85000329 VOLVO FM 340 Twin Cylinder, Air Compressor

The heavy-duty twin cylinder air compressor is a critical component designed to maintain consistent pneumatic pressure within the vehicle's braking system. Engineered for high-strength performance, this unit ensures reliable air production and system stability under demanding operational conditions.

85000329 is the OE-equivalent twin cylinder air compressor used in the VOLVO FM 340. This high-strength component is fully compatible with VOLVO systems, ensuring precise fitment and seamless integration with existing heavy commercial vehicle architectures. The part meets the technical requirements for efficient air compression and system longevity.

For the workshop technician, this unit features a water-cooled design with specific port dimensions (Water Inlet/Outlet: M16x1,5) to facilitate optimal thermal management. The installation process is streamlined by the through-drive capability and standardized air ports (Inlet: Ø35, Outlet: M26x1,5). Regular checks of the unloader port (M12x1) and water-cooled valve plate are recommended during routine maintenance to ensure peak performance.

Maintaining a stable air supply is vital for heavy commercial vehicle safety. This compressor is built to withstand high-stress environments, providing consistent service intervals and robust structural integrity for long-haul operations.
