2600 140 001 Air Compressor equivalent — Caterpillar

A twin cylinder air compressor is an engine-driven unit in the air brake system of heavy commercial vehicles that generates compressed air using two piston-cylinder assemblies.

This specific water-cooled unit provides high air output and rapid reservoir filling for heavy-duty applications. It is compatible with Freightliner, Kenworth, Peterbilt, Mack, Western Star, and International vehicles, specifically those powered by Caterpillar C15, C16, 3176, or International HT570 engines. The assembly includes an ESS feature and a water-cooled valve plate to ensure thermal stability during sustained operation.

Technicians should note the 1/2"-14 NPT water inlet and outlet ports, along with the 1/8" 27(NPT) air unloader port. When replacing this component, ensure the mounting interface and drive type match the existing setup to maintain system integrity. Regular inspection of the cooling lines and unloader port is recommended to prevent pressure fluctuations.
