1541705 SCANIA R490 Twin Cylinder, Air Compressor

The twin cylinder air compressor is a critical component in the pneumatic braking and control system of heavy-duty vehicles. This unit provides the necessary compressed air volume required for stable operation of the air brake systems in high-demand environments. Engineered with high-strength components, it ensures consistent pressure delivery and long-term operational reliability.

1541705 is the OE-equivalent twin cylinder air compressor used in the SCANIA R490. This part is specifically engineered to meet the precise technical requirements of the vehicle's air management system, ensuring seamless integration and optimal performance during heavy commercial transport operations.

For workshop technicians, this assembly features a specialized water-cooled design to manage thermal loads effectively. It includes an M26x1,5 air inlet port and an M22x1,5 air outlet port, along with an M22x1,5 unloader port. The unit is designed for easy installation within the engine's cooling circuit to maintain peak efficiency during service intervals.

The assembly is built to withstand heavy-duty grade conditions, providing stable pneumatic output for the vehicle's braking systems. Regular inspection of the water inlet and outlet ports (M18x1,5) is recommended during routine maintenance to ensure optimal cooling and prevent overheating during long-haul operations.
