2500 170 003 Twin Cylinder, Air Compressor — CUMMINS

The heavy-duty twin cylinder air compressor is engineered to provide reliable pneumatic pressure for heavy commercial vehicle systems. Designed with a water-cooled architecture, this component ensures optimal thermal regulation during intensive operation, maintaining consistent performance in demanding environments. The precision-engineered cylinder bore and high-strength components are built to withstand the rigors of long-haul transportation.

2500 170 003 is the OE equivalent of the CUMMINS 3411777, 4071225, 5257958 and KNORR-BREMSE 1194456, K035001N00, LP4871 air compressors used in heavy-duty engine systems. This part is specifically designed for compatibility with CUMMINS and KNORR-BREMSE systems, ensuring seamless integration into the vehicle's pneumatic circuit.

For workshop technicians, installation requires attention to the specific water inlet and outlet port dimensions (M16x1,5) to ensure a leak-free connection. Proper maintenance of the water cooling circuit is essential to prevent overheating of the valve plate. Regular inspections of the air inlet and outlet ports (M26x1,5) are recommended during routine service intervals to maintain optimal system pressure and longevity.

This dual-cylinder configuration is optimized for high-load applications where consistent air supply is critical. By utilizing high-strength components and a robust through-drive design, it provides a reliable solution for maintaining stable air pressure within the braking and suspension subsystems of heavy commercial vehicles.
