DVP CC140 Dry-Running Rotary Vane Pressure Pump
The DVP CC140 is the largest dry-running rotary vane pressure pump (compressor) in the DVP CC series, designed for high-capacity applications requiring continuous, 100% oil-free compressed air delivery.
Boasting a powerful volume displacement of 130 m³/h at 50Hz (150 m³/h / 88.3 CFM at 60Hz) and sustained working overpressure up to 1.3 bar (1.2 bar at 60Hz), the CC140 combines severe-duty mechanical construction with optimised thermal management and quiet operation.

DVP CC140 Overview
The DVP CC140 dry rotary vane compressor is designed to supply high air volumes without oil contamination, the pump utilises advanced internal air passage engineering so energy consumption stays linear and predictable from ambient atmospheric pressure up to maximum final overpressure.
Cooling performance is vital in higher-volume dry compressors. The CC140 features a high-capacity radial fan installed between the pump casing and the electric drive motor. This fan constantly draws fresh ambient air directly across the cooling fins of the rotor chamber, maintaining low operating temperatures and extending the working life of the high-durability graphite vanes.
Equipped with an integrated inlet air filter element, the CC140 guards against dust and airborne particulate ingress. The complete assembly is enclosed within a robust acoustic cowl, ensuring low noise levels suitable for manufacturing floors and plant rooms.
Target Applications
The high volumetric output of the DVP CC140 makes it ideal for large-scale industrial installations requiring continuous oil-free positive pressure air up to 1.3 bar:
Wastewater Purification & Aeration: Municipal aeration basins, large-scale biological treatment, and heavy effluent sparging
Environmental Engineering: Landfill gas extraction & displacement, soil aeration, and large fluidisation beds
Solar Panel & Glass Manufacturing: Large-format glass flotation tables, high-volume air knives, and sheet drying lines
High-Speed Printing & Converting: Multi-station press sheet floating, heavy card folder air, and continuous feeder blast air
Pneumatic Bulk Conveying: High-volume lean-phase transfer of plastic powders, food products, and dry chemicals
Automated Packaging Plants: Centralised bag inflation, high-flow air clearing, and product ejector nozzles
Fluidisation & Chemical Agitation: Large liquid tank mixing, hopper fluidization, and anti-settling air systems
Centralised Plant Air Systems: Main oil-free low-pressure air supply for multi-machine production bays
Why Choose the DVP CC140?
As the highest-capacity unit in the CC range, the CC140 provides 130–150 m³/h of displacement, allowing plant managers to replace multiple smaller units with a single, highly reliable dry compressor. Its rugged cast-iron construction and thermal management system ensure zero performance loss during round-the-clock operations.
Downtime is kept to an absolute minimum thanks to the front access maintenance grid. Plant engineers can quickly remove the front panel to measure graphite vane wear and fit new vanes without dismantling the main outer casing or motor couplings.
Vacuum Pumps UK supports all CC140 installations with expert sizing advice, complete UK stock of genuine DVP spare parts, system accessories, and full workshop repair services.
Key Technical Features
Flat Power Consumption
Refined suction and discharge channels keep power draw stable across the entire pressure range, maximising energy efficiency.
Mid-Mounted Cooling Fan
High-efficiency fan situated between pump housing and motor drives high-velocity cooling air across cylinder surfaces.
Rapid Vane Service Grid
Front-accessible inspection panel allows quick vane replacement without removing the main fan housing or acoustic cowl.
Protective Inlet Filter
Integrated heavy-duty air filter screens out fine dust particles, safeguarding precision-machined rotor slots and stator walls.
Comparing DVP CC100 vs DVP CC140
Choosing between the CC100 and the flagship CC140 comes down to total air volume demand and system capacity headroom:
- DVP CC100: Provides 100 m³/h (50Hz) / 115 m³/h (60Hz) with maximum continuous overpressure up to 1.3 bar (50Hz). Driven by a 4.0 kW motor. Excellent for medium-to-large single machine operations.
- DVP CC140: Provides 130 m³/h (50Hz) / 150 m³/h (60Hz) with maximum continuous overpressure up to 1.3 bar (50Hz). Driven by a 5.5 kW motor. Ideal for heavy-duty plant processes requiring 30% higher volumetric air flow.
Our sales engineers can analyze your system duty cycle to ensure the correct model is selected for optimal performance.
