A04571304515S Single Cylinder Compressor for Mercedes-Benz

What does a single cylinder compressor do?

This single cylinder air brake compressor serves as a critical component in the pneumatic braking system of heavy commercial vehicles. By converting engine power into compressed air, it provides the necessary pressure required for safe and responsive braking performance. Built with high-strength components, this unit ensures stable operation even under sustained high-load conditions.

Vehicle compatibility and specifications

This specific model is engineered for compatibility with Mercedes-Benz applications. It features a water-cooled design to manage thermal loads effectively and includes an ESS feature for enhanced system reliability. The unit is characterized by its Ø85.00 cylinder bore, 56 mm stroke, and a swept volume of 352cm³.

Installation and maintenance guidance

For professional installation, ensure the water inlet and outlet ports (M16x1,5) are properly connected to the cooling circuit. The air inlet and outlet ports utilize M26x1,5 threading. Technicians should verify that the unloader port (M12x1,5) is correctly integrated with the governor signal to maintain optimal system pressure.

System performance and troubleshooting

Regular inspection of the through drive mechanism and cooling lines is recommended to prevent pressure drops in the brake circuit. Maintaining the integrity of these high-strength components is vital for the continued safety of the vehicle's pneumatic systems.
