Danfoss EKA Communication Module – LON RS485
The Danfoss EKA Communication Module provides LON RS485 data communication for compatible Danfoss electronic refrigeration controllers, allowing supported controllers to communicate as part of a refrigeration control and monitoring system.
LON RS485 EKA 175 EKA 179A Data Communication Electronic Controls📡 Communication for Danfoss Refrigeration Controllers
The Danfoss EKA Communication Module is an electronic control accessory designed to add LON RS485 data communication to compatible Danfoss refrigeration controllers.
Once installed in a compatible controller, the communication module enables the controller to participate in supported Danfoss refrigeration communication and monitoring systems.
Although both products provide LON RS485 communication, they are designed for different Danfoss controller families. Always select the module according to the controller model.

① Check Controller Model
Identify the exact Danfoss controller before selecting the communication module.② For AK-CC 450 / 550
Existing compatible installations may use EKA 175 – 084B8579.③ For EKC 202 / 204
Use the applicable EKA 179A – 084B8565 communication module.④ Confirm Communication
Verify that your system requires LON RS485 rather than another communication protocol before ordering.Send us a photo of the existing Danfoss controller label and communication-module part number. This allows the controller family, communication protocol and appropriate replacement option to be checked before selection.
