Code: SF-5-5-KSPProduct detailed description
WALTER SF 5,5 KSP screw compressor with inverter in the smallest housing of the series
SF 5,5 KSP is the smallest machine in the SF KSP series. At 8 bar it delivers 0.42–0.95 m³/min, at 10 bar 0.36–0.8 and at 13 bar 0.36–0.64 m³/min, depending on how much air you are currently drawing.
The housing with a footprint of 960 × 680 mm and a weight of 227 kg is shared with the SF 7,5 KSP. Oil is separated by a screw-type separator, which is easy to service.

- Single-stage screw block · direct drive 1:1 · IE4 motor (IE5 optional) with inverter · screw-type oil separator
- Three pressures: 8, 10 and 13 bar
- Housing 960 × 680 × 1,030 mm shared with SF 7,5 KSP, weight 227 kg
- G ¾″ connection, noise level 60 dB(A)
- Power supply 400 V / 3 / 50 Hz, WALTER CONTROLLER control unit


Who it suits
For a small operation where air consumption fluctuates during the day. The inverter adjusts output to demand and, with variable consumption, saves up to 35% energy compared to a machine with constant output.
When to choose a different model
Need more air
SF 7,5 KSP is in the same housing and delivers up to 1.15 m³/min at 8 bar.
Want a tank
The machine can optionally be equipped with an air receiver and/or a dryer. A ready-made assembly with a 500 l air tank is offered by SFTG 5,5/500 KSP.
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 oil separator does the SF 5,5 KSP have?
- A spin-on separator, which is easy to maintain. A submersible separator with a long service life is featured on models from 11 kW upwards.
- Can you get a set with a dryer for it?
- Yes, ready-made sets are available in the SFTG KSP range. With a 300 l air tank and dryer, it is the SFTG 5,5/300 KSP COMBO.
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’s tip
A small machine should be selected based on peak demand, not on diameter. Add up how much air the devices started at the same time consume, and compare it with 0.95 m³/min at 8 bar.
