1600 170 001 PACCAR Compatible Single Cylinder Compressor

What does a single cylinder compressor do?

This single cylinder air brake compressor serves as a vital component in the pneumatic system of heavy commercial vehicles, generating the compressed air required for braking operations. Designed with high-strength components, this water-cooled unit integrates into the engine cooling circuit to prevent overheating during sustained heavy-duty operation, ensuring consistent performance under load.

Compatible vehicles and engines

This compressor is specifically engineered for PACCAR MX13 and MX-11 engines. It is compatible with various Kenworth models such as the T660, T680, T800, T880, and W990, as well as several Peterbilt models including the 365, 367, 384, 386, 388, 389, 567, 579, 587, and 589. It is also suitable for other heavy commercial vehicle applications requiring reliable air delivery.

Technical specifications and installation

Technical specifications include a Ø100.00 mm cylinder diameter and a 56 mm stroke, providing a swept volume of 440 cm³. The unit features an air inlet port of Ø30, an air outlet port of Ø20, and an unloader port of M14x1.5. For installation, ensure the water inlet and outlet ports (M16x1.5) are correctly connected to the cooling system to maintain thermal stability.

Maintenance and troubleshooting

Regular inspection of the through-drive mechanism and water connections is recommended to prevent system pressure drops. Maintaining clean coolant flow is essential for the longevity of the water-cooled valve plate and internal components.
