Description

This single cylinder air compressor is a critical component within the pneumatic braking system, ensuring consistent air pressure for heavy commercial vehicle operations. Designed with a robust water-cooling mechanism, it maintains optimal thermal stability during high-load cycles to prevent performance degradation.

The 2900 040 001 is the OE equivalent of the KNORR-BREMSE II15178, II15179, and LK38, as well as the VOLKSWAGEN TRUCK 2RH145605 models. This part is engineered to meet or exceed the structural requirements of the original equipment to ensure seamless integration into existing braking architectures.

Technicians should note the specific technical dimensions: a cylinder bore of Ø88.00 mm and a stroke of 37 mm. The unit features a through-drive system and utilizes 1,2” - 14 UNF threads for both air and water inlet/outlet ports. Regular inspection of the water cooling lines and port connections is recommended to maintain system integrity.

Proper installation ensures the longevity of the pneumatic circuit and prevents unexpected downtime in the fleet. Consult your authorized distributor for compatibility verification and technical support.
