Danfoss 060-312166 Pressure Switch

The Danfoss 060-312166 is a professional-grade KPS 45 pressure switch engineered specifically for heavy-duty applications in marine and industrial environments where shock and vibration resistance are critical. This high-performance bellows-type switch features a regulation range of 4 to 40 bar (58 to 580 psi) with an adjustable mechanical differential ranging from 2.2 to 11 bar. Built with a robust gold-plated silver contact system (SPDT), it ensures reliable electrical switching even in low-voltage PLC circuits. The enclosure is IP67 rated, providing superior protection against dust and water ingress. Designed for use with neutral media including air, water, and oil, the Danfoss 060-312166 KPS45 Pressure Switch utilizes a G 1/4 A pressure connection. This unit is frequently deployed in pump and compressor control systems where high vibration levels would cause standard switches to fail prematurely.
