1300 060 001 Volvo Compatible Twin Cylinder Compressor

What does a twin cylinder compressor do?

This twin cylinder air compressor is an engine-driven unit vital for the air brake system of heavy commercial vehicles. By utilizing two piston-cylinder assemblies, it delivers a higher air output compared to single-cylinder types, ensuring pneumatic reservoirs are filled rapidly to maintain optimal braking performance. This specific model is engineered with heavy-duty grade materials to withstand high-pressure operating conditions.

Vehicle and engine compatibility

The unit is designed for a wide range of Volvo applications, including the F16, FL, and FH series models, as well as B10 and B12 variants. It is specifically suited for engines such as the TD122, TD102, and D12A. This compressor is also compatible with Knorr-Bremse systems, providing reliable air supply for various heavy-duty truck configurations.

Installation and maintenance guidance

For proper installation and maintenance, technicians should verify the water inlet and outlet ports (M16x1.5) and the air ports (M26x1.5) match the vehicle's existing lines. This water-cooled model includes a water-cooled valve plate and ESS feature to manage thermal loads effectively during continuous operation.

Selection advice

Consult your authorized distributor to ensure this unit meets the exact requirements of your specific engine and mounting configuration.
