22016995 S3 Crankshaft for Volvo FH13 D13C

What does a compressor crankshaft do?

The compressor crankshaft serves as the central component that transfers rotary motion from the engine to the piston via the connecting rod. This movement is critical for maintaining consistent compression performance within the air brake system. High-strength components are required to withstand the continuous cyclic loading inherent in heavy-duty air compressor operations.

Compatible Volvo truck models and engines

This specific crankshaft is engineered for Volvo FH series trucks, including models such as the FH 400, 420, 440, 460, 480, 500, 520, and 540. It is specifically designed to work with Volvo FH13 units equipped with D13C engines. It provides a reliable replacement for worn or damaged internal components during compressor overhauls.

Installation and maintenance guidance

When replacing the crankshaft, technicians should inspect the connecting rods and bearings to ensure complete system integrity. Proper installation is vital to prevent excessive vibration or noise during high-pressure cycles. Maintaining correct lubrication levels in the compressor housing helps extend the service life of this vital component.

Troubleshooting and performance

Using high-strength components helps prevent common failure symptoms such as abnormal noise or loss of air pressure in the braking system.
