3173001 SP2 VOLVO Twin Cylinder, Air Compressor

The heavy-duty Twin Cylinder, Air Compressor provides essential pneumatic pressure for heavy commercial vehicle braking and auxiliary systems. This component is engineered to maintain consistent air output under demanding service conditions, ensuring the reliability of the vehicle's pneumatic architecture. Its robust design and precision-engineered cylinder walls are built to withstand the constant stresses of long-haul transport operations.

3173001 SP2 is the OE-equivalent than the VOLVO 3173001 SP2 air compressor used in VOLVO heavy commercial vehicles. This high-strength component is also compatible with references 7600 880 003 and 1549425 (with gear). The integration of a water-cooled system ensures optimal thermal management during peak operation, making it a reliable choice for professional workshop technicians specializing in heavy vehicle maintenance.

For workshop technicians and fleet managers, this air compressor features a water-cooled valve plate and an integrated ESS feature to enhance system longevity. Installation requires precise alignment of the M26x1,5 outlet and M22x1,5 unloader ports to prevent pneumatic leaks. Regular inspection of the water inlet and outlet ports (M16x1,5) is recommended to ensure the cooling-driven stability of the compressor remains within factory specifications.

Maintaining high-strength components like this twin-cylinder unit is critical for preventing downtime in heavy commercial fleets. By ensuring compatibility with specific Volvo engine requirements and maintaining proper cooling flow through the water inlet ports, technicians can prevent overheating and ensure consistent air pressure delivery throughout the vehicle's service life.
