11 25 52 Mercedes-Benz Compressor Valve Plate

What does a compressor valve plate do?

This compressor valve plate serves as a critical component within the pneumatic air brake system, regulating air flow and pressure during the compression cycle. Manufactured with high-strength components, it is designed to withstand the high discharge temperatures and mechanical stresses found in heavy commercial vehicle air brake compressors.

Compatible Mercedes-Benz and Setra models

This part is compatible with various Mercedes-Benz models, including AXOR 2 (OM 457 LA), Setra Series 400 (OM 457 HLA/LA), Tourismo (O 350), and Travego (O 580). It is also suitable for Mercedes-Benz models such as Touro, Capacity, Citaro, Integro, Conecto, Intouro, and O 403, specifically those equipped with OM 457 or OM 447 engine series. The plate is designed to work effectively within WABCO systems.

Installation and maintenance guidance

When performing maintenance or repair on the compressor, technicians should verify the port layout and plate thickness against the original component. Ensuring the correct fitment is essential for maintaining optimal air pressure levels in the braking system. Always consult the vehicle manufacturer's service manual for specific installation torque requirements.

Selection and troubleshooting tips

To ensure correct selection, it is recommended to verify the compressor housing specifications rather than relying solely on the vehicle model. Matching the plate to the specific cylinder count and head casting ensures reliable performance during operation.
