WALTER SFTG 5,5/270 KSP Screw Compressor input power 5.5 kW, air delivery 0.42–0.95 m³/min at 8 bar, air tank 270 l, inverter, 7-year warranty
Code: SFTG-5-5/270-KSPProduct detailed description
WALTER SFTG 5,5/270 KSP screw compressor with the smallest footprint in the range
The SFTG 5,5/270 KSP has the smallest footprint in the entire SFTG KSP range: the compressor with inverter is mounted on a 270 l air tank, and the whole assembly measures 1,280 × 650 × 1,630 mm.
At 8 bar it delivers up to 0.95 m³/min, at 10 bar up to 0.8 m³/min and at 13 bar up to 0.64 m³/min. The SFTG 7,5/270 KSP has the same casing and weight of 280 kg, delivering 21% more air at 8 bar.
Configuration of this machine
- Direct drive 1:1 · IE4 magnetic motor (IE5 optional) · inverter
- Three pressures: 8, 10 and 13 bar
- 270 l air tank, assembly 1,280 × 650 × 1,630 mm, weight 280 kg
- G ¾″ connection, noise level 60 dB(A), screw-type oil separator
- Power supply 400 V / 3 / 50 Hz, WALTER CONTROLLER control unit



Who it suits
For a smaller workshop or operation where space is limited and air consumption varies throughout the day. The inverter adjusts the speed to demand, so the machine doesn't run at full capacity during lower demand. The assembly width is only 650 mm, the smallest in the entire range.
When to choose a different model
Belt drive
The SKTG 5,5/270 SP has the same tank but belt drive and fixed speed, weighs 300 kg and delivers 0.85 m³/min at 8 bar.
Larger air supply
The SFTG 5,5/300 KSP has a 300 l air tank. The assembly is 403 mm longer and 46 kg heavier.
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 does it differ from the standalone SF 5,5 KSP?
- The machine with the same air delivery but without tank is the SF 5,5 KSP. It weighs 227 kg and has a footprint of 960 × 680 mm; the assembly with the tank is 53 kg heavier.
- How much space does the assembly take up?
- The footprint is 1,280 × 650 mm, height 1,630 mm. Leave free space around the assembly for cooling air intake and for servicing.
The machine is covered by a 7-year warranty on the whole machine. Warranty conditions, maintenance and a comparison of all 14 models can be found in the category Screw compressors WALTER SFTG KSP: with inverter on the air receiver.
Ventilek advises
The assembly is 1,630 mm high, so it is worth measuring the height of the doorway and the plant room before installation.
