K004640V KNORR-BREMSE Single Cylinder Air Compressor

This single cylinder air compressor is engineered to provide consistent and reliable air pressure within the pneumatic systems of heavy commercial vehicles. Designed with a robust single-cylinder architecture, it ensures stable performance under demanding operational conditions. The unit features a technical configuration optimized for high-pressure output and long-term durability.

K004640V is the OE-equivalent of the KNORR-BREMSE K004640V single cylinder air compressor used in KNORR-BREMSE systems. This component is critical for maintaining the integrity of the vehicle's air brake system, ensuring that the pneumatic pressure required for braking and suspension remains constant and reliable during transport operations.

The installation of this unit requires professional workshop expertise to ensure correct alignment of the M26x1.5 air inlet and M18x1.5 outlet ports. As a water-cooled component, it is essential to verify the connectivity of the M16x1.5 water inlet and outlet ports to maintain thermal stability. Regular inspections of the through drive and connections are recommended to prevent pressure drops in the system.

Maintenance of the compressor involves checking for leaks around the high-strength components and ensuring that the cooling passages remain unobstructed. This part is specifically designed to meet the rigorous standards of professional workshop technicians managing heavy-duty fleets.
