Crankcase Ventilation for Data Center: CAT C175-16

The Challenge

A power systems dealer required a quick turn around on a closed crankcase ventilation solution for over 40 Caterpillar C175-16 engines. This would bring the total number of closed crankcase ventilation systems required to over 80 in a very short amount of time. The new solution had to integrate into the existing generator set platform with minimal modification. The engines would be used for standby / emergency power at a new data
center.

The Solution

Solberg utilized its ACV Series Advanced Crankcase Ventilation System as a readily available and economical solution. Solberg was able to apply its base model ACV and build a specific component kit tailored to the engine and the power systems dealer streamlining the installation process.

Results

With the Solberg ACV (Advanced Crankcase Ventilation) complete installation kit designed for this power systems dealer, they were able to successfully meet all testing and delivery dates with very minimal modification to the existing generator set platform.

The Product

The ACV is designed to protect your engine’s turbo, coolers, and inlet air filters as well as help ensure environmental compliance while keeping engine rooms clean, safe & free of oil mist. The series comes standard with industry leading automated vacuum control technology to regulate crankcase pressure and prevent seal leakage. The replaceable
filter element contains a proprietary media pack offering exceptional efficiency levels with an extremely long life, allowing operators up to one year before an element change is required.
