2500 010 200 Compressor Valve Kit for Cummins N14/ISM

What does a compressor valve kit do?

A compressor valve kit is a specialized service set designed to restore the efficiency of pneumatic brake compressors. By replacing the intake and discharge valves, valve plates, and necessary sealing elements within the cylinder head, this kit ensures air flows in a single direction. This process is critical for maintaining stable system pressure and preventing slow pressure build-up in the braking system.

Vehicle and engine compatibility

This component is engineered for high-performance operation in various heavy commercial vehicles. It is compatible with Cummins N14 and ISM engines found in Freightliner, Kenworth, Volvo, Ford Trucks, Peterbilt, Sterling, Western Star, International, Orion Bus, New Flyer, Gillig, and Nabi models. This makes it an essential part for maintaining diverse fleets.

Installation and maintenance

When performing maintenance or troubleshooting slow pressure buildup, technicians should inspect the valve reeds and seals. Replacing these components can extend the service life of the compressor without requiring a full unit replacement. Ensure all mounting surfaces are clean during installation to maintain a proper seal.
