Danfoss 060L312866 Thermostat
The Danfoss 060L312866 is a heavy-duty KPS80 Thermostat engineered for demanding industrial and marine environments where vibration resistance and high enclosure protection are non-negotiable. This SPDT temperature switch operates within a 70°C to 120°C (158°F to 248°F) range, making it a reliable choice for monitoring diesel plants, compressors, and power station cooling systems. The unit features a gold-plated contact system that ensures signal integrity even in low-load logic circuits, though it is fully capable of handling AC-1 and AC-3 motor loads. The 060L312866 is technically identical to the legacy 060L3128, providing a direct drop-in replacement for existing control panels without requiring re-drilling or wiring redesigns.
Built with a 2000mm armored capillary tube and a remote bulb sensor, this Danfoss KPS series switch allows for flexible mounting away from high-heat sources. The IP67-rated enclosure is sea-water resistant, protecting internal electromechanical components from moisture and dust ingress. Technicians can fine-tune system response using the adjustable differential (4.5 to 18°C), preventing rapid cycling and extending the life of downstream contactors. Whether used for high-temperature alarms or precise regulation, the Danfoss 060L312866 delivers consistent setpoint accuracy in the most rigorous HVACR and industrial applications.
