BOCK is one of the world’s technology and innovation leaders in the development of environmentally friendly, economical solutions in the field of refrigeration and air conditioning technology, including heat pumps and heat recovery – with one of the world’s largest portfolios of compressors for natural refrigerants such as CO2 (R744), hydrocarbons and other low-GWP refrigerants.
It is more than obvious that the world climate is constantly changing. Our planet is getting hotter and hotter and in our digital world we can observe these effects every day. Already today, 15% of the world’s electricity consumption is used for refrigeration and air conditioning. The way we deal with cold will therefore become increasingly important.
Bock has been developing compressors for the natural refrigerant CO2 (R744) since 1993. Their compressor range for hydrocarbons (HC) has the best reputation worldwide. And in the synthetic refrigerant sector, all their expertise is invested in the further development of compressors with low-GWP refrigerants, which is why we can confidently say: “Think green, choose blue”.
Southern Sales & Services are the UK’s largest distributor of Bock compressors, so if you have an enquiry that you think that we can help with, then please do not hesitate to contact us by phone or through our online quick contact form at the bottom of the page.
The Bock HG series is based on a classic design with state of the art suction gas-cooled, compressor technology. Smooth running, service-friendliness, high performance and reliability are the distinguishing features of these modern compressors.
Bock semi-hermetic compressors have been completely optimised to achieve efficiency gains. The new models feature an “e” indicating greater efficiency, mechanical improvement, compact design and user-friendly connections.

The series comes in seven model sizes with 25 capacity stages: With the new LG range (LG = Low GWP), which has been specially designed for use with low-GWP HFO refrigerants, the refrigeration and air-conditioning specialist Bock will in future offer a semi-hermetic compressor portfolio with suitable compressor technology for all synthetic refrigerants. This includes both the common HFC fluids and the new HFO low-GWP fluids with a GWP value of less than 150.
The HG – LG model series consists of state-of-the-art classical suction gas-cooled compressor technology.
Those compressors are efficiency optimised models.
By technical optimisations the motor-efficiency, gas flow and efficiency of the valve system are improved.

The new UL-HGe series is a stand-alone series that combines all the advantages of the standard semi-hermetic HGe series with the specific UL requirements. UL stands for the U.S. company “Underwriters Laboratories (UL)”. It tests and certifies products about their safety.
UL standards encompass UL’s safety research and scientific expertise. In addition to the UL certification, the new BOCK compressor series is very energy-efficient (e-marking in the type code), robust and compact.
The BOCK UL-HGe compressors are suitable for a wide range of applications using chlorine-free HFC refrigerants. The usual running comfort, easy maintenance, reliability, and the typical Bock quality standards also characterise this compressor series.
The BOCK configuration tool VAP offers you the possibility to find the right compressor and cooling solution according to your project

The HA-system – the best solution for deep-freezing! The semi-hermetic HA series from BOCK was specially developed for low temperature cooling and prevents excessively high final displacement temperatures. The drive motor and cylinder heads of this reciprocating compressor are air-cooled via a compact ventilation unit. The refrigerant gas is sucked in and condensed directly by the compressor.

The drive motor and cylinder heads of this reciprocating compressor are air-cooled via a compact ventilation unit. The refrigerant gas is sucked in and condensed directly by the compressor.
This reduces the compressed gas temperature and thus expands the range of application while at the same time increasing capacity. At the same time, the compressor is physically separated from the compressor, with advantages particularly in the case of motor damage.

Bock is the first European manufacturer to offer semi-hermetic compressors certified according to ATEX machine category 2 (zone 1+2). In 2014, Bock also included compressors certified according to ATEX machine category 3 (zone 2) in its program. Within the European Union, electrical and mechanical machinery operated in explosive atmospheres must comply with the so-called ATEX (ATmospheres EXplosibles) conditions. All ATEX compressors are also approved for operation with the current hydrocarbons. The models in the HG Series are the basic compressors for ATEX versions.

Suction gas cooled aluminium reciprocating compressors from BOCK, based on the classic HG compressor series in grey cast iron, are specially designed for mobile refrigeration applications due to their lightweight construction.
They are approx. 40% lighter and have a reduced overall height, making them particularly suitable for roof mounting on vehicles. Together with the robust K-design valve plate, which was specially developed for bus air conditioning, they are the first choice for electric applications. With the special oil management, the mobile aluminium compressors are also suitable for large inclination angles.

Based on the HG standard compressors with their outstanding advantages and features, versions with 2-pole drive motor are available with up to 70% increased cooling capacity with the same external dimensions. This is made possible by doubling the speed at the same mains frequency. Together with the robust and reliable BOCK K valve plate, this results in the optimal solution for bus air conditioning and many other mobile applications.

Based on the HG series, BOCK has developed a two-stage compressor series for extended use in low temperature cooling. The HGZ compressor series provides a 6-cylinder compressor which is currently available in two versions. The HGZ compressor is alternatively available with a medium-pressure mixing line as an accessory or as an already mounted version.
