Note: Intake Air Shutoff Valve - Engine may
include an intake air shutoff valve as an optional
feature that is activated by an overspeed event and
provides a positive shutoff of combustion air to the
engine. The optional air intake shutoff valve has
not been evaluated by UL as part of a UL Listed
fire pump driver.

3.2.4 Crankcase Ventilation

Vapors that form within the engine are removed from
the crankcase and gear train compartment by a
continuous, pressurized ventilation system. A slight
pressure is maintained within the engine crankcase
compartment. Vapors are expelled through a vent pipe
attached to the rocker cover. Ref. Figure #15. Contact
Clarke for an optional breather kit if vapors accumulate
in your pump room.
