It allows the switch housing to be mounted in a centralized control panel or a cooler environment up to 3 meters away from the hot medium. This protects the electrical terminals and the microswitch from direct thermal exposure and makes maintenance easier for the operator.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"9\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"9\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eHow do I adjust the mechanical differential to prevent pump short-cycling?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"9\"\u003eThe KPS 79 features an internal adjustment screw that varies the differential between 4 and 16 Celsius. If your cooling pump is cycling too frequently, increasing the differential toward 16 Celsius will create a wider gap between the \"cut-in\" and \"cut-out\" points, effectively lengthening the operation cycles and protecting the motor from thermal stress.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"10\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"10\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eIs this thermostat suitable for use in engine rooms with high vibration?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"10\"\u003eYes. The KPS series is specifically designed for high-vibration environments, rated for 4 g (10-200 Hz). The internal components are mechanically dampened to prevent false switching or contact chatter, which is common in marine engine rooms or near heavy industrial reciprocating machinery.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr data-path-to-node=\"11\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-path-to-node=\"12\"\u003eEngineering \u0026amp; Installation Guide\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul data-path-to-node=\"13\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"13,0,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"13,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eCapillary Tube Routing:\u003c\/b\u003e When routing the 3-meter capillary, ensure a minimum bend radius of 25 mm. Avoid contact with sharp metal edges or high-voltage power lines.
