Cummins 5579292 DPF Kit

Cummins 5579292 is an EPA07 diesel particulate filter (DPF) for Cummins ISX, ISX15 and QSX15 15-litre engines. It is aftertreatment hardware, not a service element, and it is not interchangeable with the EPA10 or EPA13 DPF for the same engine block. Confirm the engine serial and the number off the removed unit before ordering.

What 5579292 Is, and the Era That Defines It

The 5579292 DPF traps soot from the exhaust stream of a Cummins ISX-family engine. It sits in the aftertreatment system, downstream of the engine, and belongs to the EPA07 generation — a build that used EGR plus a DPF and no SCR.

The era is not a detail. EPA07, EPA10 and EPA13 engines carry different aftertreatment architectures and calibrations, so their DPFs are not interchangeable even where they look alike. Cummins’ aftertreatment identification guidance treats the emissions build as part of the identity of the part, alongside the engine serial.

  1. EPA07 build

    EGR plus DPF, with no SCR. This is the era that defines 5579292.

  2. EPA10 and EPA13

    Different aftertreatment architecture and calibration. Do not assume interchangeability.

  3. Same ISX15 block

    The same engine block can carry a different DPF by emissions era.

Confirming the Part Before You Order

Work the confirmation in this order. The engine serial is the most reliable key; a VIN model year alone can mislead during transition years. You can also check a candidate number with the filter lookup tool.

Four confirmation steps for Cummins 5579292
Step What to check How to confirm
Engine serial (ESN) Most reliable key Use the ESN; a VIN model year alone can mislead during transition years.
Number off the removed DPF Seven-digit Cummins number, including any suffix Read the number stamped on the device.
Aftertreatment serial (ATSN) or CES part number 11-digit ATSN, or a CES number in AxxxBxxx form Convert it through the Cummins Emissions Catalog.
EPA emissions era Confirm EPA07 Confirm the era before ordering 5579292.

Genuine Original or Alternative — Declared Up Front

Cummins 5579292 DPF kit — genuine original or declared alternative

Genuine original or declared alternative.

We supply legitimate replacement only.

Declare it up front and we quote a genuine original reference. Where an alternative is proposed, it is labelled as one — never substituted quietly. We are a manufacturer-side supplier, not Cummins, and we make no authorised-dealer or OEM claim.

We do not supply DPF-delete or emulator devices. DPF removal is illegal in most regions and voids emissions compliance. Cummins’ documentation on genuine versus will-fit DPFs sets out why cell density, backpressure and precious-metal content matter to an aftertreatment system — a reason to confirm the maker, not a claim we make about our own stock.

No DPF-delete or emulator devices. Emissions compliance is part of the fit.

Declare it before quoting.

We quote genuine original references as such, and label any alternative clearly.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are Cummins 5579292 and 5579295 DPFs interchangeable?

No. 5579292 is EPA07; 5579295 is EPA13. They fit the same engine block but correspond to different emissions systems and calibrations.

What does the 5579292 DPF kit include?

The kit is commonly listed with gaskets 2871453 and clamps 2871863. Confirm the exact contents per quotation, as composition varies by supplier.

How do I confirm I need 5579292 and not another ISX DPF?

Match the engine serial and the number stamped on the removed unit against the emissions era. EPA07, EPA10 and EPA13 DPFs are not interchangeable.

Is a DPF a filter I replace like an oil filter?

No. A DPF is long-life aftertreatment hardware, and a DPF fault is often a symptom of an upstream service problem rather than a part to swap.

Can I get a genuine Cummins DPF instead of an alternative?

Declare it before quoting. We quote genuine original references as such, and label any alternative clearly.

Confirm the number. Then confirm the build.

Send the engine serial, the EPA emissions era, and the number off the removed DPF.
