Test and improve application performance—including CO₂
This Application Development Center is located at the Danfoss global headquarters in Nordborg, Denmark. The main goal of the Nordborg Application Development Center is to help you test new solutions and improve performance on your applications in a live environment. The placement of the ADC at the Danfoss headquarters gives you access to a wide variety of Danfoss product development teams, allowing for a high degree of cooperation during the testing period.
The 1,200m2 ADC includes a state-of-the-art heat pump and chiller test chamber with capacity up to 250 kW, capable of testing flammable A3 refrigerants. Additionally, it includes three fully automatic side-by-side psychrometric testing facilities with a capacity up to 25KW (7.1TR). This laboratory is specifically set up for experimental testing – also for CO2 applications.
Our heat pump test chamber allows customers to develop and test units with trending hydrocarbon refrigerants like Propane R290. Unique in our industry, this facility, combined with our expertise, offers key advantages: verifying application developments with customers, ensuring that energy efficiency targets are met, and confirming that units withstand harsh environmental conditions using the best Danfoss components.
This location is also home base for our Mobile CO2 Training Unit, which travels around the world to provide CO2 refrigerant training to installers, service technicians, and OEM engineers – you can learn more on the Mobile CO2 Training Unit page.
The Nordborg test facilities meet all generally known and accepted testing standards. On request, we can perform tests according to international and regional standards, and any other special requirements you might have. Additionally, we have the ability to test applications charged with flammable refrigerants. For a list of refrigerants and testing standards, please see our ADC FAQ.
At this ADC, we can test the following applications:
- Various types of residential air conditioners, including split systems, ducted split systems, and packaged systems
- Commercial and residential heat pumps
- Sanitary hot water heat pumps
- Transport refrigeration units
- Packs for supermarket, display cases, and ice banks
- Condensing units
- Commercial refrigeration equipment, such as liquid coolers, bottle coolers, automatic ice cube/flake ice machines, professional freezers, and refrigerators
In addition to our main Nordborg ADC, we also have our Smart Store ADC located nearby, right on campus. This ADC is a fully functional supermarket that demonstrates our solutions for cooling and heating technologies in action. You can learn more about it on our Smart Store ADC webpage.
