1100 010 002 Twin Cylinder Air Compressor for Mercedes-Benz

How does this twin cylinder compressor work?

This twin cylinder compressor functions as a critical component within the air brake system of heavy commercial vehicles, utilizing two piston-cylinder assemblies to generate high-volume compressed air. By providing two compression strokes per crankshaft revolution, this unit delivers significantly higher air output than single-cylinder alternatives, ensuring rapid reservoir inflation for high-demand braking systems.

Vehicle compatibility and engine fitment

This specific model is designed for compatibility with Mercedes-Benz vehicles and is suitable for heavy commercial applications where reliable air pressure is vital. It features a water-cooled design to maintain optimal operating temperatures under heavy loads. The unit is equipped with an ESS feature and a water-cooled valve plate to enhance long-term reliability and performance.

Technical specifications and installation

Technical specifications include a Ø85.00 mm cylinder bore and a 56 mm stroke, providing a swept volume of 636cm³. The installation interface features an M26x1,5 air outlet port and an M12x1,5 unloader port, alongside M16x1,5 water inlet and outlet ports. Maintenance should focus on checking the water cooling lines and ensuring all ports remain free of debris to prevent pressure drops.

Maintenance and troubleshooting

For optimal performance in heavy-duty applications, technicians should verify the mounting interface and connection types during installation. This unit provides a robust solution for fleet managers and workshop technicians looking for reliable replacement parts for Mercedes-Benz braking systems.
