22083136 S3 Compressor Cooling Plate for Volvo FH16

What does a compressor cooling plate do?

This compressor cooling plate acts as the intermediate component situated between the cylinder block and the cylinder head within the air brake compressor. Its primary function is to transfer heat generated during the compression process into the cooling circuit, which is vital for maintaining stable operating temperatures. By effectively managing this thermal load, the plate helps extend the service life of the valve plate, piston rings, and gaskets.

Compatibility with Volvo FH16 engines

This specific part is designed for Volvo FH16 trucks equipped with D16K engines. It functions within the pneumatic system to ensure that heat is efficiently dissipated, preventing overheating during continuous high-speed operation common in long-haul applications. It is compatible with Volvo OE references to ensure precise fitment and performance.

Installation and maintenance guidance

For workshop technicians, it is essential to inspect the flatness and cleanliness of the cooling channels during every compressor overhaul. Replacing this component when wear is detected helps prevent air, water, or oil leaks between channels. Maintaining these high-strength components ensures the long-term reliability of the vehicle's braking system.

Ensuring system reliability

Consult your authorized distributor to ensure correct selection for your specific compressor configuration.
