Description

What does a compressor cylinder head do?

A compressor cylinder head is the cast service component that sits on top of an air brake compressor's cylinder block and seals the compression chamber from above.

System function and performance

This component is essential for maintaining the integrity of the pneumatic system. It houses the seats for the inlet and discharge valves, as well as the internal air passages and cooling cavities. By governing both the air output and running temperature, it plays a vital role in the overall performance and durability of the air brake compressor.

Workshop application and compatibility

This part is compatible with Knorr-Bremse systems and is designed to facilitate efficient workshop rebuilds. Instead of replacing the entire compressor unit, technicians can use this cylinder head to restore compression efficiency and seal integrity.

Maintenance and installation guidance

When replacing this component, ensure that all valve seats and gaskets are inspected to maintain optimal pressure. Proper installation is key to preventing air leaks within the pneumatic circuit. Consult your authorized distributor.

OE cross-reference
