Built for longevity in applications such as power generation, heating systems, and maritime engine rooms, this unit features a durable armoring and an adsorption-charge sensing element. By offering precise SPDT gold-contact switching, it ensures reliable signal transmission and long-term stability even in environments prone to high vibration or mechanical shock. Its ability to withstand extreme ambient temperatures, from -40 Celsius up to 70 Celsius, makes it a critical component for preventing thermal runaway and minimizing downtime in mission-critical process loops.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Configuration\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003e060L312866\u003c\/strong\u003e KPS80 series is configured with a 2000 mm capillary tube, providing flexibility for remote sensor placement within complex machinery layouts. The connection interface features a standard M 18 x 1.5 thread for pocket or hose integration, ensuring a secure seal. This model utilizes an adjustable differential, ranging from 4.5 K to 18 K, allowing engineers to fine-tune the switching behavior to the specific requirements of the thermal process. Electrical termination is handled via a Pg 13.5 screwed cable entry with a metal gland, ensuring superior mechanical protection and ingress prevention for the internal connections.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeature\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecification\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"2\"\u003eModel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"2\"\u003e060L312866\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"3\"\u003eBrand\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"3\"\u003eDanfoss\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"4\"\u003eSeries\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"4\"\u003eKPS80\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"5\"\u003eRange\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"5\"\u003e70 to 120 Celsius\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"6\"\u003eCapillary Length\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"6\"\u003e2000 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"7\"\u003eContact Function\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"7\"\u003eSPDT Gold\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"8\"\u003eElectrical Connection\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"8\"\u003ePg 13.5\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"9\"\u003eDifferential\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"9\"\u003e4.5 to 18 K (Adjustable)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"10\"\u003eOperating Temp\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"10\"\u003e-40 to 70 Celsius\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"11\"\u003eConnection\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"11\"\u003eM 18 x 1.5\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"12\"\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"12\"\u003e2.5 kg\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFAQs\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the advantage of using SPDT gold contacts in this controller?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGold-plated contacts are optimized for low-current applications (1 to 30 mA), ensuring reliable electrical contact and preventing the formation of oxide layers that can cause signal failure in low-voltage logic circuits.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan the KPS80 be installed in high-vibration areas?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, the KPS80 series is specifically designed for high-vibration resilience.
