Valeo Alternator 12V 210A 443426

The Valeo alternator listed here is a 12V unit with a 210A charge current and part number 443426. It is an OE product and is supplied as an each item, with three-point mounting and a stated weight of 8.33kg.

For BMW applications, the fitment information provided points to multiple 1 Series and 5 Series applications, with BMW 6, X5 and X6 also listed in the broader fitment grouping. Because alternators must match the vehicle’s charging system and mounting arrangement exactly, the part number and application details should be checked before ordering.

This is a rotating electrical component, so correct identification matters. A 12V, 210A alternator is not something to select by appearance alone, and the three-point mounting detail is an important physical checkpoint when comparing against the removed unit.

Valeo’s OE product designation and the one-year warranty give useful context for buyers who want a direct replacement-style alternator. As with any charging system part, the safest approach is to verify the existing unit’s part number 443426, voltage, output rating, and mount style against the vehicle application.

Application and Buying Notes

Alternators are sensitive to vehicle application, so the most important checks here are 12V system compatibility, 210A output, and the three-point mounting arrangement. If the replacement unit does not match those details, it may not install correctly or may not suit the vehicle’s charging system requirements.

Part number 443426 is the clearest identifier to compare against the old alternator or the vehicle’s parts listing. Where the car is already equipped with a Valeo unit, matching the number, output rating, and mounting style is the safest way to confirm the replacement.

The listed weight of 8.33kg can be useful when comparing the physical unit against the removed part, but weight alone should not be used to confirm fitment. Alternator housings can look similar across applications, yet the mounting and electrical specification still need to line up.

Because BMW applications appear in the fitment data for 1 Series, 5 Series, 6 Series, X5 and X6 references, it is sensible to cross-check the exact vehicle details rather than relying on the model family alone. A correct match depends on the specific application, not just the badge on the tailgate.

The OE product designation and one-year warranty provide confidence in the product class, but they do not replace application checking. Confirming the part number 443426, the 12V system, the 210A charge current, and the three-point mounting points will reduce the chance of ordering the wrong alternator.

Before supply, the safest approach is to confirm the original unit details against the listed part number, voltage, output rating, mounting arrangement, and pulley configuration. That checking process is standard practice in the parts trade because visually similar units can still differ in service-critical ways.

For workshop, fleet, and equipment applications, accurate identification of part number 443426 helps avoid unnecessary freight, additional labour, and vehicle or machine downtime. Where the application is not straightforward, the original unit, OEM reference, or workshop records should be used as the primary confirmation point.

Valeo Alternator 12V 210A. Part number 443426 should be checked first. Listed output rating is 210. These details form the core reference points used by parts interpreters when confirming the correct replacement.

For part number 443426, the normal identification sequence is part number, electrical rating, mounting arrangement, connector or terminal style, and pulley or drive details. Using those checkpoints helps confirm that the listed unit matches the service requirement rather than only looking similar.

For a alternator in workshop, fleet, trade, agricultural, or construction service, the listed output 210 should be checked carefully. Incorrect selection can affect installation time, return freight, and equipment availability.

Compatibility note: Please confirm fitment by checking the vehicle application details, the removed alternator’s part number, and the listed specifications, especially 12V, 210A, part number 443426, and three-point mounting, before purchase.
