22040500 Compatible FE D8K Compressor

What does a single cylinder compressor do?

This single cylinder compressor serves as a vital component within the pneumatic braking system of heavy commercial vehicles. Engineered for high-duty cycles, it provides the necessary air pressure required for reliable braking performance and system actuation. The unit is designed with a water-cooled configuration to maintain optimal operating temperatures during continuous use.

Vehicle compatibility and engine fitment

This specific model is compatible with Volvo FE trucks equipped with D8K engines. It features a swept volume of 318cm³, an Ø85.00 cylinder bore, and a 56 mm stroke to meet stringent industrial requirements. The inclusion of the ESS feature and a water-cooled valve plate ensures enhanced durability and efficiency under heavy load conditions.

Installation and technical specifications

For proper installation, technicians should verify the M26x1,5 air outlet port and M16x1,5 water inlet/outlet connections. It is essential to ensure that the through drive and unloader port (M12x1,5) align perfectly with the existing vehicle configuration to prevent pneumatic leaks or mechanical misalignment.

Selection guidance for technicians

When selecting replacement parts, always prioritize matching the technical specifications such as the air inlet port diameter and cooling type. Consulting the compatibility list ensures the correct fitment for the specific vehicle engine series.
