Hydraulic Spin-On Filter 9.8 Micron
The Baldwin Filters BT8473 is a hydraulic spin-on filter rated at 9.8 microns for fluid filtration. It uses a standard spin-on design with a 3/4 inch thread size for installation. The filter includes a gasket to seal the connection. It is built for hydraulic systems requiring this micron rating.
Who This Suits And Who Should Look Elsewhere
This filter suits technicians servicing hydraulic equipment that specifies a 9.8 micron spin-on element with 3/4 inch threads. It is not for buyers who need a different micron rating or a different thread size. It is not for applications requiring a cartridge-style element instead of a spin-on canister.
Capacity And Headroom
The filter element measures 3-11/16 inches in outside diameter and 8-5/32 inches in length. It handles hydraulic fluid flows within the design limits of this housing size. It runs out of service life when the pressure differential across the media reaches the system bypass threshold.

Questions about this item
What thread size must my hydraulic system have to accept the BT8473 filter?
The BT8473 uses a 3/4 in thread size, so the housing or head you mount it on must provide the matching 3/4 in connection.
Will the BT8473 fit in the same space as my old filter that is also 3-11/16 in wide and 8-5/32 in long?
Yes, the BT8473 measures 3-11/16 in outside diameter and 8-5/32 in length, so it will occupy the same envelope as a filter with those dimensions.
How can I confirm the BT8473 is filtering correctly once installed?
Monitor system pressure differential across the filter; a steady reading within the normal range for your equipment indicates the 9.8 micron media is flowing and capturing contamination as designed.
