Fuel filter for Terex MAGNUM 120

The fuel filter, part number 28062674, is a component in the fuel supply system of the engine. It retains solid particles, sediment, rust, and water present in the fuel before it reaches the injection pump and injectors. By capturing these contaminants, the filter protects the precision components of the engine from abrasion and corrosion, which helps maintain combustion efficiency and power output.

This component is compatible with the Terex MAGNUM 120. Modern fuel filters utilize pleated filter media to maximize the surface area for filtration within a compact housing. Many units also incorporate a water separator to prevent moisture from entering the high-pressure injection system, which is a common requirement for diesel engines.

Fuel filters serve as the primary defense for the fuel system. As contaminants accumulate over time, the filter can become obstructed, leading to restricted fuel flow, engine power loss, or starting difficulties. Regular replacement of the filter is a standard maintenance procedure to prevent damage to the fuel pump and injectors, ensuring the engine continues to operate within its design parameters.
