Valve for Scania TD162

The valve, part number 1556473, serves as a gate within the Scania TD162 engine to manage the intake of air and the discharge of combustion gases. By opening and closing at precise intervals during the engine cycle, this component ensures that the combustion chamber maintains the necessary seal for efficient operation. It is manufactured to meet the specific requirements of the Scania TD162 engine assembly.

This component is compatible with the Scania TD162 engine, which is utilized in various industrial cranes and heavy machinery applications. It is engineered to operate within the thermal and pressure parameters defined for this engine model. Proper installation and maintenance of this valve are necessary to support the intended compression ratios and overall engine functionality.

In an internal combustion engine, valves are responsible for the timing of gas exchange. They must seat correctly against the cylinder head to prevent pressure loss during the compression and power strokes. Consistent valve operation is required to facilitate the flow of air and exhaust gases, which directly influences the power output and operational stability of the engine.
