Cat Crankcase Ventilation

(CV) Filter

For Cat C13 and C15 On-Highway


Diesel Engines

It takes a true system approach to engine design to meet the need for high performance
and protect air quality at the same time. Every part of the engine has an important role
to play, especially the filters.
The Cat CV Filter (part number 296-8325) is an important part of the emissions
reduction strategy employed on Cat C13 and C15 on-highway engines to meet
2007 EPA emissions standards.

Cat Crankcase Ventilation (CV) Filter


Smart Design
The Cat CV Filter incorporates the housing end cap, o-ring seals and ultra-high efficiency
media into one convenient, compact unit for ease of maintenance.
The ultra-high efficiency media element removes vaporized oil droplets and particulate
matter from the crankcase blow-by stream. Oil returns to a liquid state as it passes
through the media. The oil is then captured in the filter housing and recycled back to
the engines oil sump. At the same time, particulate matter and contaminants are trapped
in the media. Cleaned blow-by is routed to the atmosphere through the CV systems
outlet tube.

Easy to Service

The Cat CV Filter and related service


parts will be available through
authorized Cat Dealers, including
TEPS Dealers.

Replace the Cat CV Filter at the oil change interval recommended in the Operation and
Maintenance Manual. Customers using extended oil drain intervals may need to change
the filter at intervals differing from the extended oil drain interval.
No special tools are required. To remove the old filter, unscrew the used element from
its housing and discard following local filter disposal regulations. To install a new filter,
lubricate the o-rings with clean engine oil, thread into the housing and tighten to 25 N-m.
Do not over tighten.
