Danfoss-KP-61-Temperature-Switches-Thermostat-FIG-4CAUTION: The mounting panel must be plane to avoid damage of the control.Danfoss-KP-61-Temperature-Switches-Thermostat-FIG-3

Wiring

Danfoss-KP-61-Temperature-Switches-Thermostat-FIG-4CAUTION: Disconnect power supply before wiring connections are made to avoid possible electrical shock or damage to equipment.
All wiring should conform to the National Electrical Code and local regulations.
Terminal block

Danfoss-KP-61-Temperature-Switches-Thermostat-FIG-5

CAUTION: Use terminal screws furnished inthe contact block.
Use tightening torque 20 lb. in. (2.3 Nm). Use copper wire only.
Contact load ratings

  • 120V a.c. 16 FLA, 96 LRA
  • 240V a.c. 8 FLA, 48 LRA
  • 240V d.c. 12W pilot duty

Load Option A
CUT-OUT on temperature drop

Wire terminals 1 – 4:
CUT-IN = High Set Point (HSP) see “Setting”
CUT-OUT = Low Set Point (LSP) see “Setting”

Danfoss-KP-61-Temperature-Switches-Thermostat-FIG-6

Terms 1 – 4 close on temperature rise
Terms 1 – 4 open on temperature drop

Example: CUT-IN = 10 °C (50 °F)

CUT-OUT = 4.5 °C (40 °F) This means CUT-IN = HSP = 10 °C (50 °F) and CUT-OUT = LSP = 4.5 °C (40 °F)

Note:

Danfoss-KP-61-Temperature-Switches-Thermostat-FIG-7= Bellows movement on pressure rise
= Bellows movement on pressure drop

The free terminal can be used for signal purpose.

Load Option B
CUT-OUT on temperature rise

Wire terminals 1 – 2:

CUT-IN = Low Set Point (LSP) see “Setting”
CUT-OUT = High Set Point (HSP) see “Setting”

Danfoss-KP-61-Temperature-Switches-Thermostat-FIG-8

Terms 1 – 2 close on temperature drop
Terms 1 – 2 open on temperature rise

Example: CUT-IN = 0 °C (32 °F)

CUT-OUT = 10 °C (50 °F) This means CUT-IN = LSP = 0 °C (32 °F) and CUT-OUT = HSP = 10 °C (50 °F)

Determination of differential

For KP w/ vapor charge and auto. reset (KP 61, KP 62, KP 63, KP 68, KP 69): Use graphs to determine correct differential.

Setting

For KP 61, KP 62, KP 63, KP 68, KP 69, KP 71, KP 61 and KP 71 w/man. reset KP 73, KP 75, KP 77, KP 79 and KP 81 w/auto reset

Danfoss-KP-61-Temperature-Switches-Thermostat-FIG-12

Note:

To findthe  correct differential, see “Determination of differential”

HIGH SET POINT minus DIFFERENTIAL equals LOW SET POINT

Example:

HSP – DIFF. = LSP
7 °C – 5 °C = 2 °C
(45 °F) (10 °F) (35 °F)

Example:

HSP – DIFF. = LSP
3 °C – 3 °C = 0 °C
(37.4 °F) (5.4 °F) (32 °F)

KP w/ hand switch

Danfoss-KP-61-Temperature-Switches-Thermostat-FIG-13

Danfoss-KP-61-Temperature-Switches-Thermostat-FIG-4CAUTION:

  • Hand switch breaks the circuit by a micro contact gap.
  • Use hand switch for service on refrigeration parts only
  • Cut out the main switch before service on the electrical partsDanfoss-KP-61-Temperature-Switches-Thermostat-FIG-15
