20846000 Compatible Compressor for Volvo FH16

What does a twin cylinder compressor do?

This twin cylinder compressor serves as a critical component within the air brake system of heavy commercial vehicles, ensuring consistent pneumatic pressure for braking and auxiliary functions. Built with high-strength components, it utilizes a water-cooled design to maintain optimal thermal stability during continuous operation in demanding environments.

Vehicle and engine compatibility

This specific unit is designed for Volvo FH16 trucks equipped with D16G engines. It provides reliable performance by integrating an ESS feature and a water-cooled valve plate to manage heat effectively during high-load cycles. Consult your authorized distributor.

Installation and maintenance guidance

The unit features a Ø85.00 mm cylinder bore and a 56 mm stroke, resulting in a 636cm³ swept volume. Installation requires connection to the M26x1,5 air outlet port and M16x1,5 water inlet/outlet ports. Maintenance should focus on ensuring clean coolant flow and inspecting the M16x1,5 air unloader port to prevent system pressure irregularities.

System performance and selection

Proper selection ensures seamless integration with the vehicle's existing pneumatic architecture. Regular inspection of the through-drive mechanism and port connections is recommended to maintain long-term service life in heavy-duty applications.
