scavenger fan to remove the dust from the chamber

 

If you are bothered about the noise from the fan, connect it to the fuel pump, that way it is only running whilst the engine is running, that way you can't forget to turn it on.

 

Vortex have a very limited air flow where they work best. The fan is to keep a steady volume of air so the vortex works at efficiency. Early models of S&B did not have a fan and did a very pour job. The reason heavy equipment do not need fans is because of the high and steady flow of air. Do not try and compare the two. Does not work. Heavy equipment has a vortex designed to match the engine air flow. Our class of machines has way to may variables in air flow amounts for one unit to take care of a turbo and non turbo, for example. Hence the fan keeps the air flow to make the vortex work regardless of machine it is on. If you do not leave the fan run all the time, you might as well take the unit off and throw it away. Will do the same amount of good.

 

I loved the S&B I had on my 18 turbo xp. No problem with the fan noise. I ordered a pro xp4 and waiting to see when a S&B is available for it.

I used the one from the YXZ 1000, you can use any of them just need to make up your own plumbing and make sure that the roll cage fixing brackets are the correct size.

 

I use one myself and have over 1100 miles and the air cleaner looks almost new. A great addition for the dusty areas of the US. Also works to separate snow and rain water from the intake. PM if you need a forum discount on one.

 

Craig is GREAT guy to deal with, his prices are hard to beat, and customer service and shipping time is #1. I have bought a lot of acc. from him, but l have to admit buying the SB particle separator has been the best. I wished I’d had one on my first two machines. They just plain work.

 

This is mine after 2000 Kms never cleaned it. You get your puchase cost of the S&B back by not having to buy air filters, also so much more engine life. We hope

 

That is what my air filter looks like, but I don‘t have a $$$$$$ fancy high dollar electric gizmo to malfunction............just dual air filters.

 

DBF Mine looks the same as yours after 1500 miles of AZ dust. The S&B is my most favorite add on I've done so far.

 

S&B filters are great! To answer your question, definitely try to keep it on every ride. There's no point of having it if you're not gonna use it every ride. Gotta preserve that air filter as much as you can to insure the best air flow. UTV Stereo in AZ has them in stock. Free shipping.
