P573086 filter element: specifications & equivalents

Q: What micron rating does P573086 use?

This element is rated 5 µm (nominal class). Always compare Beta ratings at the same test point: two brands may print different micron numbers for the same physical grade.

The P573086 is a Donaldson inline-line hydraulic filter element, rated at 5 µm class. Verify against the current manufacturer data sheet before ordering.

Filtration rating 5 µm nom.

Line type inline

Partially verified. Fit and grade trace to an official interchange document; dimensional values are compiled from 0 aftermarket listing(s) and must be confirmed against the manufacturer housing drawing. Confidence score 0.85.

Envelope dimensions, media type, collapse pressure and bypass settings are not printed in the competitive cross-reference tables. Verify against the current Donaldson data sheet and housing dimension page before ordering.

Selection pitfalls — read before you substitute

“10 µm nominal” and “12 µm at β1000” can describe the very same media — one is reported at β≥200, the other at β≥1000 per ISO 16889. Compare ratings at the same Beta test point, not just the printed micron number.
Nitrile (NBR) seals are standard for mineral hydraulic oil but fail early in some phosphate-ester fluids and at sustained high temperature; verify seal compound against the fluid data sheet (fluorocarbon/Viton executions may be required).
Fine 5 µm media loads faster and runs at a higher cold Δp than coarser grades — only downgrade cleanliness targets if the system ISO 4406 code allows it.
End-cap geometry and the number/position of O-rings block interchange even when OD and length match — visually compare end caps before fitting, especially with aftermarket cartridges.

Frequently asked questions

What micron rating does P573086 use?

This element is rated 5 µm (nominal class). Always compare Beta ratings at the same test point: two brands may print different micron numbers for the same physical grade.

What replaces the P573086 filter element?

4 partial match(es) requiring parameter review

How do I read the P573086 part number?

See the designation decoder above: each segment of P573086 encodes size, line type, filtration grade and media/collapse execution.

Is a same-envelope aftermarket element always a drop-in replacement?

No. Matching OD and length only proves the cartridge fits the bowl. End-cap style, seal compound, micron/Beta rating, collapse pressure and bypass configuration must also match; the table above tags every equivalent as full, partial or verify for exactly this reason.

How often should a hydraulic return-line element be replaced?

Replace at the housing manufacturer’s recommended differential-pressure setting (commonly signalled by a clogging indicator), or on a time-based service interval when no indicator is fitted — never wait for bypass to open continuously, because unfiltered oil then reaches the valves.
