Positive Crankcase Ventilation Valves

Fundamentals

When an engine operates, the combustion pressure causes gases to leak into the engine case. These gases usually contain unburned fuel, water, and chemical components that can contaminate engine oil or engine components. Therefore, a system to remove these gases becomes necessary.

The positive crankcase ventilation (PCV) valve is a simple system that introduces filtered fresh air into the crankcase. The PCV valve uses the engine’s vacuum to pull air through the crankcase and reintroduce it back into the intake manifold system.

SMP Engineered Solution designs and manufactures PCV valves used in multiple makes and models of engines. PCV valves are available in a variety of fits and forms to suit our customer needs.

Product Range

SMP Engineered Solutions designs and manufactures PCV Valves made with steel, aluminum or plastic resins bodies. They can be customized to suit special requirements.
Positive Crankcase Ventilation (PCV) Valves are commonly used on gasoline engines for light duty/passenger vehicles and some motorcycles.
SMP Engineered Solutions supplies PCV Valves for different engine manufacturers with push-on or threaded attachments; different nipple orientations and multiple hose connectors and sizes.
As a global manufacturer of emission components, complete quality control is maintained through the manufacturing process from componentry to finished product.
