Danfoss 060-214591 Pressure Switch
The Danfoss 060-214591 (Type KP36) is a heavy-duty single-pole double-throw (SPDT) pressure switch designed for regulation, monitoring, and alarm systems in industrial and HVACR applications. Engineered for compatibility with gaseous media and air, this unit features a wide operating pressure range of 15 to 150 PSI (1.0 to 10.5 bar) with a 10 PSI fixed differential. This switch is a direct technical equivalent to models 060-214566 and 060-213366, allowing for a seamless drop-in replacement in existing control panels or compressor assemblies.
Built for durability in high-demand environments, the Danfoss KP36 060-214591 utilizes snap-action electrical contacts to minimize contact chatter, bounce, and mechanical wear, ensuring a stable signal even under vibration. The manual reset function serves as a critical safety limiter, requiring technician intervention once the high-pressure setpoint is reached. Connection is standard via a 1/4" NPT pressure port, and the front-facing electrical terminals facilitate rapid wiring in tight enclosures. For contractors managing compressor protection or industrial pressure control, this dual-scale switch provides clear visibility for precise field calibration without specialized tools.
Key Benefits:- Versatile Media Compatibility: Optimized for air, steam, and various gaseous media in industrial HVACR configurations.
- Enhanced Safety Logic: Integrated manual reset provides positive lockout for high-limit protection and system troubleshooting.
- Rugged Contact Design: SPDT snap-action contacts support both alternating and direct current, providing high-reliability switching for single-phase AC motors up to 2 kW.
- Simplified Installation: Standard 1/4" NPT connection and NPSM 1/2-14 swivel cable connector for efficient field integration.
- Accurate Setpoint Visibility: High-contrast dual-scale display allows for rapid verification of the 15-150 PSI regulation range.
- Can the differential be adjusted on this model? No, the 060-214591 features a 10 PSI fixed differential to ensure consistent system sequencing; for adjustable differential options, alternative KP36 variants should be considered.
- Is this switch suitable for outdoor use? The standard enclosure is rated IP30 (NEMA 1), suitable for indoor or panel-protected environments; IP55 covers are available separately for harsher exposures.
- How do I perform a system test? The unit includes a manual trip function, allowing technicians to test the electrical circuit and contact position without altering system pressure.
