571179 SCANIA 124-400 Twin Cylinder, Air Compressor

The technical function of this twin cylinder air compressor is to provide consistent and reliable compressed air for the vehicle's pneumatic braking systems. Designed for heavy-duty applications, this component ensures the stable-pressure output required for safety-critical braking operations in heavy commercial vehicles.

571179 is the OE-equivalent of the SCANIA 571179 twin cylinder air compressor used in the SCANIA 124-400. This component is specifically engineered to meet the high-strength requirements of the engine system and is fully compatible with Scania vehicle architectures.

For workshop technicians, this unit features a water-cooled design with specialized ports (Water Inlet/Outlet M18x1,5) to manage thermal loads effectively. The installation process requires precision when connecting the M26x1,5 air inlet and M22x1,5 outlet ports to ensure a leak-free connection and optimal system performance during long-haul service intervals.

Maintaining the integrity of the air brake system is vital for fleet safety. This compressor model includes an ESS feature and a water-cooled valve plate to maintain durability under high-stress operating conditions typical of heavy commercial transport.
