Secop

Secop is a hermetic refrigeration compressor manufacturer with more than 65 years of experience, formerly known as Danfoss Compressors. Secop produces AC hermetic compressors for light commercial refrigeration and DC variable-speed compressors for mobile cooling. Secop specializes in natural refrigerant compatibility including R290 propane and R600a isobutane. Products are available through wholesale refrigeration and HVAC channels including SupplyHouse.

Secop Product Lines

• SC-Series: AC hermetic compressors for light commercial refrigeration, 4 to 28 cc displacement, R134a and natural refrigerant models.
• BD-Series: DC variable-speed compressors for mobile cooling in vehicles, boats, and battery-powered equipment.
• S-Series: Commercial-grade hermetic compressors for medium commercial refrigeration.
• Electronic Control Units: Variable-speed motor controllers for BD-series compressors.
• Condensing Units: Pre-assembled condensing units for commercial refrigeration equipment.

Why Contractors Specify Secop

Secop is the direct successor to Danfoss hermetic compressors with compatible part numbering. SC-series covers both R134a and natural refrigerant R290 for current and transitioning refrigerant service needs.

How to Choose a Secop Product

Match refrigerant type, cooling capacity, displacement, and motor start configuration to the existing compressor. Use natural refrigerant-rated models only in systems designed for hydrocarbon refrigerants. Match voltage and frequency to the supply circuit.
