Ownership: foundation/family-controlled (Bitten & Mads Clausen's Foundation)
Danfoss makes quick-disconnect couplings for data-center liquid cooling (UQD, UQDB blind-mate, and OCP ORV3 connectors), valve trains for hydronic balancing, and coolant hoses, and supplies Turbocor oil-free centrifugal compressors used in data-center chillers. The company is controlled by the Bitten & Mads Clausen's Foundation and the Clausen family; the Semikron Danfoss power-semiconductor business is a separate joint venture.
