3949098 Cummins Compatible QSB6.7 Compressor

What does a single cylinder compressor do?

This single cylinder air compressor functions as a vital component within the pneumatic braking system of heavy commercial vehicles. By utilizing a piston-driven mechanism, it compresses intake air to supply the necessary pressure for the air processing unit and subsequent storage tanks. This specific model is engineered with high-strength components to withstand rigorous operating conditions in demanding environments.

Compatibility and engine fitment

Designed specifically for compatibility with Cummins engines, this unit is optimized for heavy-duty service. It features a water-cooled design to manage thermal loads effectively, preventing overheating during continuous operation. This ensures consistent air pressure delivery for the vehicle's braking and pneumatic systems.

Technical installation and maintenance

Technicians should note the specific technical parameters during installation, including the 3/4" - 16 UNF water inlet and outlet ports and the M10x1 air unloader port. The unit is equipped with an ESS feature and a water-cooled valve plate to enhance durability and efficiency under high-load cycles.

Ensuring optimal performance

Regular inspection of the air inlet port and the drive mechanism is recommended to maintain peak performance. Ensuring proper coolant flow through the water ports will prevent premature wear of internal components and maintain optimal compression efficiency.
