1600 165 002 EURO6 Twin Cylinder Compressor

What does a twin cylinder compressor do?

This EURO6 twin cylinder compressor serves as a critical engine-driven component within the air brake system of heavy commercial vehicles. By utilizing two piston-cylinder assemblies, this unit delivers the high air output required for demanding pneumatic systems. It is engineered with heavy-duty grade materials to ensure consistent pressure delivery under intensive operating conditions.

Vehicle and engine compatibility

This specific model is compatible with PACCAR MX-13 engines and is widely fitted to DAF CF, XF, XG, and XG+ trucks. The design integrates advanced features such as a water-cooled valve plate and ESS technology to maintain optimal performance within the braking circuit. It is an essential component for ensuring reliable pneumatic pressure in heavy-duty applications.

Installation and maintenance guidance

Installation and maintenance should focus on the cooling system integrity, given the water-cooled design. The unit features M16x1.5 water inlet and outlet ports, along with an M14x1.5 air unloader port. Technicians should regularly inspect the Ø25 air inlet and Ø20 outlet connections to ensure no leaks are present during operation.

System maintenance and troubleshooting

For optimal service life, ensure the cooling lines are free of obstructions and the through drive mechanism is properly aligned. Maintaining the integrity of the water-cooled system helps prevent overheating during high-load cycles. Consult your authorized distributor for more information.
