K231273N00 KNORR-BREMSE Twin Cylinder, Air Compressor

This twin cylinder air compressor is a critical component designed to provide reliable air pressure for heavy commercial vehicle pneumatic systems. Engineered with high-strength components, it ensures consistent performance under demanding operational conditions. The unit features a robust water-cooling system to maintain optimal temperature during high-load cycles, ensuring the longevity of the internal valve assembly and overall system stability.

K231273N00 is the OE-equivalent KNORR-BREMSE twin cylinder, air compressor used in heavy commercial vehicle pneumatic systems. This specific model is engineered to meet strict technical requirements, featuring a Ø92.00 cylinder bore and a 720cm³ swept volume. It is fully compatible with KNORR-BREMSE systems, ensuring seamless integration into the existing air brake architecture of the vehicle.

For workshop technicians, this unit offers straightforward installation thanks to its standardized M26x1,5 air ports and M16x1,5 water ports. Maintaining the cooling circuit and checking port connections during routine service intervals is essential to prevent overheating and ensure peak efficiency. The through-drive design and water-cooled valve plate are specifically optimized for heavy-duty duty cycles in professional transport environments.

Proper maintenance of the air compressor system helps prevent pressure drops in the braking circuit. Technicians should verify that the water inlet and outlet connections are free from debris to maintain the efficiency of the cooling process during heavy-duty operation.
