Screw Compressor SCR-5,5/10APM motor input 5.8 kW, delivered pressure 10 bar, volume output 41.4 Nm³/h
Code: SCR-5-5/10APMRelated products
Product detailed description
The most powerful machine without a receiver: 696 l/min at ten bar. Still in the same 650 × 600 × 860 mm enclosure and at the same 180 kg as the two smaller ones — it fits a workshop just as easily, it simply gives twice the air of the 3 kW.
Why 10 bar, and how it is regulated
Regulation runs from ten bar down to four, with the inverter holding speed to demand. The ratio of 127 l/min per kilowatt is practically the same as on the 4 kW — above four kilowatts efficiency no longer improves, only output does.
| Machines without a receiver — three outputs in an identical enclosure | |||
|---|---|---|---|
| Order code | Motor power | Delivery | Per kilowatt |
| SCR-3/10APM | 3.7 kW | 320 l/min | 86 l/min |
| SCR-4/10APM | 4 kW | 510 l/min | 128 l/min |
| SCR-5,5/10APM — this machine | 5.5 kW | 696 l/min | 127 l/min |
All three outputs share the 650 × 600 × 860 mm enclosure, the weight of 180 kg and the noise level of 65 dB(A) — they differ only in air delivered and energy drawn. The last column shows how many litres you get from each kilowatt of input.



How it differs from its neighbours
Against the SCR-4/10APM that is 186 l/min more for 37 % more power. It pays off when demand consistently exceeds five hundred litres — otherwise the 5.5 kW will run at part load and you will have paid for reserve you never use.
What is inside
Permanent magnet motor
The oil circuit cools the airend and the motor alike. No extra fan, no bearings to grease — on a machine giving 696 l/min that is one worry fewer.
Direct 1:1 drive
Clean power transmission with no maintenance. On a machine meant to run daily, what matters most is what does not need checking.
INOVANCE frequency inverter
A conventional compressor wastes energy idling. This one, at 696 l/min, runs only as hard as the workshop is actually drawing.
Low-speed screw airend
A modern rotor profile keeps efficiency up even at lower speeds. That is how a 5.5 kW machine manages 696 litres a minute without unnecessary noise.
IT7000 touchscreen controller
Setting the pressure precisely means not driving the pipework to ten bar when six will do. Every unnecessary bar costs roughly 7 % of consumption.
Where the machine fits
The ventilation figure of 1,600 m³/h is the same for all three, but the 5.5 kW uses it up fastest — in a small closed room the temperature will climb and the machine will shut down sooner than you expect. The noise level is 65 dB(A), the level of ordinary conversation.

Equipment
An in-house low-speed screw airend, a permanent magnet motor cooled by oil straight from the airend, and a direct 1:1 drive with no belts. A cooler, a combined valve and three filters complete the package.
- permanent magnet motor above IE4 class, cooled by oil from the screw airend
- direct 1:1 drive — no V-belts, no gearbox, no flexible coupling
- INOVANCE frequency inverter with vector control, torque from 0.1 Hz
- in-house low-speed screw airend with a modern rotor profile
- IT7000 touchscreen controller with a 7" display, weekly schedule and fault log
- automatic restart after a power cut and detailed machine status monitoring
- a backlit front panel signalling the machine state across the whole workshop
- air, oil and separator filters, combined intake valve
- extended 5-year warranty with no running-hour limit and no service contracts
A receiver of at least 200 l suits this size — you will find one in the air receivers. The ready-made package with a dryer is the SCR-5,5/10APM-200D, the filtered version the SCR-5,5/10APM-200FF. An overview of the range is in the SCR-APM Mini range.
All three receiver-less machines share the same enclosure and weight. So you choose purely on demand — floor space will not decide it.
