Emulsion and/or ice deposits on the element and inside the canister develop when the air blast from the radiator cools the CCV assembly. The emulsions are created by water vapors condensing and combining with oil droplets in the cold air stream of the CCV system. This build-up can prematurely choke the filter and reduce filter life. The heater band and insulating sleeve are placed over the CCV canister and insulate the assembly to prevent the emulsion build-up. Reduced filter life can be avoided by installing a Racor CCV Heater Kit, the company said. Other benefits include protection against seal failure and engine shut downs. Available for the Racor CCV4500, CCV6000 and CCV8000. Kit includes heater band and insulating sleeve.
