21098900 Volvo FM13 D13B Compressor

What does a single cylinder compressor do?

This single cylinder compressor serves as a critical component in the pneumatic braking system of heavy commercial vehicles. It functions by compressing air to provide the necessary pressure for the brake system and other pneumatic actuators, ensuring reliable stopping power and system stability under heavy loads.

Vehicle and engine compatibility

This unit is specifically engineered for Volvo FM13 trucks equipped with D13B engines. It integrates seamlessly into the engine's cooling circuit via M16x1.5 water inlet and outlet ports, maintaining optimal operating temperatures during continuous service. This compressor is also compatible with Volvo systems.

Technical specifications and installation

Technical specifications include a Ø80.00mm cylinder bore and a 45mm stroke, delivering a swept volume of 225cm³. The air outlet port is sized at M22x1.5, while the air inlet port is M26x1.5. For installation, ensure the water-cooled valve plate is properly seated and all ports are secured to prevent pressure leaks.

Maintenance and troubleshooting

Regular inspection of the air ports and cooling lines is recommended to prevent buildup or leaks that could compromise braking performance. Consult your authorized distributor.
