The later Norcold DE0061 units use a Danfoss compressor from what I understand.
I'm not sure when Norcold switched to the Danfoss systems, but the last DE0061 I sold had it. I'll check with my distributor and see if there are other Norcold models that use it. I can't imagine why Norcold took so long to switch. They lost a lot of their customer base with the Japanese compressors and they have been the pits ever since the changeover to R134a.
Edit: I just looked at West Marine's website and the DE-0041 description says it senses between 12 and 24V. That would be the Danfoss system also. The Norcold Japanese compressor units ran on aprox 23VAC. So I'm thinking that Norcold has switched over with all of their new units.
