SKL 1200 C – screw compressor in the chassis
High throughput for silo trailers, chassis installation
The SKL 1200 C is designed for silo vehicles that regularly unload large quantities of bulk goods. It sits in the chassis of the tractor unit and is driven directly via the cardan shaft.
With up to 1,170 m³/h at a constant 2.5 bar (g), it shortens unloading time, oil-free and therefore gentle on the goods.
Flow rate
619 to 1,170 m³/h
Operating pressure
2.5 bar (g)
Power requirement
30 to 55.5 kW
Weight
115 kg
Why the SKL 1200 C?
The rotor geometry is designed for high energy efficiency at high flow rates. The design is optimised for the limited space in the chassis, without compromising on performance or accessibility.
- Oil-free screw compressor for chassis installation, direct drive via cardan shaft
- Fits 6×2 and 6×4 tractor units
- Optimum cardan shaft angle
- Clockwise and anticlockwise rotation possible
- Two suction connections
- Operating pressure 2.5 bar (g) at all speeds
- External oil cooler as an option
- Low weight, oil capacity approx. 5 litres

Frequently asked questions
Why oil-free?
With food, plastic granules or chemicals, no oil may get into the goods being transported. Oil-free compressors rule out this risk.
Will the SKL 1200 C fit my vehicle?
It is designed for 6×2 and 6×4 tractor units, with an optimised cardan shaft angle and two suction connections. We check the installation with you and the body builder.
Who supplies, installs and maintains it?
We do. As CVS representative, we supply compressors and vacuum pumps, advise on installation in the vehicle and take care of maintenance and repairs.
