The Danfoss SC range of R134a compressors are semi-hermetic units designed for low, medium and high back pressure applications in commercial refrigeration systems. Catering businesses, restaurants and pubs rely on these compressors to maintain reliable cooling in display cabinets, prep tables and walk-in chillers. Available in multiple voltage and frequency options (115V 60Hz and 220-240V 50Hz/60Hz), these units offer flexibility for different UK and international installations.

When selecting an SC R134a compressor, consider the back pressure classification your application requires—LBP, MBP or HBP—as this determines operating temperature range and efficiency. Build quality and thermal overload protection are essential for continuous commercial operation, particularly in busy kitchen environments. Proper installation also requires compatible starting devices and relays alongside suitable compressor capacitors to ensure safe motor starting.

SC R134a compressors are widely used across the catering sector for systems requiring moderate cooling capacity. If your business operates higher-capacity refrigeration demands, the alternative SC R404A/R507 range may offer greater output for your requirements.
