7200 862 006 Compressor Crankshaft for Cummins Engines

What does a compressor crankshaft do?

The compressor crankshaft is a critical component within the air brake compressor assembly, responsible for converting engine power into the reciprocating motion required for air compression. This high-strength component ensures the stability and durability of the pneumatic system under intense operating pressures.

Compatible vehicles and engines

This crankshaft is designed for compatibility with various heavy commercial vehicles, including Freightliner, Peterbilt, Kenworth, International, and Volvo models. It is specifically engineered to work with Cummins ISB, ISC, ISF, and ISG12 engines found in diverse applications ranging from trucks to buses. It is also fitted to BMC trucks.

Installation and maintenance

To ensure proper function, technicians should inspect the crankshaft during routine maintenance of the air brake system. Check for signs of excessive vibration or unusual noise coming from the compressor unit. When replacing this component, ensure all bearings and seals are inspected to maintain optimal air pressure generation.

Troubleshooting guidance

For exact torque and clearance specifications during assembly, always refer to the vehicle's service manual to ensure correct installation within the pneumatic system.
