The Bomag 05904540 Intercooler is a genuine OEM component designed for BC 972 RB-4 and BC 1172 RB-4 refuse and landfill compactors. Sourced directly from Bomag, this intercooler meets the same specifications as the original unit installed at the factory, ensuring a correct fit without adaptation. This part is confirmed compatible with both the BC 972 RB-4 and BC 1172 RB-4 — two of Bomag's heavy-duty compactor models built for high-demand landfill operations. When your machine's cooling performance is on the line, installing the correct OEM intercooler keeps the engine operating within its designed thermal limits.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Thermal Spec — built to the same charge-air cooling capacity as the original, maintaining the engine's designed boost pressure and intake temperatures under continuous compaction loads
- Direct-Fit Replacement — matches the original mounting points, inlet/outlet ports, and core dimensions of the BC 972 RB-4 and BC 1172 RB-4 for a straightforward swap
- Confirmed Fitment — verified for BC 972 RB-4 and BC 1172 RB-4 refuse and landfill compactors
- Engine Protection Under Load — a functioning intercooler keeps intake air temperatures in check; a failed or leaking unit leads to power loss, elevated exhaust temps, and accelerated engine wear during heavy compaction cycles
- OEM Part Number Accuracy — order with confidence using Bomag part number 05904540 to ensure you receive the exact component for your machine
An intercooler — also called a charge-air cooler — cools the compressed air delivered by the turbocharger before it enters the engine's intake manifold. Cooler, denser air means more oxygen per combustion cycle, which supports full engine power output and cleaner combustion. On a refuse and landfill compactor like the BC 972 RB-4 or BC 1172 RB-4, where the engine works continuously under heavy load, a degraded or leaking intercooler causes intake temperatures to rise, reducing power, increasing fuel consumption, and putting additional stress on internal engine components.
