The SV 500/40 compressor is a highlight of the J.A. Becker & Söhne top-tier lifting technology and compressor portfolio. This two-stage, piston-type air compressor is excellently suited for industrial applications requiring high-pressure air, especially in the range up to a maximum operating pressure of 40 bar. The unit is not a „mass-produced item,” but a precisely engineered, high-performance solution that guarantees a long service life and reliable operation.
During the design of the SV 500/40 compressor, efficiency, reliability, and ease of maintenance were the central focus.
No „Mass-Produced Item” Solution: This model offers unique engineering solutions, unlike average, mass-produced compressors, ensuring the fulfillment of special industrial requirements.
Highly Efficient Cooling: The advanced cooling system ensures the optimal operating temperature, which is critical during high-pressure compression. This minimizes thermal stress, increases the service life of components, and improves energy efficiency.
Fully Automatic Draining (Condensate Removal): The built-in, fully automatic condensate drain system ensures the system always remains dry, preventing corrosion and degradation of compressed air quality. This reduces the need for manual intervention.
Long Maintenance Intervals: As a result of the robust construction and quality components, maintenance intervals have been significantly extended, reducing downtime and operating costs.
The performance and parameters of the SV 500/40 compressor are detailed in the table below:
| Parameter | Value | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Volume flow | 500 l/min | Equivalent to 30.0 m³/h |
| Maximum Operating Pressure | max. 40 bar | For high-pressure applications |
| Compression Stages / Cylinder | 2 / 2 | Two-stage compression |
| Electric Motor Power | 9 kW | Powerful Drive |
The SV 500/40 is a two-stage, two-cylinder compressor that performs the compression process in two steps to achieve maximum efficiency and pressure.
Power:
Volumetric flow rate: 500 liters per minute (l/min). This capacity ensures a continuous and high-volume supply of compressed air.
Maximum Pressure: 40 bar. This parameter makes the compressor suitable for special processes, such as nitrogen generation or the handling of other high-pressure gases.
Drive and Construction:
Motor: A 9 kW electric motor provides the necessary driving force.
Cylinder arrangement: Two-stage, with two cylinders. The first stage pre-compresses the air, and then the second stage achieves the desired pressure level of 40 bar.
The SV 500/40 compressor can be excellently integrated into systems where compressed air quality and reliability are paramount. Although the raw data points to high-pressure air, such equipment is often applicable for compressing special gases (e.g., nitrogen), widening its scope of use.
The unit is considered a first-class product in every respect, resulting from precise German engineering work. The robust design guarantees long-term, trouble-free operation even in the most demanding industrial environments.
