This page is deliberately narrow about fitment, because 170-9918 is one of the numbers the trade applies loosely across several tonnage classes.<\/p>\n<h2>What Caterpillar calls it<\/h2>\n<p>170-9918 is listed as a hydraulic piston pump, with the parts book item name PUMP GP-PISTON. That distinguishes it from the gear-type fan pumps used on the smaller C-series machines such as the 325C, where the supply unit is a ten-tooth gear pump. On a 385C or 390D the fan pump is doing variable output work, and its control is where faults start.<\/p>\n<h2>Fitment, stated honestly<\/h2>\n<p>Trade parts data and supplier cross-references attach 170-9918 to CAT 374 and 374D, 385C, 390C and 390D, and to the 5090B, running C18 and 3456 engines.<\/p>\n<p>What we cannot confirm: listings that put this pump on a 365C or a 385B. The 365C fan pump in Caterpillar&#8217;s own numbering is 247-8968, cross-referenced as 10R-6278, and we list it on its own page. If you have been quoted 170-9918 for a 365C, check the number on the old unit before you accept it. We would rather lose the order than ship a pump that will not bolt up.<\/p>\n<h2>The circuit this pump serves<\/h2>\n<p>A 385C or 390D in the 80 to 90 tonne band rejects a large amount of heat through its cooling package, and the fan is hydraulically driven with speed controlled from coolant and hydraulic oil temperature. The pump&#8217;s displacement is varied in response to that demand. Three failure modes follow from that arrangement:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Loss of displacement.<\/strong> Internal wear means the pump cannot deliver the flow the fan needs at full command. Fan speed is capped, oil temperature climbs, and the machine derates.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Control stuck at part stroke.<\/strong> A sticky spool or a failed solenoid holds output low even when the controller asks for full cooling. This is the fault most often misdiagnosed as a bad fan motor.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Cavitation from the supply side.<\/strong> A restricted suction line or a low oil level makes the pump noise and slowly destroys it. If the old pump was noisy before it failed, check the suction path before blaming the unit.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Test in that order. Our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hongtengdaparts.com\/pt\/diagnostico-da-bomba-do-ventilador-hidraulico-da-escavadeira\/\">guia de diagn\u00f3stico de bomba hidr\u00e1ulica do ventilador<\/a> covers flow and delivery pressure measurement, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hongtengdaparts.com\/pt\/diagnostico-e-ajuste-do-regulador-da-bomba-principal-da-escavadeira\/\">the regulator article<\/a> covers the control signal. The mating motors in this class are 225-4613 for the 365C and 247-8978 for the 385C and 390D, and they are not interchangeable.<\/p>\n<h2>Fitting notes<\/h2>\n<p>Compare shaft, pilot, bolt pattern and port orientation against the removed unit before cleanup begins. Prime the casing with clean oil before cranking. Fit a new return filter element and clear the suction strainer. Route the case drain directly to tank with no restriction, since back-pressure in the casing is what finishes shaft seals. Confirm the control connector is seated, then prove full fan speed under thermal load and log both temperatures.<\/p>\n<p>Cleanliness target for axial piston units in mobile service is around ISO 4406 18\/16\/13 on Bosch Rexroth guidance. If the machine has already lost a pump, inspect the drive train before fitting: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hongtengdaparts.com\/pt\/inspecao-da-engrenagem-de-acionamento-da-bomba-hidraulica-da-escavadeira\/\">inspe\u00e7\u00e3o da engrenagem de acionamento<\/a> e <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hongtengdaparts.com\/pt\/diagnostico-de-falha-da-caixa-de-transferencia-da-bomba-da-escavadeira\/\">diagn\u00f3stico de falha da caixa de transfer\u00eancia<\/a> cover what to look for.<\/p>\n<h2>Terms<\/h2>\n<p>Minimum order one piece.
