Description

What does a compressor gear do?

This compressor gear serves as the essential drive component that allows the air brake compressor to receive rotation directly from the engine. By meshing with the engine's timing gear train, it transfers necessary rotary motion to the compressor crankshaft, which drives the piston assembly to generate the compressed air required for the vehicle's braking system.

Compatible vehicles and engines

This specific component is engineered for Volvo FH16 trucks equipped with D16C engines. It is a vital part for maintaining optimal pneumatic pressure within the air brake system of heavy commercial vehicles.

Installation and maintenance

For workshop technicians, ensuring correct fitment involves verifying that the gear matches the existing tooth profile and hub connection. Maintaining these gears helps prevent system pressure drops and ensures stable air output during heavy-duty operations.

Selection guidance

Consult your authorized distributor to confirm exact specifications for your engine setup.
