1696197R DAF XF105 Twin Cylinder Air Compressor

This heavy-duty twin cylinder air compressor plays a critical role in the pneumatic braking system of heavy commercial vehicles, ensuring consistent air pressure for safe operation. Built with high-strength components, it provides stable performance under demanding service conditions, maintaining the integrity of the vehicle's air brake system through advanced engineering and precise tolerances.

1696197R is the OE-equivalent of the DAF 1696197R air compressor used in the DAF XF105. This component is specifically designed to match the technical requirements of the XF105 model, ensuring seamless integration with the existing pneumatic architecture of the vehicle.

The unit features a dual-cylinder configuration with a Ø85.00 bore and a 62/21mm stroke. It is a water-cooled (W) system, utilizing M16x1.5 inlet and outlet ports to manage thermal regulation effectively during high-load operation. The assembly includes an M33x2 air inlet port and an M22x1.5 air outlet port to facilitate standard industrial connections.

Workshop technicians should ensure that the water cooling lines are correctly connected using the M16x1.5 ports to prevent overheating. Regular inspections of the unloader port (M14x1.5) and the through-drive mechanism are recommended to maintain peak pneumatic performance and prevent system downtime in heavy commercial vehicle fleets.
