1200 100 002 MAN Compatible Single Cylinder Compressor

What does a single cylinder compressor do?

This single cylinder air compressor serves as a vital component within the pneumatic braking system of heavy commercial vehicles. By utilizing a single-piston design, it compresses intake air to provide the necessary pressure for the air processing unit and storage tanks. This ensures consistent braking performance and system stability during operation.

Vehicle and system compatibility

This specific model is designed to be fitted in MAN trucks and is compatible with Knorr-Bremse systems. It features a water-cooled design to maintain optimal operating temperatures, including a water-cooled valve plate for enhanced durability under heavy-duty service conditions.

Installation and maintenance guidance

Installation requires attention to the M26x1.5 air inlet and outlet ports, as well as the M22x1.5 water inlet and outlet ports. Technicians should verify that the through drive mechanism is correctly aligned and that the cooling circuit is free of obstructions to prevent overheating during long-haul operations.

Operational troubleshooting

Regular inspection of the 300cm³ swept volume performance and port seals can help prevent pressure drops in the pneumatic circuit. Maintaining the integrity of the cooling system is essential for the longevity of this high-strength component.
