1300 220 001 Air Compressor for Volvo and Renault Trucks

What does a twin cylinder compressor do?

This twin cylinder air compressor serves as a critical component in the pneumatic braking system of heavy commercial vehicles, generating the necessary compressed air for reliable operation. Engineered with high-strength components, this unit utilizes two piston-cylinder assemblies to provide superior air output and faster reservoir filling compared to single-cylinder alternatives.

Compatible vehicles and engines

This specific model is engineered for compatibility with various heavy commercial vehicles, including Volvo models such as FH13, FH16, FM11, FM13, FMX, VHD, VNL, B11R, and B13R. It is also fitted to Renault Trucks models including Kerax, Magnum, and Premium. The unit is designed to work seamlessly within these complex pneumatic architectures.

Technical specifications

Technical specifications include a Ø92.00 mm cylinder bore and a 54 mm stroke. This water-cooled unit features an M26x1.5 air inlet port and M22x1.5 air outlet port, alongside M18x1.5 ports for water inlet and outlet. The assembly includes an ESS feature and a water-cooled valve plate to ensure thermal stability during heavy-duty operation.

Maintenance and installation

To maintain optimal system performance, technicians should regularly inspect the water cooling lines and check for any air leaks around the M10x1 unloader port. Regular maintenance of the cooling circuit ensures the longevity of the internal components under high-pressure demands.
