85000360 SP1 Volvo Compatible Twin Cylinder Compressor

What does a twin cylinder compressor do?

This twin cylinder compressor is a critical component of the pneumatic braking system, designed to provide consistent air pressure for heavy commercial vehicle applications. Built with high-strength components, this unit ensures efficient air compression and durability under rigorous operating conditions. It features a water-cooled design to maintain optimal thermal stability during continuous operation.

Compatible vehicles and engines

This specific compressor is compatible with Volvo D9 engines. It is designed to meet the rigorous demands of heavy-duty transport, ensuring that the pneumatic system receives the necessary airflow for reliable braking performance. When selecting a replacement, it is vital to ensure the drive gear and cooling ports match the existing engine configuration.

Installation and maintenance

For professional installation, technicians should verify the M16x1,5 water inlet and outlet ports and the M26x1,5 air outlet port. This unit includes an ESS feature and a water-cooled valve plate to enhance longevity. Ensure all connections are torqued to specification to prevent pressure drops in the air circuit.

Troubleshooting and selection

Always verify compatibility by checking the drive type and mounting flange against the original unit. Using a compressor with the correct swept volume and flow rate is essential to prevent delays in reservoir filling and brake response times.
