22040500 VOLVO Single Cylinder, Air Compressor

The single cylinder air compressor is a critical component within the pneumatic system of heavy commercial vehicles, ensuring consistent air pressure for braking and auxiliary systems. This specific model is engineered with a focus on durability and high-strength performance to meet the rigorous demands of long-haul transport. The unit utilizes a water-cooling mechanism to maintain optimal operating temperatures during intensive duty cycles.

22040500 is the OE-equivalent of the VOLVO 22040500 Single Cylinder, Air Compressor used in heavy commercial vehicle systems. This part is specifically engineered to match the technical requirements of VOLVO vehicles, ensuring seamless integration with existing engine-driven pneumatic architectures. The component features a Ø85.00 mm bore and a 56 mm stroke to provide reliable swept volume performance.

For workshop technicians and fleet managers, this air compressor offers precise assembly compatibility. It features an M26x1,5 air outlet port and an M12x1,5 air unloader port, along with M16x1,5 fittings for water inlet and outlet. The inclusion of the ESS feature and water-cooled valve plate design ensures stable operation under high thermal loads. Regular inspection of the water cooling lines and port integrity is recommended during scheduled maintenance intervals to ensure peak system performance.

Maintaining the pneumatic integrity of the vehicle requires high-grade components that can withstand constant pressure fluctuations. This single cylinder unit is built to provide steady airflow while minimizing vibration and mechanical wear within the compressor-driven assembly.
