WALTER SF 160 DSP Screw Compressor power input 160 kW, air delivery 13.2–33.3 m³/min at 8 bar, two-stage, IE5 motor, 7-year warranty
Code: SF-160-DSPProduct detailed description
Two-stage screw compressor WALTER SF 160 DSP with DN 100 connection
SF 160 DSP is the first model in the range in a 3,108 × 1,940 × 2,060 mm housing and with a DN 100 connection. At 8 bar it delivers up to 33.3 m³/min, at 10 bar 31 and at 13 bar 24.6 m³/min.
The single-stage SF 160 KSP delivers 25.2 m³/min at 8 bar, two-stage compression gives 32% more. This is the largest difference in output among models up to 185 kW.
Configuration of this machine
- Two-stage screw block · direct drive 1:1 · IE5 magnetic motor with inverter
- Three pressures: 8, 10 and 13 bar
- Own housing 3,108 × 1,940 × 2,060 mm, weight 4,250 kg
- Connection DN 100, noise level 76 dB(A)
- Power supply 400 V / 3 / 50 Hz, WALTER CONTROLLER control unit


Who it suits
For large-scale production with continuous operation, where the electricity savings will be significant. Noise level of 76 dB(A) requires placement in a plant room.
When to choose a different model
Lower output
SF 132 DSP is in a 2,656 × 1,698 × 1,800 mm housing and at 8 bar delivers up to 27.4 m³/min.
Higher output
SF 185 DSP has a longer housing (3,970 × 2,190 × 2,265 mm) and at 8 bar delivers up to 36.6 m³/min.
What the parameters imply — calculated values
The values are calculated from the maximum air delivery at 8 bar and serve for comparing models with each other, not as a guaranteed value.
Frequently asked questions
- What is the control range at 10 bar?
- 12.4–31 m³/min.
- Does the machine have the same connection as the SF 185 DSP?
- Yes, both have DN 100. They differ in the housing: 3,108 × 1,940 × 2,060 mm versus 3,970 × 2,190 × 2,265 mm.
The machine is covered by a 7-year warranty on the entire machine. Warranty terms, maintenance, and a comparison of all 13 models can be found in the category WALTER SF DSP screw compressors: two-stage compression.
Ventilek advises
From 160 kW, operation is what matters most for a two-stage machine: four thousand engine hours a year already show up on the electricity bills.
