51541007181 SÜ Twin Cylinder Compressor equivalent

What does a twin cylinder compressor do?

This twin cylinder compressor is an essential component of the air brake system in heavy commercial vehicles, providing high-capacity air generation through two piston-cylinder assemblies. Designed for demanding service environments, this water-cooled unit ensures stable air pressure even during continuous operation in heavy-duty applications.

Vehicle and engine compatibility

This component is specifically engineered for MAN SÜ models, including the SÜ 263, SÜ 313, and 363 variants. It is an ideal replacement for components requiring high air output in multi-axle tractor units or heavy-duty trucks where rapid air tank replenishment is critical.

Technical specifications and installation

The assembly features a Ø100.00 mm cylinder bore and a 46mm stroke, resulting in a swept volume of 720cm³. Technical specifications include M26x1.5 air inlet/outlet ports and M22x1.5 water ports, with a total weight of 32.2 kg. Technicians should ensure the engine cooling circuit is properly integrated to support the water-cooled valve plate and cooling jacket.

Maintenance and selection guidance

Regular inspection of the through drive and port connections is recommended to maintain optimal system pressure. Consult your authorized distributor for compatibility verification.
