Description

What does a cylinder head do?

A compressor cylinder head is the cast service part that closes off the top of an air brake compressor's cylinder block and carries the seats for the inlet and discharge valves. It holds the compressed air without leaking, routes it out through the discharge port, and carries away part of the compression heat from the body.

Compatibility and fitment

This specific cylinder head is compatible with Mercedes-Benz vehicles. It is engineered to meet OE dimensions, allowing for a precise rebuild of the compressor assembly without requiring a complete unit replacement.

Installation and maintenance

During installation, technicians should inspect the valve seats and discharge ports to ensure a proper seal. Maintaining clean mounting surfaces is essential to prevent air leaks within the pneumatic system. Always verify that the head matches the existing compressor architecture to ensure correct fitment.

Troubleshooting and selection

Regular inspection of the cylinder head can help prevent sudden pressure loss in the braking system. If air leaks are detected near the valve seats, replacing this component can restore optimal performance to the compressor.

OE cross-reference

11 01 20 (Compressor Cylinder Head) is the equivalent of the Mercedes-Benz OE number. This part directly replaces Mercedes-Benz OE number A0011301615.
