Hitachi ZX200 Filter Numbers: Hydraulic, Fuel and Air

The Zaxis ZX200 family has been in the field long enough that three generations are working on the same sites: the early ZX200 and ZX210 on Isuzu 6BG1 mechanical engines, the ZX200-3 and ZX210H-3 on the 4HK1X common-rail engine, and the market variants (ZX200-3G, ZX200-X, ZX210H-3G and the HCME / HHE builds) that sit between and beside them. Filters are where that shows up first, because the hydraulic element, the fuel element and the air cleaner all follow the generation rather than the model badge.

What follows is the working version of the numbers for a buyer sourcing aftermarket parts: what each element is, what it measures in published catalogues, which brand numbers cover it, and the two places where catalogues disagree enough that you should measure before you commit to a container.

The Numbers Behind a ZX200 Filter Quote

Four elements cover the routine service on these machines. Sizes below are the published catalogue figures, with the cross-references most suppliers use to source the same element under a filter brand.

Position	Hitachi number	Published size	Cross-references in common use
Hydraulic filter element	4448402 (also 4443773)	OD 155.6–156.2 mm, length 431 mm, bore 98 mm, flanged cartridge, cellulose	Donaldson P502270 · Fleetguard HF7691 · Baldwin PT9557 / BT9557
Fuel filter element	4649267 (also 4676385)	Length 162.7 mm × OD 94.5 mm × ID 26.2 mm (other catalogues read 155–161 mm)	Donaldson P502463 / P502423 · Fleetguard FF5786 · Baldwin PF7983 / PF9868 · MANN PU10026X · MAHLE KX460D
Air cleaner, outer primary	4286128	H 371 mm × OD 237 mm × ID 131 mm, radial seal	Baldwin RS3538 · Donaldson P821938 · Fleetguard AF25414 · MANN C24553 · WIX 46776 · Sakura A2709S
Air cleaner, inner safety	4286130	H 352 mm (catalogues 351.6–353) × OD 133 mm	Baldwin RS3535 · Donaldson P821963 · Fleetguard AF25412 · MANN CF1414 · WIX 46640 · Sakura A2709MS

Two things to hold on to when you read that table. First, these are catalogue equivalences, not proof of fit: a cross-reference says a filter brand supplies one element against that Hitachi number, and the dimensions are what you check it with. Second, the two air elements are a pair in the same housing — quoting the outer alone is how a machine ends up running with no safety element behind it.

ZX200, ZX200-3, ZX200-5G: Start With the Engine

The number that changes between generations is driven by the engine, not by the paint. ZX200 and ZX210 machines on the Isuzu 6BG1 take one set; the -3 machines on the Isuzu 4HK1X common-rail engine take another. The air cleaner is the exception — application lists for 4286128 and 4286130 carry both eras, with ZX200 and ZX200LC-E (6BG1) listed alongside ZX200-3 and ZX200LC-3 (4HK1X) against the same pair of elements. That is why a mixed fleet on one site can hold one air filter number and still need two fuel numbers.

The fuel element 4649267 is documented specifically against the -3 machines with the 4HK1X: ZX200-3 and ZX200LC-3, ZX210H-3, ZX210LCH-3 and ZX210LCK-3, ZX225USLC-3 and ZX225USRLC-3, ZX240LC-3, ZX250LCH-3, ZX250LCK-3 and ZX250LCN-3, ZX270LC-3, ZX280LCN-3 and ZX280LCH-3, ZX330LC-3 and ZX350LCH-3 right up to the ZX470LCH-3 and ZX520LCH-3. The same cartridge appears on the wheeled -3 machines from ZX140W-3 through ZX170W-3 and ZX190W-3, and on the SCX400-C3, SCX500 and SCX700-C3 cranes — useful if you are stocking for a contractor whose fleet is not all excavators.

The hydraulic element runs on a wider list again. Hitachi's parts catalogue carries 4448402 against ZX200, ZX200-3G, ZX200-E and ZX200-X, ZX210H and ZX210K, the ZX225US wheeled family, ZX230, ZX240H and ZX240K, ZX250H-3G, ZX270, ZX330, ZX350H and ZX350W, the ZX380HH and the ZR130HC and ZR420JC machines. It also appears against John Deere 270C LC and 330C LC — the John Deere-built machines that share the Hitachi design — so a dealer stocking for both brands is holding one element, not two.

Hydraulic 4448402: One Element, Two Hitachi Numbers

Filter suppliers do not distinguish between 4448402 and 4443773. The catalogue entries are interchangeable: the same page that lists the element against Fleetguard HF7691, Baldwin BT9557 and Donaldson P502270 quotes Hitachi 4448402 and Hitachi 4443773 in the same line. Hitachi's own parts catalogue is more careful — it carries both numbers as separate entries, and the machine lists are similar but not identical (4443773 also appears against ZX180W, UCX300 and ZR900TS machines that 4448402 does not). So the practical rule is simple: order the number your parts book prints, and expect the aftermarket to supply one element for both.

The published data is thin but consistent, which is what you want from a hydraulic element:

Source	Published figures for this element
Baldwin (PT9557, hydraulic element)	Outside diameter 6 1/8 in (155.6 mm); contains a 20 PSID by-pass valve; inside diameter 4 13/16 in (122.2 mm) at one end
Donaldson (P502270)	Length 431 mm; beta 2 = 14 micron, beta 20 = 20 micron, beta 75 = 37 micron; weight 2.59 kg
Supplier catalogue (cartridge with flange)	Outside diameter 156.2 mm, inside diameter 98 mm, length 431 mm, cellulose media, collapse burst 6.9 bar

Two of those figures are worth more than they look. The beta ratings describe how the element filters rather than how well it is built: beta 20 = 20 micron means that at 20 micron, twenty times as much contamination is stopped as passes. A cheaper element with a lower beta at the same micron size is a different filter in the same housing, and on a common-rail machine the difference lands on the pump. The second figure is the by-pass valve — Baldwin publishes a 20 PSID valve inside PT9557. The valve is what lets oil bypass a loaded element instead of collapsing it; if an alternative supplier cannot tell you the crack pressure of its valve, that is a question worth asking before you buy a pallet.

On the diameter the catalogues converge within about a millimetre (155.6 mm against 156.2 mm), and both agree on 431 mm overall length. Note that one large seller publishes the element as 155 mm at one end and 150 mm at the other — that is a flanged element measured at the flange rather than at the body, not a different part. Measure the old element at the widest point of the body.

Fuel 4649267: Why Two Catalogues Disagree by 8 mm

This is the one number in the set where you should not order from a web page alone. The element is sold against two Donaldson numbers — P502463 and P502423 — and suppliers publish different overall lengths for it. Donaldson-numbered data for P502463 reads: length 162.7 mm, outside diameter 94.5 mm, inside diameter 26.2 mm, in the Hitachi and John Deere listings, and its replaces-list names Hitachi 4649267 and 4676385 alongside Kobelco YN21P01068R100. A European supplier page for the same family quotes length 155 mm, outside diameter 94 mm, inside diameter 24 mm and a 7 micron rating. A third supplier gives 161 mm by 94 mm by 26 mm.

The diameters agree; the lengths span roughly 155 to 163 mm. Both numbers turn up fitted to the same machines in the field, so a parts man quoting from memory is not necessarily wrong — but an 8 mm difference in a filter housing is a filter that either seats on its gasket or does not. Send the machine serial, or the number printed on the element you are removing, and we will match the cartridge rather than guess at it.

Number family	Numbers quoted against this element
Hitachi	4649267, 4676385, 467612763, 8980758550 (also 4676358 in some seller lists)
Filter brands	Donaldson P502463 / P502423 · Fleetguard FF5786 · Baldwin PF7983, PF9868 · MANN PU10026X · MAHLE KX460D · Sakura EF-2701 · HIFI 33700, SN25044 · SF SK31593
Other OEMs	Kobelco YN21P01068R100, YN21P01036R100, LS21P01013R100 · Isuzu 8971527380 · Case / New Holland 47585451 (KHH12030) · Sumitomo KHH12030 · Sany 60286607

That table is the reason this element is a good shelf item for a workshop serving mixed fleets: the same cartridge is held by Kobelco, Isuzu, Case, New Holland, Sumitomo and Sany part numbers, and the filter-brand equivalents collapse all of them onto one or two numbers.

The Air Cleaner Is a Pair, Not an Element

The air cleaner on these machines takes an outer primary and an inner safety element: 4286128 measuring 371 mm high with a 237 mm outside diameter and 131 mm inside diameter, and 4286130 at about 352 mm high with a 133 mm outside diameter. Application data for the pair runs across the whole Zaxis family — ZX200 and ZX210 on 6BG1, ZX200-3, ZX210H-3, ZX210LCH-3 and ZX210LCK-3 on 4HK1X, ZX225US, ZX230, ZX240-3, ZX250LC-3, ZX270-3 and ZX280LCH-3 — and the same air cleaner shows up on machines outside the Hitachi badge: Case CX210B and CX210C, Kobelco SK200-8 and SK210LC-8, John Deere 210CW and 245GLC, Linkbelt 210 X2 and 240 LX, New Holland E225B SR and Sumitomo SH240-3.

The inner element is the part buyers try to save money on and should not. It exists to catch what gets past the outer during a service change or after an outer element fails, and it is not designed to be cleaned: blowing it out with compressed air drives the retained dust deeper into the media and returns a filter that looks new and passes dirt. If you are ordering a service kit for a machine working in dust — crushing, quarry loading, a haul road in a dry season — order the pair.

What We Do Not Publish

Three things are deliberately missing from this page, because we would rather show you the boundary than fill it with a guess. There is no engine oil filter number for the 6BG1 or 4HK1X engines here: engine lube filters are serial-specific on these machines and we have not verified a Hitachi number against a published catalogue, so we match it from the engine serial or the number on the old filter instead. There are no service intervals, because Hitachi sets those by machine and duty cycle rather than in a public table, and a web page that invents one causes real damage. And there are no prices, because the honest variables are quantity, specification level and shipping lane.

What we will do is straightforward. Send the machine model and serial, or photographs of the old elements with a tape measure across them, and you get the numbers matched, the cross-reference alternatives listed, and a quotation for the full service set — hydraulic, fuel and the air cleaner pair — on one order. Stock dispatch is 3 to 7 days, FOB Shanghai or CIF to your port.

FAQ

Q: What is the hydraulic filter element number for a Hitachi ZX200?
A: Hitachi 4448402. Filter suppliers list the same element under Hitachi 4443773 as well, and quote it against Donaldson P502270, Fleetguard HF7691 and Baldwin PT9557 / BT9557. Published figures: outside diameter 155.6 to 156.2 mm, overall length 431 mm, bore about 98 mm, cellulose media in a flanged cartridge. Hitachi's own parts catalogue carries 4448402 and 4443773 as separate lines with overlapping machine lists, so order the number your parts book prints.

Q: Is Hitachi 4649267 the same fuel filter as 4676385?
A: Both numbers appear side by side in cross-reference data for the same fuel element. EXCO's listing for the Donaldson equivalent P502463 gives its replaces-list as Hitachi 4649267 and 4676385 plus Kobelco YN21P01068R100, and several sellers list 4649267, 4676385, 467612763 and 8980758550 together against one cartridge. Treat 4676385 as a second Hitachi number for the same element rather than a different filter, and confirm against the parts book for your serial.

Q: Does a Hitachi ZX200 need the inner air filter 4286130 as well as 4286128?
A: Yes, they are a pair in one housing. 4286128 is the outer primary element — published at 371 mm high, 237 mm outside diameter, 131 mm inside diameter — and 4286130 is the inner safety element at about 352 mm high and 133 mm outside diameter. The inner element is there to catch dust while the outer is being changed or after it fails. It should not be cleaned and blown out; that pushes retained dust deeper into the media.

Q: Why do two catalogues give different lengths for the 4649267 fuel filter?
A: Because the element is listed under two Donaldson numbers — P502463 and P502423 — and suppliers publish them with different overall lengths. The P502463 data reads 162.7 mm long with a 94.5 mm outside diameter and a 26.2 mm bore; a supplier page for the same family reads 155 mm long, 94 mm outside diameter and a 24 mm bore. Everyone agrees on about 94 mm diameter; nobody agrees on length. Measure the element you are replacing before you order.
