FAQ
What is the function of a compressor unloader kit?
The unloader kit manages the internal pressure of the compressor, allowing it to stop pumping air once the required pressure is reached, which prevents system overpressure.
Is this kit compatible with Perkins systems?
Yes, this unloader kit is designed to be compatible with Perkins systems found in heavy commercial vehicle applications.
What symptoms indicate a failing unloader kit?
Technicians may notice difficulty in reaching full air pressure or continuous compressor running even when the system has reached its set pressure limit.
How often should these components be inspected?
It is recommended to inspect unloading components during routine pneumatic system service to ensure there is no air leakage or mechanical wear.
What are the OE reference numbers of this part?
2400 020 310 directly replaces Perkins OE number 2488A302S4.
