1188844 Volvo Twin Cylinder Compressor

This twin cylinder compressor serves as a critical component within the air brake system of heavy commercial vehicles, providing the necessary compressed air for braking and pneumatic functions. Built with high-strength components, this unit utilizes two piston-cylinder assemblies to deliver high air output, ensuring the system reservoirs are filled quickly and reliably under demanding conditions.

Designed specifically for Volvo N12 trucks equipped with TD120 engines, this unit features a through-drive configuration and is optimized for water cooling. Technical specifications include a 440cm³ swept volume, a Ø75.00 mm cylinder bore, and a 50 mm stroke. The air inlet and outlet ports are sized at M26x1,5, while the water inlet and outlet ports are M16x1,5 to ensure precise integration.

For successful installation and long-term service life, technicians should verify that the mounting flange and drive gear match the existing engine setup exactly. It is essential to ensure that the water cooling lines are clear of debris and that all connections are tightened to prevent leaks in the pneumatic or cooling circuits.

Maintaining the intake filter and checking the water cooling system regularly helps prevent premature wear. Choosing the correct replacement based on engine compatibility ensures optimal pressure delivery for heavy-duty operations.
