1600 080 003 Compressor Twin Cylinder — DAF

What does a twin cylinder compressor do?

This twin cylinder air compressor is a critical component of the air brake system in heavy commercial vehicles, providing high-volume compressed air through two piston-cylinder assemblies. By delivering two compression strokes per crankshaft revolution, this unit ensures rapid reservoir filling and consistent pressure for demanding pneumatic systems. It is constructed with high-strength components to withstand intense duty cycles.

Vehicle and engine compatibility

This specific model is designed for use in DAF CF and XF106 trucks featuring PACCAR MX-13 engines. It is also fitted to other heavy commercial vehicles requiring high air output. The unit is specifically engineered to meet the requirements of heavy-duty transport applications where air demand is high.

Technical specifications and cooling

Technical specifications include a Ø85.00 mm cylinder bore and a 56 mm stroke, resulting in a 636cm³ swept volume. This water-cooled unit features M26x1,5 inlet and outlet ports, along with M16x1,5 water ports to ensure optimal thermal management during operation. The through-drive configuration and ESS feature provide enhanced reliability during installation.

Installation and maintenance guidance

To ensure proper system performance, technicians should verify that all water connections are secure and the M26x1,5 ports are free of debris. Regular inspection of the water cooling lines is recommended to prevent overheating during heavy-duty operation.
