Fuel filter (water separator) with part number 2289130 from the REDX offer. It is a high-quality filter element used in popular Caterpillar (CAT) D, E, and G series machines. Dedicated to backhoe loaders (e.g., 428D, 432E), small track-type tractors, and wheel loaders. Its main task is to separate water from diesel fuel, which is crucial for protecting the injection pump from corrosion.
REDX filters use filter media with high water coalescence capability. Thanks to this, water droplets merge into larger clusters and fall to the bottom of the sediment bowl instead of reaching the delicate components of the injection system.

Filter fits mainly D and E series CAT machines with mechanical engines (e.g., 3054). Check dimensions before purchasing.
Filter 2289130 is a separator element (primary). It should always be replaced together with the fine fuel filter (spin-on engine mounted). It is also worth getting new separator housing gaskets.
Skipping the water separator replacement or ignoring water in the sediment bowl (glass) under the filter will lead to corrosion of the injection pump. The symptom is usually difficult starting and engine smoking, and pump repair is very expensive.
The pre-filter protects the system from water and coarse contaminants.

No. Filter 2289130 is a pre-filter with a water separator (coarse). The fine filter is usually a smaller, spin-on filter mounted directly on the engine block.
Height 180 mm, outer diameter 68.6 mm, inner hole diameter 22.2 mm.
Small CAT machines like D4G dozers or 914G loaders, which fit this filter, often use hydrostatic drive. This allows for smooth speed changes and precise control without shifting gears, which is ideal for precise earthworks.
