Hydrocarbons are gaining ground as a natural refrigerant alternative in applications like supermarket refrigeration and chillers. Danfoss BOCK®’s hydrocarbon compressors are based on the HG well-known platform, and offer long-term reliability and safety for system manufacturers, users, and investors.
Our specialized HC compressors come with safety modifications and are optimized for hydrocarbon use. However, please note that only trained experts should operate them, adhering to safety measures and an agreement on hydrocarbons as a refrigerant (BOCK Art. No. 09996).

The HC compressor program encompasses 7 model sizes with 25 capacity stages from 5.4 to 281.3 m³/h (50 Hz). They are optimized for all hydrocarbon requirements and varies from the standard HG-series:
- Oil sump heater (necessary)
- Thermal protection thermostat (recommended)
- Special oil charge
- Durable driving gear for demanding applications with hydrocarbons
- Electronic motor protection
- INT69 G enclosed for installation in the switch cabinet
