Radium Engineering Air Oil Separator – Universal Kit

IMPORTANT INSTALLATION NOTES:

-For the AOS-R to function properly, a return port on the engine must be available on the engine to the oil pan.
-The AOS-R must be mounted high enough in the engine bay so that the port on the bottom is higher than the engine return port.
-For heating purposes, engine coolant must be routed to the AOS-R to prevent condensation.

Without a properly designed air oil separator, water condensation can develop and find its way in the oil pan contaminating engine oil.

This keeps the AOS-R warm and prevents internal water condensation. Because water is more dense than oil, there is an integrated water trap found around the bottom perimeter that prevents condensation from descending into the oil pan.With a properly operating system, the fluid level inside the AOS-R will be empty after sitting. If there is a possible return obstruction, simply unscrew the AOS-R dipstick for inspection. Conversely, the entire billet unit disassembles into 3 large pieces for servicing.

For plumbing, the valve cover vent(s) are routed into the AOS-R inlet where stainless steel condensing material (shown below) separates the oil from the gasses.

The filtered liquid oil is collected at the bottom of the AOS-R and drawn into the oil pan. Meanwhile, theclean crankcase air can either vent-to-atmosphere (VTA) or vent-to-engine (VTE).Shown above is a plumbing example for the 20-0219 AOS-R, Universal VTE. All of the plumbing in the example above also applies to the 20-0819 AOS-R, Universal, VTA except for the yellow hose. This line is not required as the VTA unit vents-to-atmosphere through the top of the can.

Benefits
-Lowers hydrocarbon emissions
-Effectively raises the octane and increases engine performance with cleaner inlet air
-Prevents oil buildup in the intake or intercooler system walls, throttle body, intake manifold, etc

Measurements
AOS-R Height: 6.7″ (without fittings)

*If operated in freezing environments, Radium Engineering recommends installing insulation sleeving (not included) over any hose exposed to cold air flow. This will help prevent the natural phenomenon of water condensation freezing and potentially clogging the hose.

20-0219 AOS-R, Universal, VTE
The vent-to-engine air-oil separator has a top (inlet) and side (outlet) port. The outlet port should be routed back into the intake or turbo inlet pipe. The VTE system is a must for mass-air flow (MAF) sensor engines. Furthermore, the VTE AOS-R will not expel an undesireable gas scent into the cabin. Lastly, the VTE system will prevent any potential oil debris from coating the engine bay.
