1796663 SCANIA 164-480 Twin Cylinder, Air Compressor

This heavy-duty twin cylinder air compressor is an essential component for maintaining stable pneumatic pressure within the vehicle's air brake system. Designed to handle rigorous operational cycles, the unit features a robust construction to ensure long-term reliability in heavy commercial vehicle applications.

179663 is the OE-equivalent SCANIA twin cylinder air compressor used in the SCANIA 164-480. This part is fully compatible with the SCANIA 1796663 system, ensuring precise fitment and seamless integration with original engine architectures. The technical specifications include a Ø88.00 mm cylinder bore and a 50 mm stroke to provide optimal swept volume for consistent air production.

Workshop technicians should note that this water-cooled (W) component requires careful connection of the M18x1,5 water inlet and outlet ports to prevent overheating. The inclusion of the ESS feature and a specialized water-cooled valve plate ensures the unit maintains performance under high thermal loads. Proper installation of the M26x1,5 air inlet and M22x1,5 outlet ports is critical for maintaining system integrity.

Regular maintenance of the air compressor and its cooling-water circulation path is recommended to prevent downtime. This unit is specifically engineered for heavy-duty truck applications where high-strength components and reliable air supply are mandatory for safety.
