Stellar 109617 Air Inlet Assembly for 45R/65R V2 Compressors

If you’re unsure whether this part is compatible with your truck or equipment, please contact us to confirm fitment before purchasing.

The Stellar 109617 Air Inlet Assembly is a genuine OEM service component designed for compatible Stellar 45R and 65R V2 rotary-screw air compressors. It features an RH38E inlet-valve configuration with a 12V DC electrical system.

If the compressor will not load, unload, build pressure, or regulate airflow correctly, the Stellar 109617 may be the correct OEM replacement. Replacing a faulty inlet assembly restores controlled airflow into the compressor and supports proper loading and unloading operation.

What This Part Is Used For

The Stellar 109617 assembly regulates air entering the compressor. Its 12V DC control allows the compressor system to open or close the inlet valve as operating demand and system pressure change.

Common Reasons For Replacement:

Compressor will not build air pressure
Compressor fails to load or unload
Restricted or inconsistent inlet airflow
Air leaking through the inlet valve
Damaged 12V electrical actuator or solenoid
Inlet valve sticks open or closed
Worn or contaminated internal valve components
