1600 170 350 Compatible PACCAR Compressor Cooling Plate

What does a compressor cooling plate do?

This compressor cooling plate plays a decisive role in managing compression heat within the air brake system. By facilitating efficient thermal regulation, this component helps extend the service life of critical elements such as valve plates, piston rings, and gaskets. It is engineered from high-strength components to withstand the high-pressure and vibration loads typical of heavy commercial vehicle operation.

Compatible vehicles and engines

This part is compatible with PACCAR MX11 and MX13 engines, including MX-11 and MX-13 variants. It is fitted to various Peterbilt models such as the 388, 389, 567, 579, and 587, as well as Kenworth models like the T680, T800, and W900S. These components are also used in W990, T660, 384, 386, 367, 365, 567, 589, and T880 heavy commercial vehicles.

Installation and maintenance

During an overhaul, technicians should inspect the plate for surface flatness to prevent leaks. Proper installation requires checking the channel cleanliness and ensuring the plate is seated correctly against the compressor housing to maintain optimal airflow or coolant circulation. Consult your authorized distributor for precise installation guidance.

System reliability

Maintaining thermal stability in the compressor prevents premature component failure. Selecting a cooling plate that matches the specific engine requirements ensures the long-term reliability of the pneumatic braking system.
