Description
Overview:
This inner air filter is a non-genuine replacement designed for two‐stage intake systems on compact construction machinery. It fits the Bobcat 320 with the Kubota D722E engine, working as the safety element inside the air box to protect the engine if the outer filter becomes saturated. Built with durable pleated media and a rigid core for strength and stable airflow, it traps fine dust and debris to maintain clean intake air and consistent performance. It is precision-made to replace Baldwin PA2489 and is intended to be used with the matching outer filter LA245. Dimensions: height 257 mm (10.12 inches), outer diameter 79 mm (3.11 inches), inner diameter 55 mm (2.17 inches). Suitable for compact excavators and similar plant operating in dusty environments.

Typical Applications:
Used as the inner (safety) air filter on compact excavators and similar machinery working on construction, landscaping, utilities, agriculture, and plant hire sites. Ideal where frequent dust exposure occurs, helping protect the engine during start-up and when the primary (outer) filter is loaded, and reducing the risk of unfiltered air reaching the intake.
