Internal filter for a provent catch can.

When to change a Provent filter

Provent 200 Catch Cans do a remarkable job of filtering oily crankcase fumes from entering the inlet area. One of the common mistakes people make is not replacing the filter, or not knowing when to change a ProVent filter.

Depending on the age and condition of the engine the Provent Filter will be good for anywhere from 20 000 kms to 40 000 kms. Yes, this is a big window of difference, however once you replace the first filter, the ongoing filters will usually last a lot longer.

Maintaining a Provent 200 Catch Can

  • Check it has been installed correctly with no kinks or poor fitting clamps.
  • Remember to regularly remove accumulated oil via the drain valve & attached hose drain the excess hose. We recommend doing this every 5000 kms. If  this isn’t done, the Provent can collect enough oil to fill the can with waste oil and this will stop it from filtering correctly
  • In the cooler months you may find some water condensation in the filter. This is nothing to be alarmed about.
  • The filter can be dripping with oil. This is perfectly normal. This does not mean it needs replacing.

When does the Provent Filter need changing ?

There is no specific time frame listed for when to change a Provent filter. Usually once the filter has reached around 20 000 kms it’s time to make a closer inspection.

Step 1. Empty the drain every 5000 Kms or as required  (The catch can should never fill with oil!)

Step 2. Check how many Km’s it has been since the element filter was last changed. If it has been over 40,000 Km the filter will need changing.

Step 3. Inspect the outside of the catch can. If it is covered in oily residue, this is a tell-tale sign that the filter needs replacing.

When the filter is unable to work correctly, oily residue releases from the pressure valve in the can lid, and begins coating the outside of the can. This oily residue on the outside of the can is easily noticed. It is now time to replace the filter.

For any questions you may have on fitting or replacing Provent filters, contact us on +61 7 3376 6188.

I bought the trial pack of FTC decarbon, CRD cleaner and the engine flush to... use on my Prado 3 Litre diesel with 225K km. The diesel additive improved economy by 1 litre per 100KM. I just did the engine flush on the weekend, the oil was the usual diesel black but after to doing the flush the oil was so clean I could hardly see the oil fill line on the dipstick and it seems to start, sound and idle a lot more cleanly. 👌read more

So far so good. Bought a bundle to service our TD42T patrol, between the using... the flushing oil concentrate to get 300000km worth of oil sludge and leftovers out and the FTC decarboniser plus clean power fuel additives the car is running much better, quiter and smoother. Did add the AW10 antiwear to the engine to help as well, will add to the rest of the drive train when time prevails.read more
