1700 050 002 KNORR-BREMSE Compatible Twin Cylinder, Air Compressor

The heavy-duty twin cylinder air compressor is engineered to provide consistent pneumatic pressure within the vehicle's air brake system. Designed with a robust architecture, this component ensures reliable air production for heavy commercial vehicle applications, utilizing a water-cooled system to maintain optimal operating temperatures during intense service cycles.

1700 050 002 is the OE-equivalent of the KNORR-BREMSE LP4944 twin cylinder, air compressor used in RENAULT TRUCKS (5000691880) systems. This high-strength component features a cylinder bore of Ø70.00 and a swept volume of 384cm³, ensuring precise mechanical performance and long-term durability under heavy-duty load requirements.

For workshop technicians, this part offers streamlined installation thanks to its standardized M26x1,5 air ports and M18x1,5 water ports. Maintenance should focus on checking the water cooling connections and ensuring the through-drive remains unobstructed to prevent system downtime. Regular inspections of the water inlet and outlet ports are recommended to ensure the thermal management system functions correctly for the air compressor.
