k022264n00lk4952 Knorr-Bremse Compatible Twin Cylinder Compressor

What does a twin cylinder compressor do?

This twin cylinder compressor is an essential engine-driven component within the air brake system of heavy commercial vehicles, designed to generate high volumes of compressed air through two piston-cylinder assemblies. By utilizing two compression strokes per revolution, it provides significantly higher air output than single-cylinder alternatives, making it ideal for high-demand applications.

Compatibility and system application

This specific model is compatible with Knorr-Bremse systems and is engineered to operate effectively under demanding service conditions. It features a water-cooled design to maintain optimal thermal stability during sustained use, ensuring consistent performance in heavy-duty environments.

Technical specifications and design

Technical specifications include a Ø86.00 mm cylinder bore, a 54 mm stroke, and a 630cm³ swept volume. The unit is equipped with M26x1,5 air inlet and outlet ports, alongside M18x1,5 water inlet and outlet ports to facilitate seamless integration into the vehicle's cooling and pneumatic circuits.

Maintenance and troubleshooting

Maintenance professionals should regularly inspect the water-cooled valve plate and connection ports to prevent leaks or overheating. Ensuring proper coolant flow and checking the through drive mechanism will help maintain peak pneumatic performance throughout the component's service life.
