About 23540455 - Centrifugal Oil Filter Assembly
Published catalog details are identification references. They do not establish current stock, supplied condition, or confirmed fitment for your engine.
23540455 identifies a centrifugal oil-filter assembly in the catalog. Identify the housing and installed connections before ordering. Inserts, seals, rotor components, and complete assemblies are different supply scopes and should not be substituted based on the filter name alone.
Technical Notes: Filters
Oil, fuel, and air filters protect the most expensive parts of the engine: bearings, injectors, and turbochargers. MTU specifies filter fineness and capacity for each series, and fuel filtration in particular is matched to the injection system, because common-rail injectors tolerate far less contamination than older pump-and-nozzle systems.
When This Type of Part Is Usually Replaced
- the scheduled service interval in the maintenance schedule is reached
- the differential-pressure indicator or a filter alarm signals restriction
- fuel contamination, water in fuel, or a dust ingress event has occurred
Checks Before Ordering
- Replace primary and secondary fuel filters together unless the maintenance schedule says otherwise
- Easy-change and spin-on versions of a filter are not always interchangeable on the same housing
- Keep one complete filter set per engine on board or on site for unplanned changes
Technical Data Status
Published catalog details help identify this part, but they are not a controlled drawing for the item offered. Measurements that are not shown here still need confirmation before substitution or order.
- Confirm the assembly number, connection arrangement, and exact list of items included in supply.
