Installation GuideSingle Pressure ControlType KPU© Danfoss A/S (AC-MCI / jmn), 2012-12 DKRCC.PI.CD0.F1.22 / 520H6076 1060R9767060R9767ApplicationKPU pressure controls are for use on commercialrefrigeration and air conditioning systems to give protectionagainst excessively low suction pressure or excessivelyhigh discharge pressure.They are also used for starting and stopping refrigerationcompressors and fans on air-cooled condensers.KPU pressure controls are fitted with the Single-Pole Single-Throw (SPST) or Single-Pole Double-Throw (SPDT) switches,suitable for direct as well as indirect (with a contactor) control.KPU pressure controls are available in several pressure rangesand are compatible with HCFC and non-flammable HFCrefrigerants. KPU 6W and KPU 6B are fail safe controls for highpressure refrigerants (R410A and R744). Standard enclosure is~NEMA 1InstallationSelect an accessible location, where the control and pressureconnection line will not be subject to damage.IMPORTANT:Mount the pressure control in a position that willallow drainage of liquids away from control bellows.Pressure connection of the control must always belocated on the top side of the refrigerant line.This reduces the possibility of oil, liquids, orsediment collecting in the bellows, which couldcause the control malfunction.IMPORTANT:Ensure the ambient temperature for the pressurecontrol is higher than the refrigeration line as thatwill prevent liquid migration and accumulation inthe bellows.Product SpecificationApplication TypeCode numberResetContact system Regulatingrange[inHg][psig]Differential∆p[psi]Max.workingpressure[psig]Max.testingpressure[psig]Ambienttemp.[°F]¼ in.male flare36 in. cap.tube w. ¼ in.flare nutType SwitchactionLow PressureControlCut Out onpressure fallKPU 1 060-5231 060-5233 Auto.
