The compressor is designed to compress air and then pump it into the pneumatic system.

The compressor is installed on the left side of the engine timing gear cover.

The compressor receives drive through an intermediate movable gear, as well as through a gear that is made integral with the compressor crankshaft.

The figure shows the installation locations of the parts and their designations according to the spare parts catalog.

We look at the figure and the table shows the decoding of the part.

The friction surfaces of the compressor are lubricated by splashing oil, which comes from the diesel distribution gears.

When the air pressure in the receiver reaches 0.73 - 0.74 MPa, the pressure regulator is triggered, and the compressor is switched off.

Air from the compressor through the regulator comes out into the atmosphere without back pressure, due to which the compressor is unloaded.

When the pressure in the receiver drops to 0.64 - 0.67 MPa, the regulator turns on the compressor, and compressed air enters the system again.
