85000615 Compatible Volvo FM Twin Cylinder Compressor

What does a twin cylinder compressor do?

This twin cylinder compressor serves as a critical component in the pneumatic braking system, providing the necessary compressed air for vehicle deceleration and auxiliary functions. Built with high-strength components, it is engineered to maintain consistent pressure even under rigorous operating conditions typical for heavy commercial vehicles.

Vehicle and engine compatibility

This specific unit is compatible with Volvo FM models, including the FM 300 through FM 500 series. It is also specifically designed for Volvo FM11 trucks equipped with D11B engines. This ensures precise integration within the vehicle's existing air management architecture.

Technical specifications and installation

The assembly features a water-cooled design with a water-cooled valve plate to manage thermal loads effectively. Key technical specifications include a 704cm³ swept volume, an M26x1.5 air outlet port, and an M16x1.5 air unloader port. Technicians should verify that the water inlet and outlet ports match the existing vehicle lines during installation.

Maintenance and troubleshooting

To ensure optimal system longevity, check the air inlet port (Ø35) and unloader ports for any debris before installation. Proper mounting of this 22.8 KG component is essential for maintaining correct drive gear alignment and preventing vibration-related wear in the pneumatic circuit.
