1541705 SCANIA P340 Twin Cylinder, Air Compressor

This heavy-duty twin cylinder air compressor is a vital component within the pneumatic braking system of heavy commercial vehicles. Designed to provide consistent air pressure, it ensures the reliable operation of air-dependent mechanical systems and braking functions.

1541705 is the OE-equivalent of the SCANIA 1541705 twin cylinder air compressor used in the SCANIA P340. This component is engineered to meet strict technical standards for high-pressure environments. It features a cylinder bore of Ø88.00 and a stroke of 50 mm, delivering a swept volume of 608cm³ to maintain stable pneumatic output.

For workshop technicians, this part offers precise fitment with specific port dimensions including an M26x1,5 air inlet and M22x1,5 air outlet. The water-cooled design (W) utilizes M18x1,5 inlet and outlet ports to manage thermal loads during operation. It is essential to verify the through-drive and port compatibility before installation to ensure seamless integration with the existing engine architecture.

Maintaining the air compressor involves regular inspections of the water cooling ports and unloader functions. Ensuring the M22x1,5 air unloader port is unobstructed helps maintain the long-term efficiency of the pneumatic system in heavy commercial vehicle applications.
