541 130 35 19 Cylinder Head for Mercedes-Benz ACTROS MP2 / MP3

What does a compressor cylinder head do?

This compressor cylinder head acts as the essential cast component that seals the top of the air brake compressor cylinder block. It provides the necessary seating for both inlet and discharge valves, ensuring that compressed air is contained and routed correctly through the discharge port. By managing pressure and facilitating heat dissipation, this part is vital for maintaining consistent pneumatic pressure within the braking system.

Compatible vehicles and engines

Specifically engineered for Mercedes-Benz ACTROS MP2 / MP3 models utilizing the OM 502 LA engine, this component ensures precise fitment for heavy commercial vehicle applications. It is compatible with various configurations including the 2751 AE, 3360 S, and 4165 AK models. This allows workshop technicians to rebuild compressors in place, providing a cost-effective alternative to complete unit replacement.

Installation and maintenance

For professional installation, technicians should inspect the cylinder block surface and valve seats to ensure a perfect seal. Proper torque application is required when mounting the head to prevent air leaks or uneven pressure distribution. Regular inspection of the cylinder head during routine air system maintenance helps prevent unexpected downtime in fleet operations.

System reliability

Maintaining the integrity of the compressor head is crucial for the overall reliability of the pneumatic braking system in heavy trucks.
