7200 801 003 Volvo & Renault Compressor Crankshaft

What does a compressor crankshaft do?

This compressor crankshaft serves as a critical component within the air brake compressor, responsible for converting the engine's rotary motion into the reciprocating movement required for compression. Manufactured using high-strength components, it ensures the durability and stability of the pneumatic system under heavy-duty operating conditions.

Compatible vehicles and engines

This part is engineered for compatibility with various heavy commercial vehicle applications, including Volvo models such as FH13, FH16, FM11, FM13, VNL, VHD, FMX, B13R, and B11R, as well as Renault Trucks models like Kerax, Premium, and Magnum. It is also compatible with Mack Granite and Pinnacle units. These components are frequently used in Knorr-Bremse systems.

Installation and maintenance

For professional installation, technicians should verify all clearances and tolerances according to the specific engine service manual. Ensuring correct alignment during assembly is vital to prevent excessive vibration or premature wear of the connecting rod and bearings. Consult your authorized distributor for further assistance.

Troubleshooting and selection

Monitoring the compressor for unusual noise or vibration can help identify when a crankshaft or related overhaul kit requires attention to maintain optimal braking performance.
