Volvo Penta 10-Micron Fuel Filter Insert 861014 | D1 D2 D3 D4 D6 AD31 AD41 TAMD KAD MD2000

Part Number: 861014
Brand: Volvo Penta (OEM Genuine)
Official Part Name: Fuel Filter Insert
Filtration Rating: 10 micron
Replaces: 828897, 838503
For Use With Separator Assemblies: 877762, 877763, 877764, 22677639

Genuine Volvo Penta 861014 is the 10-micron replaceable diesel fuel filter insert for Volvo Penta fuel filter / water separator assemblies. It is the primary service element that removes fine fuel contamination before fuel reaches the engine's injection system. 861014 is the current OEM service number for this rating and supersedes earlier references 828897 and 838503.

⚠️ Micron Rating Notice: Volvo Penta offers multiple filter elements for the same separator family. Always confirm the required micron rating before ordering:
• 861014 — 10 micron (this item)
• 1147147 — 2 micron
• 3581760 — 30 micron
Using the correct micron rating is essential — elements at different ratings serve different filtration roles within the fuel system.

Service Interval
Replace the filter insert at the Volvo Penta recommended service interval for the engine — typically annually or at specified engine-hour intervals, whichever comes first. Also replace immediately after any contaminated fuel event, if fuel flow is restricted, or if water or debris is found in the separator bowl during inspection.

When to Replace

• At the scheduled Volvo Penta service interval
• When fuel flow becomes restricted
• After contaminated fuel has entered the system
• When excessive water or debris is found in the separator bowl
• When engine performance indicates fuel starvation from a restricted pre-filter

Installation Notes

• Shut off the fuel supply before opening the separator housing
• Clean the separator housing and bowl thoroughly before installing the new element
• Inspect the housing gasket and O-rings — replace if worn or compressed
• On KAD32P-A assemblies, related components include: gasket 838504, O-ring 838506, bowl 3838848, and sealing ring 829714 — inspect these at the same time
• Install the new filter element in the correct orientation per the applicable Volvo Penta service procedure
• Prime or bleed the fuel system as required for the engine type
• Check carefully for fuel leakage at all connections after start-up

Technical FAQ

What is the difference between 861014, 3581760, and 1147147?
These are three different micron ratings for elements used in the same Volvo Penta separator family. 861014 is 10 micron (fine filtration), 3581760 is 30 micron (coarser pre-filtration), and 1147147 is 2 micron (very fine, used where ultra-clean fuel delivery is required). Always confirm the required rating against the applicable Volvo Penta service documentation for the engine before ordering.

Can I identify the right element by separator assembly number instead of engine model?
Yes — and this is the preferred method. 861014 is specifically the 10-micron element for separator assemblies 877762, 877763, 877764, and 22677639. If you have the separator assembly number, that is the most reliable way to confirm the correct element and micron rating.

What should I inspect when replacing the filter element?
While the separator is open, inspect the housing gasket, O-rings, and bowl for damage or wear. On KAD32P-A and similar assemblies, also check the gasket (838504), O-ring (838506), bowl (3838848), and sealing ring (829714). Replacing worn sealing components at the same time as the filter element prevents fuel leaks and avoids reopening the assembly shortly after service.

Parts Desk Insights
The most important detail with 861014 is the 10-micron rating. Volvo Penta offers 2-, 10-, and 30-micron elements for the same separator family, and customers frequently order by part number without confirming the micron rating — which can result in the wrong element being installed for the application. Always confirm the required rating before processing the order. The other common issue is customers ordering only the filter element and missing the housing gasket or O-ring, which then leaks after service. Having the full set of separator sealing components available at the same time is the right approach for any fuel filter service call.
