I. Positioning
The C-SBP series is Panasonic/Songyang's line of fully hermetic scroll compressors optimized for R410A refrigerant, covering two capacity levels: C-SBP170 and C-SBP185. The "P" in the model designation explicitly stands for R410A dedicated, built on a specialized platform engineered from the ground up for R410A's high-pressure characteristics. With a power range of 5–5.5 HP and a high-pressure dedicated architecture at its core, this series is widely used in industrial air conditioning, heat pump systems, and commercial refrigeration equipment.

III. Detailed Overview
Feature: The C-SBP series adopts a dedicated platform engineered from the ground up for R410A's high-pressure characteristics. R410A's operating pressure is approximately 60% higher than R22, imposing stricter requirements on compressor structural strength. The scroll wrap end-face seal clearance of the C-SBP series is precisely calculated to minimize leakage under high-pressure differentials. Motor windings use high-quality insulating materials to prevent corona discharge in high-voltage environments. Shell wall thickness and welding processes are correspondingly reinforced to withstand higher burst pressures.
Advantage: This series centers on a high-pressure dedicated architecture and dual-frequency high energy efficiency. The C-SBP170H38A achieves a COP of 2.99 at 50Hz and 3.04 at 60Hz. The cooling capacity range of 14.2 kW to 17.3 kW precisely matches the requirements of 5 HP-class commercial air conditioning systems. The 60.4 cm³ displacement combined with a compact structure provides distinct performance advantages among 5 HP-class scroll compressors.
Benefit: For industrial air conditioning and heat pump system manufacturers, the C-SBP series precisely matches the needs of 5 HP-class systems with 14.2 kW (50Hz) / 17.3 kW (60Hz) cooling capacity. For equipment manufacturers, choosing a dedicated platform means lower failure rates and reduced after-sales repair costs. For end users, the high efficiency of R410A systems and the reliability of the dedicated platform significantly reduce total lifecycle costs while ensuring reliable cooling and heating performance.
IV. Application Scenario Quick-Selection Guide
| Application Scenario | Recommended Model | HP | Key Advantage |
| R410A Industrial A/C | C-SBP170H38A | 5.0 | 14.2kW, COP 2.99 |
| R410A Heat Pump System | C-SBP170H38B | 5.0 | Different interface configuration |
| R410A Commercial A/C | C-SBP185H36A | 5.5 | Higher cooling capacity |
Selection Tip: For 5 HP, choose C-SBP170H38A/B or C-SBP170H36A/B; for 5.5 HP, choose C-SBP185H36A.
