Description

This cylinder head is a critical service component that sits on top of an air brake compressor's cylinder block, sealing the compression chamber from above. It serves as the compressor cover or top cover, allowing workshop technicians to rebuild a compressor in place rather than replacing the entire unit. By providing the necessary seats for inlet and discharge valves, this part directly governs both the air output and the operating temperature of the system.

This component is designed for use in heavy commercial vehicle air brake systems and is compatible with Knorr-Bremse and Perkins systems. It ensures the integrity of the compression chamber, helping to maintain stable air pressure levels required for reliable braking performance.

When replacing this part, technicians should verify the compressor architecture to ensure a correct match. Installation requires careful inspection of the cylinder block surface and the valve plate seating to ensure a proper seal. Maintaining correct torque settings during assembly is essential to prevent leaks and ensure long-term durability under high-pressure conditions.

Consult your authorized distributor to check the compatibility list.
