20701801 VOLVO FH II 500 Twin Cylinder, Air Compressor

This high-strength twin cylinder air compressor is engineered to provide consistent pneumatic pressure within the heavy commercial vehicle air brake system. Designed with a robust two-cylinder configuration, it ensures reliable operation under demanding duty cycles. The component features a specialized water-cooling system to maintain optimal operating temperatures during high-load service intervals.

20701801 is the OE-equivalent air compressor used in the VOLVO FH II 500. This unit is specifically engineered to meet the technical requirements of the original equipment, ensuring seamless integration with the vehicle's air management hardware. It serves as a critical component for maintaining stable pneumatic pressure throughout the braking system.

For workshop technicians, this assembly offers precise fitment with an Ø85.00 mm cylinder bore and a 62 mm stroke. The unit includes an M26x1,5 air outlet port and an M12x1 air unloader port for efficient integration. Given its water-cooled nature, technicians must ensure proper connection of the M16x1,5 inlet and outlet ports to prevent overheating and maintain system integrity.

This component is built to withstand the rigors of heavy-duty transport environments. With a through-drive design and specialized valve plate, it maintains high volumetric efficiency. Regular inspection of the water cooling paths and port seals is recommended during routine heavy commercial vehicle maintenance to ensure long-term durability.
