It is not a closed system it has a vent. If your toilet seal is good, the system vents out when the pressure in the tank goes up due to heat, chemical reaction, or increase in volume and sucks air in when the drain valve is pulled. I do not have a cyclone vent cap but my opinion is they are an unnecessary expense. A piece of wire mesh to stop birds and critters from clogging the vent is all that is needed.
If you must nitpick, it is a closed system other than that one vent.
