The PC200-8 is one of the highest-volume excavators on the used market in Africa, the Middle East and Southeast Asia, which means filter demand follows the fleet. The catch: a filter is only as good as its part number. Ordering by machine model instead of the OEM number gets you the wrong element — usually the -7 series version or a fuel filter for a different engine spec. Below is the filter list we actually ship against for the PC200-8, with fitment notes that save you a return shipment.
1. The Complete PC200-8 Filter List
Every filter below is a stock item for us. The part numbers are the OEM cross-references suppliers list for these machines, so confirm your serial number with us before ordering and we match the variant:
| Filter | OEM part no. | Fits | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Hydraulic oil filter element | 207-60-71181 | PC200-7/8, PC200LC-8, PC220-7/8, PC240-8, PC300-7 | Related numbers 207-60-71180 / 71182 / 71183 — confirm by serial |
| Hydraulic return filter | 20Y-60-41130 | PC200-7/8 | Some PC200-8 machines list 21W-60-41150 — same position |
| Air filter element | 600-185-4100 | PC200-8 | Single element; housings vary by production year |
| Air pre-cleaner | 21N-01-31330 | PC200-8M0, PC220-8 | Cyclone pre-cleaner ahead of the main element |
| Cabin air filter | 17M-911-3530 | PC200-7/8 | Fresh-air filter in the operator cab |
| A/C filter | 208-979-7620 | PC200-8 | Air-conditioning recirculation filter |
| Suction strainer | 20Y-60-31140 | PC200-8, PC300-7/8 | Hydraulic tank suction strainer |
| Fuel filter / water separator | Confirm by serial | SAA6D107E-1 engine | Number varies by engine spec and market |
The same logic applies across the PC200 hydraulic pump and the rest of the -8 series — if you can read the old part number off the element, we can cross it in minutes.
2. Fitment Notes: Getting the Right Number
Three mistakes cause most wrong orders on the PC200-8:
- Hydraulic filter generation. The -7 series and -8 series use different hydraulic filter elements. The 207-60-71181 family covers PC200-7/8, PC200LC-8, PC220-7/8, PC240-8 and PC300-7 — if your machine is a PC200-6 or older, that number does not apply. Read the number stamped on the old element.
- Return filter variants. 20Y-60-41130 is the number most catalogs list for PC200-7/8; some PC200-8 machines reference 21W-60-41150 for the same return position. Both are the same physical job — filtering oil returning to the tank — and we confirm which one your tank takes by serial.
- Fuel filter by engine, not by machine. The PC200-8 runs the SAA6D107E-1 engine, and fuel filter specs differ between markets and emission levels. There is no single safe number to quote without the serial — anyone who quotes one without asking is guessing.
If you are servicing a PC200-7 as well, the PC200 return filter we stock covers both generations. For the -8 hydraulic filter, see the Komatsu PC200 hydraulic oil filter 207-60-71181 product page for specs and ordering.
3. Service Intervals and What Filters Cost
Komatsu schedules -8 series service by PM points rather than one universal hour count, so the honest answer is: follow the PM table in your service manual for your serial number. In practice, most fleets work to these points:
- Fuel filter / water separator: every fuel service (typically the 500-hour PM).
- Engine oil and oil filter: at the engine-oil PM interval.
- Hydraulic oil filter element (207-60-71181): the 1,000-hour PM.
- Hydraulic return filter and suction strainer: with the hydraulic oil change — 5,000 hours on the -8 series.
- Air filter element: when the restriction gauge or dust indicator shows, and at every PM in dusty work (mines, quarries, demolition).
- Cabin and A/C filters: at least once a season; more often on dusty sites.
Aftermarket pricing for the set, as a planning range per element:
| Filter | Typical aftermarket price |
|---|---|
| Hydraulic oil filter element 207-60-71181 | $15–45 |
| Hydraulic return filter 20Y-60-41130 | $10–30 |
| Air filter element 600-185-4100 | $20–60 |
| Air pre-cleaner 21N-01-31330 | $10–25 |
| Cabin air filter 17M-911-3530 | $5–15 |
| A/C filter 208-979-7620 | $8–20 |
| Fuel filter / water separator | $8–25 |
| Suction strainer 20Y-60-31140 | $15–40 |
Quality aftermarket elements run roughly 30–60% below OEM list price, and the math only works if the element is right — a wrong number at any price costs you a second shipment. That is the same reasoning behind our hydraulic filter buying guide and our guide to spotting fake filters.
4. OEM vs Aftermarket, and How to Order
For filters, the aftermarket quality gap has narrowed a lot: a certified replacement element using good media reaches OEM-level service life at a fraction of the price, and on a machine this common the cross-reference data is mature. What you should not do is buy the cheapest unbranded element — see the OEM vs aftermarket comparison for what to check. When you order from us, you get the OEM cross-reference written on the order, a serial-number check before dispatch, and stock that ships in 3–7 days FOB Shanghai or CIF to your port.
Send us your machine model, serial number and the numbers stamped on your old elements — we reply with the matched filter set, prices and shipping within 24 hours.
FAQ
Q: What is the hydraulic oil filter part number for a Komatsu PC200-8?
A: The hydraulic oil filter element is 207-60-71181, part of the 207-60-71180/71182/71183 family. It also fits PC200-7, PC200LC-8, PC220-7/8, PC240-8 and PC300-7. Confirm your machine serial before ordering so we can match the correct variant.
Q: What is the air filter part number for a Komatsu PC200-8?
A: The standard PC200-8 air filter element is 600-185-4100. PC200-8M0 and PC220-8 machines use the 21N-01-31330 pre-cleaner ahead of the main element. Air cleaner housings changed across production years, so confirm your serial number.
Q: How often should PC200-8 filters be changed?
A: Follow the PM schedule in your service manual for your serial number. As a rule of thumb on the -8 series: fuel filter and water separator at the 500-hour service, hydraulic oil filter element at the 1,000-hour service, hydraulic return filter and suction strainer with the hydraulic oil change (5,000 hours), and air filter element when the restriction gauge shows.
Q: Can I buy aftermarket filters for my Komatsu PC200-8?
A: Yes. Quality aftermarket elements cross-referenced to the OEM numbers above run roughly 30–60% below OEM list price. We stock the PC200-8 filter set — hydraulic oil filter 207-60-71181, return filter 20Y-60-41130, air filter 600-185-4100 — and confirm fitment by serial before shipping.
