Versatile, long lasting and reliable
KP pressure switches control, regulate and monitor pressure in air, marine, water and heating applications. Because they play an important safety role in these applications, it’s crucial that the automatic or manual reset functions operate perfectly – so reliability and quality are paramount.
But the KP story doesn’t stop there. KP pressure switches are easy to fit and handle, have a user-friendly and elegant design, and they are compact enough to fit into small spaces. Like many Danfoss products, they can be customised to fit your needs with electrical load capacities up to 16A AC3, housings up to IP67, and pressure ranges up to 60 bar. It’s this versatility and reliability that makes KP pressure switch family very popular products.
Within each KP pressure switch, you’ll find a perfect interaction between the bellow, the snap mechanism and the contact system. The quick snap mechanism ensures a Class A contact function, which complies with EMC standards. A negligible bouncing time (10-15 µs) extends the life of the switch so it can withstand more than 100,000 operations, keeping your equipment working longer. And the KP can cope with vibrations ranging from 20-1000Hz at 4g, making it ideal for heavy duty applications.
The KP range is a good fit with other products in the Danfoss portfolio, including solenoid valves, pressure and temperature sensors and transmitters. And the entire KP family is also available in a temperature control range with the same range of features as the pressure controls.
With Danfoss’ extensive knowledge of air, marine, heating and water applications, you can be certain that you are in safe hands, no matter how potentially dangerous your operations are.
