SPM-HEP-4755 is the 12 volt, 120 amp alternator (14 V charging) with an eight rib poly V pulley, cast aluminium housings with a two arm mounting and a black rear cover with output stud and plug. It is used on Cummins ISF2.8 and ISF3.8 engines. This aftermarket version has the same mounting and electrical connector as the original, so it plugs in and bolts on where the old one came off.
It replaces Cummins 5272666 and Cummins 5318121 (current number).
Sold as one unit. Check the number on your old part, or in the parts manual for your machine, before ordering.

Frequently asked questions
Will it fit my Cummins ISF2.8?
Yes, it was made for the Cummins ISF2.8, and 2 more listed under compatible equipment. Check the old alternator is marked 5272666 or one of the cross references, because makers change parts between serial ranges.
How often should I replace the alternator on my Cummins ISF2.8?
On the Cummins ISF2.8, typically 5,000 to 10,000 hours, depending on how often the machine is started and how well the batteries are kept.
What are the signs the alternator needs replacing?
A charge warning, low battery voltage with the engine running, flickering lights or bearing noise.
Do I need to move the pulley or fan?
Check the old unit before you send it away. Pulleys and fans are often fitted to suit the machine and have to be moved across.
Why is the new alternator not charging?
Check the exciter or D+ wire, the sense wire and the belt tension. A missing excite feed is the most common reason a good alternator does not charge.
Is this a genuine Cummins 5272666?
No. It is an aftermarket alternator made to replace the Cummins 5272666. It is not made by the original manufacturer; the number only shows what it replaces.
