Danfoss MLZ and MLM scroll compressor

The Danfoss MLZ / MLM scroll compressor family is designed for medium-temperature refrigeration applications, offering nominal cooling capacities from 1 to 6 tons. These compressors are built for commercial and light‐commercial systems, fitting environments that demand reliability and efficiency.

Thanks to their optimized scroll design and high-efficiency motors, MLZ & MLM compressors deliver strong performance with reduced energy usage. They minimize friction, lower noise, and improve system pressure ratios, helping reduce operating costs over time.

A key feature is their refrigerant flexibility: MLZ units support a broad range of refrigerants (such as R22, R134a, R404A, R448A, R449A, R452A, R407A/F, R513A), while MLM is more limited, typically R22. This gives system designers more options for regulatory compliance and performance tuning.

Installation is made versatile with options for Brazed and Rotolock connections, internal thermal protection, and design considerations for compactness so you save space in equipment enclosures. With reliable components and proven Danfoss engineering, these compressors are strong choices for commercial refrigeration systems.
