5001867509 Renault Trucks KERAX Air Compressor Equivalent

What does a twin cylinder compressor do?

This twin cylinder compressor serves as a critical engine-driven component within the air brake system of heavy commercial vehicles, utilizing two piston-cylinder assemblies to generate high-capacity compressed air. Designed for durability, this water-cooled unit ensures efficient thermal management during sustained high-demand operations, providing the consistent air pressure required for reliable braking performance.

Compatible Renault Trucks KERAX models

This specific model is compatible with Renault Trucks KERAX models, including various configurations such as the 330.18, 380.32, and 460.34 series. By delivering two compression strokes per revolution, it facilitates faster reservoir filling than single-cylinder alternatives, making it ideal for heavy-duty applications.

Installation and technical specifications

The assembly features an M26x1,5 air inlet and outlet port, alongside M18x1,5 water inlet and outlet ports for integrated cooling. Technicians should verify the through drive configuration and ensure all mounting interfaces match the existing engine setup to ensure proper installation and long-term service life.

Maintenance and system checks

Regular inspection of the water-cooled valve plate and port connections is recommended to prevent leaks or pressure drops in the pneumatic circuit.
