Expanded production in Mexico brings critical oil-free products closer to customers while supporting quality, speed and supply chain confidence.

With the goal of strengthening supply chains and shortening delivery times to North American customers, Danfoss Climate Solutions is continuing to invest in regional production. The company has launched a new production line at its factory in Monterrey, Mexico, to assemble oil-free check (OFC) valves, used in conjunction with Danfoss Turbocor^® oil-free compressors. This is another step toward regionalizing supply chains, a key Danfoss goal in the coming years.

Since the opening of the expanded Monterrey factory a year ago, Danfoss has taken advantage of the doubled capacity to launch production of high-demand products such as scroll compressors, BOCK^® compressors, sensors and microchannel heat exchangers. As a result, the company is able to meet increased demand and support its OEM (original equipment manufacturer) customers in strengthening their supply chains.

Assembling the OFC valves in North America will increase supply chain resiliency for North America OEM customers that use Turbocor compressors in their chillers and heat pumps. Customers can expect the same high level of quality, coupled with reduced lead times and gradual USMCA approval. Following the 2025 extension of the product range, production will include many new models to fit customers’ different application requirements. Ultimately, 12 models will be produced in Monterrey, available in 3 1/8′ and 4 1/8′ steel or solder flange options, with or without ball valves, in regular or compact sizes.

The demand for oil-free solutions has increased in recent years, particularly in the data center industry, as customers seek to reduce energy consumption and carbon emissions. By eliminating oil in their design, Turbocor compressors provide a low-carbon and exceptionally reliable cooling option for commercial air conditioning and heat pump applications, enabling commercial buildings such as office buildings, hotels, hospitals, airports and data centers to meet decarbonization and energy efficiency goals. The OFC valve, which includes both a ball valve style shut-off and a check valve, enhances the performance of Turbocor-based applications by reducing discharge pressure drop while increasing capacity and efficiency. Additional features include an integrated stop function, damped check valve function, integrated diffuser elbow and integrated staging port.

“The launch of OFC valve production in Monterrey is a strategic investment in North America,” said Vikas Anand, vice president of Danfoss Climate Solutions in North America. “Our goal is to become our customers’ preferred technology partner while supporting them in their sustainability goals. We are looking forward to creating greater value for our customers by improving our product delivery and strengthening their supply chains.”
