Becker SV8.130/1 1.25kW Side Channel Blower
The Becker SV8.130/1 is a compact single-stage side channel blower providing 120 m³/h nominal airflow from a 1.25kW motor.
At 50 Hz, maximum relative vacuum is -170 mbar and maximum positive pressure is +165 mbar. Its closely balanced vacuum and pressure capabilities make the SV8.130/1 suitable for machinery requiring a moderate continuous airflow on either suction or blowing duty.
The regenerative side channel principle provides oil-free process air without using rubbing vanes as compression elements, making the blower suitable for continuous industrial air-handling applications.

120 m³/h for Vacuum and Pressure Duties
The Becker SV8.130/1 provides 120 m³/h nominal airflow from a 1.25kW motor, giving it a useful combination of compact motor power and continuous process-air capacity.
Its maximum relative vacuum of -170 mbar is closely matched by a maximum positive pressure of +165 mbar. Rather than being strongly biased towards either suction or pressure operation, this configuration offers a balanced performance envelope for industrial machinery that may require either type of duty.
Air entering the blower is accelerated by the rotating impeller and carried around the side channel. Repeated transfer of energy between the impeller and the air progressively creates the required pressure differential before the air reaches the outlet.
Because the impeller does not need to make rubbing contact with the housing, there are no carbon vanes within the compression mechanism. Lubricating oil is also unnecessary in the process-air chamber, allowing the SV8.130/1 to provide clean, oil-free airflow.
The nominal 120 m³/h capacity should be considered together with the resistance of the complete installation. Filters, pipework, bends, valves and process equipment influence the actual airflow available at the operating vacuum or pressure.

SV8.130/1 Performance and Design
120 m³/h Airflow
Provides a practical continuous air volume for smaller and medium industrial process systems and machinery.
-170 mbar Vacuum
Provides useful suction capability for handling, extraction and other industrial vacuum duties.
+165 mbar Pressure
Closely balanced with the vacuum performance for positive-pressure process-air applications.
1.25kW Motor
Provides the drive power for this 120 m³/h single-stage SV8 blower configuration.
Oil-Free Process Air
The side channel compression chamber does not require lubricating oil in the process-air stream.
Non-Contact Compression
The impeller generates airflow regeneratively without relying upon rubbing vanes or contacting compression elements.
Industrial Uses for the SV8.130/1
The balanced vacuum and pressure characteristics of the SV8.130/1 allow it to be considered for a broad range of machinery requiring moderate continuous airflow on either the inlet or discharge side.
› Vacuum lifting and handling
› Packaging machinery
› Printing and paper equipment
› Sheet transport systems
› Pneumatic transport
› Drying and cooling
› Aeration applications
› General industrial process air
Becker SV8.130/1 Supply and Replacement
Vacuum Pumps UK can assist with SV8.130/1 requirements for existing machinery, replacement installations and new industrial vacuum or pressure applications.
When replacing an installed blower, details from both the blower and motor nameplates help us establish the configuration originally fitted. Photographs and information about the machine or process can also be useful where an older installation has been modified during its working life.
For a new duty, the required 120 m³/h nominal capacity should be assessed together with the intended working vacuum or pressure and the resistance created by the complete system.
Becker SV8.130/1 Accessories
Suitable accessories help protect the SV8.130/1, regulate its operating differential and connect the blower correctly to the surrounding machinery or process system.
Inlet Filtration
Filter housings and elements help prevent airborne contamination entering the side channel blower.
Vacuum Relief
Vacuum relief valves can limit excessive suction differential where system restriction increases.
Pressure Relief
Pressure relief equipment can protect the blower when operating on positive-pressure duty.
Installation Components
Silencers, non-return valves, flexible connections and other components can be selected for the installation.
Becker SV8.130/1 Service, Repair and Spare Parts
Although the SV8.130/1 uses non-contact side channel compression, reliable operation still depends upon the condition of the bearings, motor, filtration and connected air system. Blocked filters or increased pipework resistance can reduce airflow and increase operating temperature.
Vacuum Pumps UK can assist with inspection, fault diagnosis, servicing and repair requirements for Becker side channel blowers.
Blower Service
Technical support for Becker SV blower maintenance and operating performance issues.
Blower Repair
Workshop inspection and repair assessment for noisy, damaged or under-performing blowers.
Spare Parts
Replacement filters and Becker spare parts are available through our sister company VacAir Superstore.
