervals
The oil separator must be replaced in accor-
dance with specifications from the device
manufacturer or after 1000 operating hours
at the latest.
Maintenance intervals may need to be
shortened depending on the operating
conditions. In normal mode, if the O-
ring is intact and oil leaks through the
bypass valve (item 2, customer draw-
ing), this indicates that the oil sepa-
rator is worn and must be replaced
immediately.
5.2. Removing the oil separator
– Rotate the cover approx. half a turn anti-
clockwise and remove. Should the cover be
difcult to move, a tool (e.g. screwdriver)
can be used to help turn the cover (see
customer drawing).
– Pull the oil separator upwards to remove
and dispose of as per local waste regula-
tions.
5.3. Assembly
– Clean housing, cover and sealing sur-
faces.
– Change O-ring (item 2, customer drawing)
and rub in a small amount of engine oil.
– Slide the new oil separator into the housing
with a new, slightly oiled O-ring.
– Put on the cover and turn clockwise until it
latches into place.
