Meritor WABCO has introduced a remanufactured System Saver air compressor for select trucks that use the Mack ASET engine. Its quality is comparable to a new compressor, the company says, with the extra ecological benefit of recycling versus adding material to a landfill. A typical compressor contains approximately 40 lb of steel, iron, and aluminum, which has the metal content equivalent of approximately 1200 beverage cans.

WABCO is the original manufacturer and its subsidiary, WABCO Reman Solutions, remanufactures the compressor, making it the only Mack ASET compressor on the market tested to the same strict specifications as an original OEM product. WABCO Reman Solutions takes each compressor through a rigorous teardown and inspection process, and it’s thoroughly remanufactured using OEM components.

The remanufactured compressor will be available through Meritor’s Aftermarket group on January 2, 2014, to be serviced through that organization as well.
