51541009231 MAN Air Compressor Single Cylinder

The single cylinder air compressor is a vital component within the pneumatic system of heavy commercial vehicles, providing the necessary compressed air for braking and auxiliary systems. This component is engineered with high-strength components to ensure consistent performance under intense operational cycles, maintaining system pressure stability in demanding environments.

51541009231 is the OE-equivalent of the MAN 51.54100-9231 air compressor used in the MAN TGX 33.400. This water-cooled unit features a technical specification of a Ø92.00 mm cylinder bore and a 54 mm stroke, producing a swept volume of 360cm³. The inclusion of M26x1,5 air inlet/outlet ports and M16x1,5 water inlet/outlet ports ensures seamless integration into existing engine architectures.

For the workshop technician, this unit is designed for straightforward installation within the engine compartment. The water-cooled system requires precise connection of the M16x1,5 ports to maintain optimal thermal regulation during operation. Regular inspections of the through-drive and connection points are recommended to ensure long-term reliability and to prevent pneumatic leakage within the heavy commercial vehicle braking circuit.

Detailed maintenance involves checking the water cooling flow and ensuring all port connections remain secure under vibration. This single cylinder configuration provides stable air delivery, making it an essential part for maintaining the safety standards of heavy-duty transport vehicles.
