3500 030 001 Compatible Single Cylinder Air Compressor

What does a single cylinder compressor do?

This single cylinder air brake compressor serves as a vital component in the pneumatic braking system of heavy commercial vehicles. It functions by compressing intake air and delivering it to the air processing unit and storage tanks, ensuring consistent pressure for the entire braking circuit. Built with high-strength components, this unit is designed to withstand the demanding operational cycles of heavy-duty applications.

Vehicle and system compatibility

This specific component is compatible with International vehicles and fits within Knorr-Bremse systems. It is engineered to meet the requirements of various heavy commercial vehicle configurations, providing stable air output through its single-piston, single-cylinder housing structure.

Installation and maintenance

For optimal performance, technicians should inspect the drive mechanism and mounting points during routine maintenance. Given its 12.9 KG weight and robust construction, ensuring proper alignment during installation is critical to prevent premature wear on the internal piston and ring assemblies. Consult your authorized distributor to check the compatibility list.

Troubleshooting and inspection

Monitoring air pressure levels and checking for leaks in the delivery lines can help prevent system failures. If a drop in brake pressure is detected, this compressor should be inspected to ensure it is providing sufficient volume to the air tanks.
