Baldwin PT290 Hydraulic Filter Element
The Baldwin PT290 is a hydraulic filter element designed for fluid filtration in hydraulic systems. It suits maintenance technicians and equipment operators who need a direct replacement element for compatible filter housings. The unit includes a G247 gasket and an attached O-ring for sealing. It is supplied new and ready for installation.
Fits Hydraulic Filter Housings
This element installs inside a compatible filter housing that accepts a 2-5/8 inch outside diameter and 7-5/16 inch length cartridge. The 1-1/4 inch inside diameter aligns with the housing centre post. The included gasket and O-ring seal the mating surfaces, removing the need to source separate sealing components during a service interval.
9.8 Micron Rating Captures Contaminants In Normal
The 9.8 micron rating traps particulate matter during standard hydraulic system operation. Pressure drop across the element remains consistent with the housing design and fluid viscosity. The element construction supports routine filter changes without special tools beyond those required for the host filter housing.

Questions about this item
When will the 9.8 micron rating stop catching particles under continuous flow?
The 9.8 micron element captures contaminants down to that size until the filter reaches its dirt-holding capacity, at which point pressure drop increases and the element must be replaced.
How much heat does the PT290 element add to the hydraulic fluid during all-day operation?
The filter element itself generates no heat; it only creates a small pressure drop across the 9.8 micron media as fluid passes through.
Which filter housing or head accepts the 2-5/8 inch outside diameter and 1-1/4 inch inside diameter?
The PT290 fits Baldwin filter heads and compatible housings machined for a 2-5/8 inch OD, 1-1/4 inch ID element with the included G247 gasket and attached O-ring.
