1400 010 005 Scania Compatible Twin Cylinder Compressor

What does a twin cylinder compressor do?

This twin cylinder compressor serves as a vital component in the air brake system of heavy commercial vehicles, generating high-volume compressed air through two piston-cylinder assemblies. Designed for high-demand applications, it ensures rapid reservoir filling and consistent pressure delivery for the entire braking system.

Vehicle and engine compatibility

This unit is specifically compatible with Scania vehicles. It is also fitted to other heavy commercial vehicle applications requiring high air output, such as multi-axle tractor units and heavy-duty trucks. The design incorporates a water-cooled valve plate to manage thermal loads during continuous operation.

Installation and maintenance guidance

Maintenance of this component involves monitoring the water inlet and outlet ports (M18x1,5) to prevent scaling or blockages. The unit features an M26x1,5 air inlet port and an M22x1,5 air outlet port, ensuring precise integration with existing pneumatic lines. Regular checks of the unloader port (M22x1,5) are recommended to maintain system efficiency.

Troubleshooting and selection

For optimal performance, ensure the cooling system provides adequate flow to the water ports and that all mounting interfaces are secure. This high-strength component is built to meet the rigorous demands of heavy-duty service environments.
