What does a twin cylinder compressor do?

This twin cylinder compressor is an essential component for heavy commercial vehicle air brake systems, providing the necessary compressed air for reliable braking performance. Engineered with high-strength components, this unit features a water-cooled design to maintain optimal operating temperatures during intensive use. The integration of a water-cooled valve plate ensures efficient thermal management within the cylinder assembly.

Compatible vehicles and engines

This specific model is designed for Volvo B10 and Volvo B10B trucks equipped with D10A engines. It functions as a robust replacement for original units, maintaining strict adherence to required technical parameters for heavy-duty operation. The unit is characterized by its Ø75.00 mm cylinder bore and a 440cm³ swept volume, ensuring consistent air delivery for the pneumatic system.

Installation and maintenance

Installation and maintenance should be performed by a workshop technician to ensure correct alignment of the water inlet and outlet ports (M16x1,5) and air ports (M26x1,5). Regular inspection of the unloader port (M22x1,5) and the through-drive mechanism is recommended to prevent system leaks or pressure drops. Maintaining clean coolant flow is vital for the longevity of the water-cooled assembly.

Selection guidance

When selecting replacement parts, verify the engine type and cooling requirements to ensure perfect fitment within the vehicle's pneumatic circuit.
