21172036 SP2 Volvo FMX D13C Air Brake Compressor Equivalent

What does a twin cylinder compressor do?

This twin cylinder compressor serves as a critical component within the pneumatic braking system, providing the necessary air pressure for vehicle safety and operation. Engineered with high-strength components, it ensures consistent air delivery even under demanding thermal conditions through its integrated water-cooled mechanism.

Compatibility with Volvo FMX D13C engines

Specifically designed for Volvo FMX trucks equipped with D13C engines, this unit features a Ø85.00 mm cylinder bore and a 62 mm stroke to meet the high air demand of heavy commercial vehicles. It is compatible with Volvo systems and includes an integrated ESS feature and a water-cooled valve plate to maintain optimal operating temperatures.

Installation and technical specifications

For correct installation, technicians should verify the through-drive configuration and ensure the water inlet and outlet ports (M16x1,5) align with the existing cooling lines. The air outlet port features an M26x1,5 thread to ensure secure connections within the pneumatic circuit. Check the compatibility list before installation.

Selection and replacement guidance

When replacing a compressor, it is vital to match the drive gear and port locations exactly to avoid system mismatch. If multiple variants exist, confirm the swept volume of 704cm³ and the specific cooling requirements of the engine setup.
