It is designed for use in heavy-duty vehicles and trailers where a consistent air supply is paramount for safety and operational control. This air reservoir provides a stable air reserve, contributing to consistent brake engagement and reduced downtime. It measures 412 x 427 x 575 mm and meets OE specifications.

Key Features & Benefits

This reservoir’s job is pretty straightforward – it stores compressed air. The air compressor builds up pressure, and this tank holds that pressure, ready to be used when you need it. It’s not just holding air though, it’s maintaining a consistent supply, smoothing out the peaks and valleys from the compressor itself. Think of it like a water tower for your brakes – always available when needed. In a vehicle with air brakes – usually larger trucks, buses, or some trailers – this reservoir is a key part of the whole braking system. The compressor pumps air into it, and then that stored air is used to operate the air brakes themselves, and often other systems like the horn or certain accessories. It’s connected to a network of air lines running throughout the vehicle. It needs to be able to handle fluctuating pressures and constant use.

Symptoms, Risks & Replacements

Without a properly functioning air reservoir, your brakes won’t work reliably, plain and simple. If it leaks, or can’t hold enough pressure, you’ll notice if you need to use the brakes a lot, the brakes will feel spongy, or you might find the parking brake won’t hold. It acts like a shield, ensuring you always have sufficient air pressure for safe stopping. Because it's a safety component, it needs to be in good shape. We carry a lot of these, and you can find this 60L reservoir at Fixparts Online, along with other air brake components if you need anything else for the system.
