Danfoss KP1 Low Pressure Switch | Suction Side Protection | 060-110191

Product Description:

The KP1 (060-110191) is engineered to protect compressors against excessively low suction pressure, which can lead to overheating or oil slugging. In the UAE—where refrigeration systems in supermarkets, cold stores, and commercial buildings operate under high thermal stress—the KP1 ensures the system stays within safe operating limits. This model features an Automatic Reset and a regulation range of -0.2 to 7.5 bar. Its vibration-proof design and ultra-short contact bounce time ensure maximum electrical reliability, preventing arcing and extending the life of the control system in demanding Middle Eastern environments.

Key Features & Benefits:

• Compressor Suction Protection: Ideal for use as a safety cutout to prevent compressor damage due to loss of charge or restricted suction lines.
• Automatic Reset: Features a self-resetting mechanism that allows the system to resume operation once the suction pressure returns to the set differential.
• Vibration Resistant: Specially built to maintain accuracy and contact stability even when mounted near high-vibration compressors in UAE machine rooms.
• Ultra-Short Bounce Time: Minimizes electrical wear on contacts, significantly increasing the reliability of the system under high-cycle conditions.
• Wide Refrigerant Compatibility: Suitable for all common fluorinated refrigerants (HCFC and non-flammable HFC), including R134a, R404A, and R407C used in the UAE.

FAQs:

• Q: Is the KP1 060-110191 suitable for “Pump Down” control in Dubai?
• A: Yes, it is the standard choice for pump-down cycles in UAE refrigeration systems, ensuring the compressor stops precisely when the evaporator is cleared.
• Q: Can this be used for high-pressure cutouts?
• A: No, the KP1 is strictly for low-pressure applications (up to 7.5 bar). For high-pressure protection, a KP5 or KP6 should be used.
• Q: How do I adjust the cut-out point in an Abu Dhabi facility?
• A: The unit features a clear scale on the front; simply use the adjustment screws on the top to set the range and differential to your specific system requirements.
