1900 020 002 BMC Compatible Twin Cylinder Compressor

What does a twin cylinder compressor do?

This twin cylinder air compressor serves as a critical component in the air brake system of heavy commercial vehicles, generating the necessary compressed air through two piston-cylinder assemblies. Designed for high-demand applications, this unit utilizes water cooling to maintain optimal operating temperatures during heavy-duty service. It features a 75.0 mm cylinder bore and a 38mm stroke to ensure efficient air delivery.

Compatibility with BMC vehicles

This specific model is compatible with BMC vehicles and meets the requirements of Bendix OE references. It is designed to integrate seamlessly into existing pneumatic systems, providing the reliable pressure required for heavy commercial vehicle braking and auxiliary pneumatic functions.

Installation and maintenance guidance

Installation requires careful attention to the water inlet and outlet ports, which feature 1/2"-14 NPT threads. The unit includes an integrated ESS feature and a water-cooled valve plate to enhance durability under high thermal loads. Technicians should verify all connections and port sizes during installation to ensure system integrity.

Maintenance tips for long service life

To maintain peak performance, regular inspections of the unloader port and cooling lines are recommended. Proper maintenance of the water cooling circuit prevents overheating and ensures the longevity of the internal components.
