DESCRIPTION
An air compressor, also known as SMP711749, is a component of a truck's air brake system that pressurizes the air used to activate the brakes. It draws in atmospheric air and compresses it to a high pressure, typically between 100 and 120 psi. The compressed air is then stored in the truck's air tanks until needed to actuate the brakes. This allows for quick and reliable braking performance, especially in larger commercial vehicles where hydraulic brakes may not be sufficient. The air compressor is powered by the engine of the truck and requires regular maintenance to ensure proper function.
