4. Asennus ja asetukset
Careful installation is crucial for the correct function and longevity of the pressure switch.
4.1 Asennus
The KP1 pressure switch is designed for panel mounting. Ensure a stable and vibration-free location. The switch should be mounted vertically with the pressure connection facing downwards to prevent accumulation of oil or moisture in the pressure element.
4.2 Paineliitäntä
The pressure switch features a 1/4 inch flare connection. Use appropriate tools and ensure a leak-tight connection to the refrigeration system.

- Ensure the system is depressurized before connecting the switch.
- Apply a small amount of refrigeration oil to the flare connection threads.
- Tighten the flare nut securely using a flare nut wrench to prevent leaks. Do not overtighten.
- Perform a leak test after connection.
4.3 Sähköjohdot
The KP1 pressure switch has SPDT (Single-Pole Double-Throw) contacts. Refer to the wiring diagram provided with the product or on the inside of the cover for specific connections. Ensure all wiring complies with local electrical codes.
- Connect the common terminal (C) to the power source.
- Connect the normally open (NO) terminal for circuits that should close on pressure rise (e.g., high-pressure cut-out).
- Connect the normally closed (NC) terminal for circuits that should open on pressure rise (e.g., low-pressure cut-in).
- Varmista oikea maadoitus.
5. Käyttöohjeet
The Danfoss KP1 Pressure Switch allows for adjustment of both the cut-in pressure and the differential pressure.
5.1 Setting the Cut-in Pressure
The cut-in pressure (or cut-out pressure, depending on application) is set using the main adjustment screw. This screw typically adjusts the spring tension, which determines the pressure at which the switch changes state.
- Remove the protective cover of the switch.
- Locate the main adjustment screw (often labeled 'RANGE' or 'CUT IN').
- Turn the screw clockwise to increase the set pressure, and counter-clockwise to decrease it.
- Use a pressure gauge to monitor the system pressure and verify the setting.
5.2 Setting the Differential Pressure
The differential pressure determines the difference between the cut-in and cut-out pressures. This is crucial for preventing rapid cycling of the compressor.

- Locate the differential adjustment screw (often labeled 'DIFF').
- Turn the screw clockwise to increase the differential, and counter-clockwise to decrease it.
- The cut-out pressure will be the cut-in pressure minus the differential (for low-pressure switches) or the cut-in pressure plus the differential (for high-pressure switches).
- Replace the protective cover after adjustments are complete.
6. Huolto
The Danfoss KP1 Pressure Switch is designed for long-term, reliable operation with minimal maintenance. However, periodic checks are recommended.
- Silmämääräinen tarkastus: Tarkista kytkin säännöllisesti mahdollisten fyysisten vaurioiden, korroosion tai löysien liitosten varalta.
- Vuotojen havaitseminen: Periodically check the pressure connection for refrigerant leaks using an appropriate leak detector.
- Toiminnan tarkistus: If possible and safe to do so, periodically verify the switch's set points by observing system pressure and switch operation.
- Puhdistus: Pidä kytkimen ulkopinta puhtaana pölystä ja roskista. Älä käytä voimakkaita kemikaaleja.
Note: Internal components are not user-serviceable. Do not attempt to disassemble the sealed unit beyond removing the cover for adjustments.
7. Vianmääritys
This section provides guidance on common issues you might encounter with the KP1 Pressure Switch.
| Ongelma | Mahdollinen syy | Ratkaisu |
|---|---|---|
| Switch does not activate at set pressure. | Incorrect setting, faulty wiring, pressure connection leak, internal fault. | Verify settings, check wiring continuity, inspect for leaks, replace switch if faulty. |
| System cycles too frequently. | Differential setting too low, system issues (e.g., low refrigerant charge). | Increase differential setting, diagnose and rectify system issues. |
| Switch contacts remain open/closed. | Pressure outside operating range, stuck contacts, internal fault. | Check system pressure, replace switch if contacts are stuck or internal fault is suspected. |
| Refrigerant leak at connection. | Improperly tightened flare nut, damaged flare, worn gasket. | Retighten connection, inspect flare for damage, replace gasket if present, ensure proper torque. |
