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.

Function and system role

This component is essential for maintaining the pneumatic integrity of the air brake system. It houses the seats for the inlet and discharge valves, internal air passages, and cooling cavities. By replacing only the cylinder head, workshop technicians can rebuild a compressor in place rather than replacing the entire unit, making it a cost-effective solution for fleet maintenance.

Compatibility and application

The part is designed to handle high-pressure environments and regulates both air output and running temperatures. It is compatible with Knorr-Bremse systems and is specifically engineered to meet the rigorous demands of heavy commercial vehicle air brake applications.

Maintenance and installation

When performing maintenance, ensure that all valve seats and seals are inspected alongside the new head to ensure optimal compression. Consult your authorized distributor to confirm exact fitment for your specific compressor architecture.

OE cross-reference

20 09 50 (Compressor Cylinder Head) is the equivalent of the Knorr-Bremse OE number. This part directly replaces Knorr-Bremse OE number LK1534S1.
