Description

What does a single cylinder compressor do?

This single cylinder air brake compressor serves as a critical component in the pneumatic braking system of heavy commercial vehicles. It functions by compressing intake air and delivering it to the air processing unit, which subsequently supplies the air tanks required for braking performance. This unit is built with high-strength components to ensure durability under constant operating pressure.

Technical specifications and compatibility

Designed for efficiency, this air-cooled single cylinder unit is suitable for vehicles with moderate air consumption requirements. It features a Ø75.00 mm bore and a 35mm stroke, providing a swept volume of 150cm³. The device is compatible with Knorr-Bremse systems and is built to meet strict industrial standards for heavy-duty service.

Installation and maintenance guidance

Maintenance of this compressor involves regular checks of the air inlet and outlet ports, which feature M26x1,5 threading. Technicians should inspect the air-cooling airflow to prevent overheating and ensure the piston assembly maintains optimal compression levels. Proper installation ensures consistent pressure delivery throughout the pneumatic circuit.

Troubleshooting braking system performance

A malfunctioning compressor can lead to decreased braking efficiency or slow pressure buildup in the tanks. Regular inspection of the drive mechanism and port connections helps prevent unexpected system failures in trucks and buses.

OE cross-reference

1500 120 009 (Single Cylinder Compressor) is the equivalent of the Knorr-Bremse OE number. This part directly replaces Knorr-Bremse OE number LK1520.
