1100 290 002 MERCEDES BENZ Twin Cylinder, Air Compressor

The heavy duty twin cylinder air compressor is a critical component within the pneumatic braking systems of heavy commercial vehicles. Engineered for durability, this unit provides consistent air pressure through a precision-engineered double-cylinder design. It utilizes water cooling to manage thermal loads effectively during high-demand operation, ensuring stable performance in demanding transport environments.

1100 290 002 is the OE-equivalent of the MERCEDES BENZ 906 130 46 15 and 906 130 63 15 air compressors used in MERCEDES BENZ CONECTO O345, INTEGRO O550, TOURINO, CITARO O530, AXOR 2, and TOURO O500 models with OM926 or OM906 engines. It is also compatible with WABCO systems such as 912 510 001 0. This component ensures seamless integration with existing pneumatic architectures in various heavy-duty bus and truck applications.

For workshop technicians, this assembly features specialized ports including an M26x1,5 air inlet/outlet and an M12x1 unloader port. The water-cooled design requires careful attention to the M14x1,5 inlet and M16x1,5 outlet connections to maintain optimal thermal regulation. Regular inspection of the through-drive and cooling paths is recommended to ensure long-term reliability within the air brake system.

Maintaining precise air pressure through this twin cylinder unit is essential for vehicle safety and braking responsiveness. The integration of the ESS feature and water-cooled valve plate provides an additional layer of reliability for professional fleet maintenance.
