457 130 69 15 Mercedes-Benz TRAVEGO OM 457 LA Compressor

What does a twin cylinder compressor do?

This twin cylinder compressor serves as a critical engine-driven component within the air brake system, providing the necessary compressed air pressure required for heavy commercial vehicle operation. By utilizing two piston-cylinder assemblies, this unit delivers higher air output and faster reservoir filling compared to single-cylinder alternatives, making it ideal for vehicles with high air consumption requirements.

Vehicle and engine compatibility

This specific model is engineered for compatibility with Mercedes-Benz TRAVEGO (O 580) vehicles equipped with the OM 457 LA engine. It features a water-cooled design to maintain optimal operating temperatures and includes an ESS feature for enhanced system performance. The unit is built with high-strength components to withstand the rigorous duty cycles of touring coaches and heavy-duty transport.

Installation and maintenance guidance

For proper installation, technicians should verify the mounting interface and port specifications, including the M26x1,5 air inlet/outlet ports and M16x1,5 water ports. Regular maintenance of the air dryer and intake filters is essential to extend the service life of the internal valve plate and piston assemblies. Always ensure the cooling lines are clear to prevent overheating during continuous operation.

Selection and service advice
