Description
What does a cylinder head do?
This cylinder head is the essential service component that sits atop an air brake compressor's cylinder block to seal the compression chamber. By providing the necessary housing for inlet and discharge valve seats, it directly governs both the air output and the running temperature of the compressor. Using this component allows workshop technicians to rebuild an existing unit rather than replacing the entire assembly.Compatibility and application
This part is compatible with Knorr-Bremse systems and is designed to withstand heavy-duty operating conditions. It ensures a secure seal within the pneumatic system, maintaining the pressure required for heavy commercial vehicle braking performance.Installation and maintenance
When performing maintenance, technicians should verify that the head matches the specific compressor architecture in use. Proper installation ensures that internal air passages and cooling cavities function correctly to prevent overheating during sustained high load cycles.System performance guidance
Consult your authorized distributor to ensure correct fitment for your specific compressor configuration.OE cross-reference
15 15 50 (Compressor Cylinder Head) is the equivalent of the Knorr-Bremse OE number. This part directly replaces Knorr-Bremse OE number K029163K50.Other OEMs

FAQ
What is the function of a compressor cylinder head?
The cylinder head seals the compression chamber from above and houses the inlet and discharge valve seats, directly controlling air output and temperature.
Can this part be used to rebuild a compressor?
Yes, this component allows workshop technicians to rebuild an air brake compressor in place, making it more efficient than replacing the entire unit.
What should be checked during installation?
Technicians should ensure all internal air passages are clear and that the head is correctly seated to maintain proper sealing in the pneumatic system.
Is this compatible with various compressor types?
The design depends on whether the compressor is single-cylinder, twin-cylinder, or features specific cooling or unloader port configurations.
What are the OE reference numbers of this part?
15 15 50 directly replaces Knorr-Bremse OE number K029163K50.
