A9361303715 Mercedes-Benz ECONIC 2 Compressor

What does a twin cylinder compressor do?

This twin cylinder compressor serves as a critical engine-driven unit within the air brake system, specifically engineered to meet the high air demand of heavy commercial vehicles. Utilizing two piston-cylinder assemblies, it provides superior air output and faster reservoir filling compared to single-cylinder alternatives. This specific model is designed with water cooling to manage thermal loads during continuous operation, ensuring long-term reliability in demanding service environments.

Vehicle and engine compatibility

This unit is specifically fitted to Mercedes-Benz ECONIC 2 trucks, including the 2630 LL and 1830 LL models equipped with OM 936 engines. It functions seamlessly within the pneumatic braking circuit to provide consistent pressure for the vehicle's safety systems. The design includes an ESS feature and a water-cooled valve plate to optimize performance under high-pressure conditions.

Installation and maintenance guidance

For professional installation, technicians should verify that the M18x1,5 water ports and M26x1,5 air outlet match the existing vehicle lines. Maintaining clean air intake and ensuring proper coolant flow through the M18x1,5 inlet and outlet ports is essential for preventing premature wear. This component is built with high-strength components to withstand the rigors of heavy commercial use.
