85000117 VOLVO FH12 D12C Twin Cylinder, Air Compressor

The air compressor is a critical component within the pneumatic braking system of heavy commercial vehicles, responsible for maintaining consistent air pressure for reliable operation. This high-strength twin cylinder unit is engineered to meet the rigorous demands of long-haul transport and heavy-duty service cycles.

This product is the OE equivalent of the VOLVO 85000117 air compressor used in the VOLVO FH12 with the D12C engine. The 85000117 model provides stable performance through its specialized water-cooling design, featuring a cylinder bore of Ø85.00 mm and a 62 mm stroke. It is specifically designed for compatibility with the specified VOLVO FH12 engine configurations to ensure seamless integration into the vehicle's air brake system.

For workshop technicians, this unit offers precise specifications including an M26x1.5 air outlet port and an M12x1 unloader port. The water-cooled valve plate design assists in thermal management during continuous operation, which is vital for maintaining system integrity under high loads. Regular inspection of the water inlet and outlet ports (M16x1,5) is recommended during routine maintenance to prevent overheating.

Maintenance of the air brake system should be performed by qualified technicians to ensure optimal pressure regulation and safety.
