Code: SF-185-KSPProduct detailed description
Screw compressor WALTER SF 185 KSP with DN 65 connection and weight of 4,000 kg
From SF 185 KSP upwards, machines in the SF KSP range weigh 4,000 kg or more and their noise level is at least 77 dB(A).
At 8 bar it delivers 11.6–29 m³/min, at 10 bar 11.2–28 and at 13 bar 9.28–23.2 m³/min. The 3,957 × 2,189 × 2,260 mm housing is not shared with any other model in the range.
Configuration of this machine
- Single-stage screw airend · direct drive 1:1 · IE4 motor (IE5 optional) with inverter · submerged oil separator
- Three pressures: 8, 10 and 13 bar
- Own housing 3,957 × 2,189 × 2,260 mm, weight 4,000 kg
- DN 65 connection, noise level 77 dB(A)
- Power supply 400 V / 3 / 50 Hz, WALTER CONTROLLER control unit


Who it suits
For large-scale production with variable demand that needs more air than SF 160 KSP. At 10 bar the machine operates in the range of 11.2–28 m³/min.
When to choose a different model
Same machine without inverter
If demand does not fluctuate, the SK 185 KSP with fixed speed is sufficient. At 8 bar it delivers 29 m³/min, the same as the maximum air delivery of SF 185 KSP.
Two-stage compression
SF 185 DSP delivers up to 36.6 m³/min at 8 bar, 26% more, and has a DN 100 connection.
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
- How much does the SF 185 KSP weigh?
- 4,000 kg, i.e. 700 kg more than the SF 160 KSP.
- Can the SF 185 KSP be equipped with a tank and dryer?
- No, this option only applies to models up to 15 kW. The SF 185 KSP is a standalone machine, so you need to size the air tank and dryer separately.
The machine comes with a 7-year warranty covering the entire machine. Warranty terms, maintenance, and a comparison of all 19 models can be found in the category Screw compressors WALTER SF KSP: inverter and direct drive.
Ventilek advises
A machine with an inverter pays off where consumption fluctuates. If it will run almost continuously, compare its air delivery with a two-stage model.
