1300 240 002 Compatible Twin Cylinder Compressor

What does a twin cylinder compressor do?

This twin cylinder air compressor is an engine-driven component essential for the pneumatic air brake system of heavy commercial vehicles. By utilizing two piston-cylinder assemblies, it delivers higher air output and faster reservoir filling compared to single-cylinder alternatives. This specific model is designed for heavy-duty performance, featuring a water-cooled configuration to maintain optimal operating temperatures under intense service conditions.

Compatible vehicles and engines

This unit is compatible with Volvo trucks such as the FH13, FH16, FM11, FM13, FMX, VHD, VNL, and B11R/B13R series, as well as Mack Granite and Pinnacle models. It is also fitted to Renault Trucks models including Kerax, Magnum, and Premium. The design ensures seamless integration with systems from WABCO and Volvo architectures.

Installation and maintenance

For optimal performance, technicians should verify the M26x1,5 air outlet port and M12x1,5 unloader port during installation. Given the water-cooled design with M16x1,5 inlet and outlet ports, ensuring a clean and leak-free coolant circuit is vital for preventing overheating. Regular inspections of the valve plate and intake system are recommended to maintain peak efficiency.

Selection guidance
