1590264 Compressor compatible with Volvo N12 TD120

What does a twin cylinder compressor do?

This twin cylinder compressor serves as a critical component within the air brake system of heavy commercial vehicles, generating the necessary compressed air through two piston-cylinder assemblies. Designed with heavy-duty grade materials, it ensures efficient air production to meet the high demands of the braking system. The unit features a Ø75.00 mm cylinder bore and a 50 mm stroke, providing a swept volume of 440cm³ to ensure rapid reservoir filling.

Compatibility with Volvo N12 engines

This specific model is designed for use in Volvo N12 trucks equipped with TD120 engines. It features a through-drive design and is optimized for water-cooled operation via M16x1,5 inlet and outlet ports. The air side utilizes M26x1,5 ports to ensure secure connections within the pneumatic circuit.

Installation and maintenance guidance

For proper installation, technicians should verify that the mounting flange and drive gear match the original equipment requirements. Regular maintenance of the air dryer and intake filters is essential to prevent contamination of the internal valve plate. Ensuring correct water flow through the cooling ports will extend the service life of these high-strength components.

Selection and replacement advice

When replacing an existing unit, always check that the drive type and port locations align with the current installation to avoid system mismatch.
