7200 852 022 Crankshaft for Mercedes-Benz and Setra

What does a compressor crankshaft do?

This compressor crankshaft serves as a critical component within the pneumatic air brake compressor, converting the engine's rotary motion into the necessary reciprocating motion to drive the pistons. It is manufactured from high-strength components to ensure durability under the intense mechanical stress found in heavy commercial vehicle braking systems.

Compatible vehicles and engines

This part is compatible with Mercedes-Benz models including the CONECTO (O 345) with OM 457 LA or OM 447 HLA engines, Setra Series 400 variants, and Citaro (O 530) models. It is also fitted to Mercedes-Benz CAPACITY vehicles. The crankshaft is designed to work seamlessly within WABCO systems.

Installation and maintenance

For professional workshop technicians, maintaining proper clearance and checking for excessive vibration during installation is vital to ensure long-term service life. We recommend verifying the engine type, such as the OM 457 HLA, to ensure precise fitment during the overhaul process.

Troubleshooting and selection

Regular inspection of the crankshaft assembly can help prevent sudden pneumatic system failures in bus and truck fleets. Consult your authorized distributor for further information.
