1300 190 005 Volvo Twin Cylinder Air Compressor

What does a twin cylinder air compressor do?

This twin cylinder air compressor is an essential engine-driven component designed to generate compressed air for heavy commercial vehicle braking systems. By utilizing two piston-cylinder assemblies, it provides superior air output and faster reservoir filling compared to single-cylinder units, making it ideal for demanding pneumatic requirements.

Vehicle and engine compatibility

This unit is compatible with Volvo FH, FM, FMX, and VNL series, as well as Renault Trucks models like Kerax and Magnum. It is also fitted to Mack Granite and Pinnacle trucks. The assembly features a water-cooled design with a water-cooled valve plate to manage thermal loads during intensive operation.

Installation and maintenance

Installation and maintenance should focus on the water inlet and outlet ports (M16x1.5) to ensure proper cooling flow. Technicians should verify the M26x1.5 air outlet port and M16x1.5 unloader port connections during assembly. Regular checks of the intake system are recommended to maintain optimal performance.

System performance and selection

Maintaining consistent air pressure is vital for the safety of heavy commercial vehicles. This compressor is engineered to meet high-performance standards for Volvo and WABCO systems. Check the compatibility list.
