DANFOSS PRESSURE SWITCH CHARACTERIZATION REFERENCE KP 35.

1. Main adjustment axis:
Function : Allows you to adjust the trigger sensitivity of the pressure switch by
applying torque on the piston through the spring, adjusts sensor sensitivity - initial
and final pressure range, interrupts the operation of the compressor when the
condensing pressure takes on an excessive value.
SAE 4340 steel material .

2. Main spring: Generates opposite pressure, when the fluid pressure is

greater, the pressure switch returns to its initial state made of Steel. The main
spring can be adjusted to exert a counter-pressure that opposes the pressure
of the bellows.
