1570594 Compatible Twin Cylinder Compressor — Volvo

What does a twin cylinder compressor do?

This twin cylinder compressor serves as a critical component within the pneumatic braking system of heavy commercial vehicles. By utilizing two piston-cylinder assemblies, it provides a higher air output and faster reservoir filling compared to single-cylinder units, making it ideal for demanding service conditions. This specific model is engineered with high-strength components to ensure durability and consistent pressure delivery.

Compatibility and engine fitment

This unit is specifically compatible with Volvo N12 trucks equipped with TD122 engines. It is designed for water-cooled applications, featuring M16x1.5 water inlet and outlet ports to maintain thermal stability during operation. The through-drive configuration ensures efficient power transmission from the engine to the compressor assembly.

Installation and technical specifications

For proper installation, technicians should verify that the mounting interface and port locations match the existing setup. This compressor features an M26x1.5 air inlet and outlet port and a 50 mm stroke to meet precise operational requirements. Ensuring the cooling circuit is clear and all connections are secure is vital for maintaining system integrity.

Selection guidance

When replacing an old unit, it is essential to match the specifications of the removed component exactly to avoid system mismatching.
