Spare part update (replacement of previous code)

The Kohler technical documentation indicates that the GM47465 replaces previous filter 252834 and is indicated as the recommended spare part for the affected generators. It is also specified that the 252834 must not be used instead of GM47465.

Component function

The oil filter is a key element in engine maintenance: it works in line with the lubrication circuit and helps keep the oil in suitable operating conditions. In particular, the oil filter has the task of:

• retaining impurities and particles present in the engine oil;
• protecting the lubrication circuit;
• ensuring proper oil supply to engine components;
• contributing to the reliability and longevity of the generator set.

The GM47465 it is used on Kohler power generators equipped with engine S9C2P6. The available data indicates its presence on numerous models belonging to the following series:

• 9EFOZD
• 10EOZD
• 11EFOZD
• 13EOZD / 13EFOZD
• 15.5EOZD
• 16EFOZD
• 17.5EFOZD
• 20EOZD / 20EFOZD
• 23EOZD / 23EFOZD
• 25EFOZD
• 27EFOZD
• 28EOZD / 28EFOZD
• 32EOZD

Important note: compatibility must always be verified through spare part code and engine (S9C2P6). In case of doubt, it is advisable to check the generator set documentation or the reference indicated on the installed filter.

Operational advantages (from a maintenance perspective)

In a technical context (nautical and onboard plant engineering), using the correct replacement identified by code helps keep maintenance orderly and traceable. Choose the GM47465 when provided for engines S9C2P6 allows to:

• maintain consistency with the Kohler spare parts list and maintenance documentation;
• manage the procurement of consumable materials more easily;
• reduce the risk of errors related to previous or non-equivalent codes.

Indications from the technical bulletin (as reported)

According to what is indicated in the technical bulletin cited in the provided content, the GM47465 was introduced as an evolution of the 252834 and:

• offers about 18% more filtering material compared to 252834;
• increases the capacity to retain contaminants;
• is the recommended replacement for the affected generators.

Usage and purchase notes

How to identify the correct replacement

To avoid incompatibilities, it is recommended to base the choice on:

• Kohler Code: GM47465
• Motor: S9C2P6
• possible reference to the previous code 252834 (only as a replacement, not as a reverse equivalent).

Note on replacement 252834 → GM47465

The indicated replacement is unidirectional: the GM47465 replaces the 252834 and is backward compatible with generators that used that code; conversely, the 252834 is not indicated as a substitute for the GM47465. When ordering and managing stock, it is therefore advisable to update the reference to the most recent code.
