Danfoss 060-214491 Pressure Control

The Danfoss 060-214491 involves the KP36 pressure control series, serving as a high-performance suction pressure switch designed for commercial refrigeration and HVAC automation systems. This auto reset pressure switch features a regulation range of 2 to 14 bar (30 to 200 psig) and a fixed differential of 0.7 to 4.0 bar, making it ideal for monitoring gaseous media and air. Engineered for high-reliability switching, the Danfoss KP-36 utilizes a SPDT contact system that manages heavy duty loads with minimal contact wear. It is the direct replacement for the legacy 060-213166 model, ensuring seamless retrofitting for existing installations. The unit incorporates 1/4 inch flare connections and provides an IP44 protection rating when mounted with a top cover. Its trip-free function ensures that the electrical contact cannot be maintained by manual override, prioritizing system safety and preventing compressor burnout in low-pressure conditions.

Key Benefits

• Direct Replacement Logic: Engineered as the specific upgrade for 060-213166, eliminating the need for piping modifications.
• Enhanced Contact System: Features a 16A SPDT switch capable of handling inductive loads without external relays in most configurations.
• Vibration Resistance: Designed to withstand the mechanical stress of HVAC compressor vibrations, preventing nuisance tripping.
• Precise Pressure Regulation: High-accuracy pressure bellows provide consistent setpoint stability over the life of the component.
• Versatile Media Compatibility: Rated for use with air and gaseous refrigerants, making it a staple for HVACR service technicians.

Common Questions

Can the Danfoss KP36 be used for high-pressure cut-out applications?
The KP36 is primarily optimized for low and medium pressure ranges (15-150#). For high-side discharge protection, a KP5 or KP15 series switch is typically recommended.

Does this model require a manual reset after a pressure drop?
No, the 060-214491 is an auto reset control, meaning the circuit restores automatically once the pressure rises above the differential setpoint.

Is the KP-36 compatible with R-410A systems?
Yes, the bellows construction is compatible with standard non-corrosive refrigerants, though the pressure range must be verified against the specific R-410A suction operating parameters.
