The J.A. Becker & Söhne SV 1100/60 NG model is a top-category, three-stage natural gas compressor designed for the highest efficiency and reliability. This equipment offers an ideal solution for industrial applications requiring high-precision, reliable gas compression, especially for natural gas (NG). Capable of reaching an operating pressure of 40 bar, the unit delivers outstanding volumetric flow performance while maintaining low maintenance requirements and a long service life.
The SV 1100/60 NG compressor is not a „mass-produced product”; it represents the engineering precision of J.A. Becker & Söhne, manifested in solutions tailored to user requirements.
Outstandingly Efficient Cooling: The advanced cooling system of the unit ensures optimal dissipation of heat generated during the compression process. This not only helps stabilize the gas temperature but also significantly contributes to increasing the service life of the compressor components and maximizing energy efficiency.
Fully Automatic Discharge: The fully automated pressure release function simplifies operation and increases safety. This system ensures that the compressor safely and automatically relieves pressure to appropriate levels during every shutdown or pressure fluctuation.
Long Maintenance Cycles: As a result of the robust construction and high-quality components, maintenance intervals have been significantly extended. This reduces downtime and optimizes operating costs.
High-Performance Electric Drive: The 24 kW electric motor guarantees stable and reliable performance at the specified speed.
The performance and parameters of the SV 1100/60 NG compressor are detailed in the table below, highlighting the key specifications:

The three-stage design is crucial for achieving high pressures and effectively managing heat generation. Each stage elevates the gas to the next pressure level, while intermediate coolers ensure that the gas temperature does not exceed permissible limits. This sequential compression ensures maximum efficiency and minimizes mechanical stress.
The flexibility of the inlet pressure (from 0.02 bar to 0.3 bar) allows the equipment to be used in a wide range of natural gas supply systems with different source pressures. The 60 bar maximum pressure capability provides a safety margin above the nominal operating pressure of 40 bar.
The 24 kW electric motor operates at 1500 revolutions/minute, creating an ideal balance regarding performance, efficiency, and noise level. The mechanical connection between the motor and the compressor is optimized for minimal loss.
The SV 1100/60 NG compressor is ideally suited for:
Natural Gas Grid Supply: Pressure boosting and injection into natural gas distribution networks.
Industrial Processes: Manufacturing processes that require a reliable, high-performance compressed natural gas source.
Automotive Stations: For high-capacity CNG (compressed natural gas) filling stations where fast and reliable refueling is essential.
J.A. Becker & Söhne products represent the quality of German engineering. The SV 1100/60 NG is considered a first-class product in all aspects, guaranteeing long-term, trouble-free operation. The robust design and carefully selected materials ensure the equipment's resistance to continuous load.
