4. Configuració i instal·lació
Installation should only be performed by qualified technicians familiar with pressure systems and electrical wiring. Ensure all safety precautions are followed.
- Muntatge: Securely mount the pressure switch in a location free from excessive vibration, direct sunlight, and extreme temperatures. Use appropriate fasteners for the mounting surface.
- Connexió de pressió: Connect the switch to the pressure line using the 3/8 inch threaded connection. Ensure a leak-tight seal using appropriate sealant or tape. Do not overtighten.
- Cablejat elèctric: Disconnect all power before wiring. Open the electrical enclosure. Connect the power supply and control circuit wires to the appropriate screw terminals (SPDT configuration). Refer to the wiring diagram provided inside the switch cover for correct connections. Ensure proper grounding.
- Configuració de pressió: Adjust the main pressure setting and differential using the internal adjustment screws or dials. Refer to the 'Operating Instructions' section for details on setting the desired pressure range and differential.
- Verificació: After installation, slowly pressurize the system and verify the switch operates at the desired set points. Check for any leaks in the pressure connection.
5. Instruccions de funcionament
The Danfoss RT-121 pressure switch operates automatically based on the set pressure points. The primary adjustments are the main pressure set point and the differential.
- Setting the Main Pressure: The main pressure set point determines the pressure at which the switch will actuate (either open or close a circuit). This is typically adjusted via a main spring or dial. Consult the markings inside the switch for specific adjustment procedures and corresponding pressure values.
- Setting the Differential: The differential (or hysteresis) is the difference between the cut-in and cut-out pressure. This prevents rapid cycling of the connected equipment. Adjust the differential according to system requirements. A smaller differential means the switch reacts to smaller pressure changes, while a larger differential provides more stability.
- Seguiment: Once set, the switch will continuously monitor the system pressure. When the pressure reaches the set point, the internal contacts will change state (Normally Open to Closed, or Normally Closed to Open), triggering the connected control circuit.
6. Manteniment
The Danfoss RT-121 pressure switch is designed for minimal maintenance. Regular inspections are recommended to ensure continued reliable operation.
- Inspecció visual: Periodically inspect the switch for any signs of physical damage, corrosion, or loose connections.
- Connexió de pressió: Check the pressure connection for leaks. Tighten if necessary, but do not overtighten.
- Connexions elèctriques: Assegureu-vos que totes les connexions elèctriques estiguin segures i lliures de corrosió.
- Prova de funcionalitat: Periodically test the switch's operation by manually adjusting the system pressure to verify that the switch actuates at the set points.
- Neteja: Mantingueu l'exterior de l'interruptor net i lliure de pols i deixalles. No utilitzeu productes químics agressius.
7. Solució De Problemes
If the pressure switch is not functioning as expected, consider the following common issues and solutions:
| Problema | Causa possible | Solució |
|---|---|---|
| Switch does not actuate at set pressure. | Incorrect pressure setting; Clogged pressure port; Faulty wiring; Internal mechanical failure. | Verify pressure settings; Clean pressure port; Check wiring connections; Replace switch if internal failure is suspected. |
| Switch cycles too frequently. | Differential set too low; System pressure fluctuations. | Increase differential setting; Investigate and stabilize system pressure. |
| Leak at pressure connection. | Improper sealing; Damaged threads. | Re-apply sealant/tape and tighten connection; Replace connection if threads are damaged. |
| No electrical continuity. | Loose wiring; Corroded terminals; Internal contact failure. | Check and tighten all wiring; Clean terminals; Replace switch. |
If troubleshooting steps do not resolve the issue, contact Danfoss technical support or a qualified service technician.
