Ultimate Oil Separation • Fits Any Diesel Engine • PV201DPK
🛡️ Ultimate Diesel Engine Protection — Fits Anything 🛡️
Universal solution for diesel engines. Protects your motor from carbon buildup, oil contamination, and performance loss caused by crankcase blow-by gases. Whether custom-mounting in a 4WD, van, ute, or commercial diesel—this kit gets the job done.
Universal Application:
✅ Universal mounting bracket for flexible installation anywhere
How It Works: The ProVent 200 unit separates oil vapour from crankcase gases before they re-enter your intake system. This reduces carbon buildup and protects turbo and intercooler components. Optional oil return to the sump keeps things neat and clean.
Key Features:
💡 Why This Matters: Oil vapour from blow-by gases causes carbon deposits that restrict airflow, coat sensors, and reduce power over time. The universal ProVent provides professional-grade protection for any diesel engine—especially important for vehicles without model-specific kits available, custom builds, or high-output tuned engines.
Every diesel engine produces blow-by gases. These oily fumes re-enter your intake system, causing carbon buildup, coating sensors, and reducing performance. A catch can is essential protection for maintaining optimal engine health.
Benefits:
💡 Universal Advantage: The ProVent 200 universal kit is perfect for vehicles without model-specific catch can options, custom builds, engine swaps, or when you want professional-grade protection with flexible mounting. With 200 L/min capacity, it handles even high-output tuned diesels with ease.

Mounting:
✅ Complete universal kit — adaptable to any diesel engine
Recommended: Competent qualified mechanic or experienced DIYer
DIY Time: 2–4 hours (depending on mounting location and complexity)
Installation Notes:
Important Considerations:
Important: As a universal kit, installation may require custom mounting and hose routing. Detailed installation guide included. Professional installation recommended if not experienced with custom installations.
Maintenance Schedule:
💡 Pro Tip: The tool-free element replacement with built-in handle makes servicing incredibly easy. No special tools required—just unscrew, replace, and you're done. Regular maintenance keeps your diesel running clean and efficient for the long haul.
Q: Will this void my manufacturer warranty?
A: No. This universal kit does not void manufacturer warranties. Supported by industry compliance and the AAAA's official guidelines. Aftermarket protection devices don't void warranty under Australian Consumer Law.
Q: What vehicles does this fit?
A: This is a universal kit suitable for any diesel engine with crankcase ventilation. It's perfect for vehicles without model-specific kits available, custom builds, engine swaps, imported vehicles, or when you want flexible mounting options.
Q: How is this different from vehicle-specific kits?
A: Vehicle-specific kits come with pre-fabricated brackets and hoses designed for exact fitment on specific models. This universal kit provides a high-quality ProVent 200 catch can with universal mounting brackets, allowing you to custom-fit it to any diesel engine. It's the same professional-grade ProVent technology, just with flexible mounting.
Q: Do I need fabrication skills to install this?
A: Basic mechanical skills are sufficient for most installations. The universal bracket mounts easily, and the kit includes hoses and fittings. Some custom hose routing may be needed depending on your engine bay layout. If you're not comfortable with custom installations, professional fitting is recommended.
Q: What does 200 L/min capacity mean?
A: This is the maximum airflow the ProVent 200 can handle. Most stock diesel engines produce 50-100 L/min of blow-by gases. The 200 L/min capacity means this catch can is suitable for stock engines, modified engines, and even high-output tuned diesels with increased blow-by.
Q: Can I use this on a tuned or modified engine?
A: Absolutely! The ProVent 200's high capacity (200 L/min) makes it ideal for tuned and high-output diesels. Modified engines often produce more blow-by than stock, so the extra capacity ensures optimal performance even under increased loads.
Q: What is integrated crankcase pressure regulation?
A: The ProVent 200 includes a built-in pressure regulating valve that maintains optimal crankcase pressure. This prevents excessive pressure buildup while ensuring proper ventilation—critical for engine longevity and preventing oil leaks.
Q: What does tool-free element replacement mean?
A: Unlike many catch cans that require tools to service, the ProVent 200 has a built-in handle that allows you to unscrew and replace the filter element by hand. No spanners, no hassle—just twist and replace. This makes servicing quick and easy.
Q: Does the ProVent return oil to the sump automatically?
A: The kit includes components for an optional oil return line with check valve. You can configure it to either: (a) collect oil in the catch can for periodic draining, or (b) return clean oil back to the sump automatically. Your choice based on preference and engine bay layout.
Q: What is open vs closed CCV systems?
A: Open CCV systems vent to atmosphere (common on older diesels). Closed systems recirculate back to the intake (common on modern diesels). The ProVent 200 works with both—you simply configure the outlet accordingly.
Q: How often do I need to drain the catch can?
A: Check every 5,000–10,000 km. Drain frequency depends on your engine condition, driving style, and whether you're using the optional sump return line. Engines with more blow-by (worn rings, high mileage, or tuned) will collect oil faster.
Q: How often should I replace the filter element?
A: Replace the MANN+HUMMEL filter element every 40,000 km. Replacement elements are readily available. The tool-free design makes replacement quick and easy.
Q: Can I use this on a petrol engine?
A: This kit is designed for diesel engines. While it would work on a petrol engine, diesel-specific features (like higher oil separation capacity) make it overkill for most petrol applications. Diesel engines produce significantly more blow-by and oil vapour than petrol engines.
Q: Why is 98% separation important?
A: Higher separation efficiency means cleaner intake air. 98% separation is professional-grade performance that keeps your intake system virtually oil-free. Lower-quality catch cans may only achieve 70-80% separation, allowing oil mist to still enter your intake.
Q: What mounting options are available?
A: The universal bracket can be mounted vertically or horizontally, giving you flexibility to fit the ProVent in tight engine bays. Common mounting locations include inner fenders, firewall, strut towers, or custom fabricated brackets. The compact design helps with fitment.
Q: Is this suitable for commercial diesels?
A: Absolutely. The ProVent 200's robust design and 200 L/min capacity make it perfect for commercial applications—trucks, buses, delivery vans, tractors, and heavy equipment. Professional-grade protection for hardworking diesels.
Q: What about imported vehicles or grey imports?
A: Perfect solution! Many imported vehicles don't have model-specific catch can kits available in Australia. This universal kit provides the same professional-grade ProVent protection with flexible mounting for any vehicle.
Q: Can I install this myself if I'm mechanically inclined?
A: Yes! If you're comfortable with basic automotive work (mounting brackets, routing hoses, connecting to crankcase system), you can install this yourself. The kit includes everything you need. Budget 2-4 hours depending on your chosen mounting location and complexity.
