Danfoss MBS 1700 Pressure Transmitter | General Purpose | 0 – 16 Bar | 060G6106
Product Description: The MBS 1700 (060G6106) is engineered to deliver high-quality performance in a compact and straightforward package. In the UAE—where efficiency and reliability are key for building management and water distribution—the MBS 1700 is widely used to monitor pump systems and air compressors. This model covers a pressure range of 0 to 16 bar (0 to 232 psi), which is the standard requirement for most UAE commercial water booster sets. Its robust stainless steel construction ensures it can handle the humid and dusty conditions typical of Middle Eastern utility rooms while maintaining a stable and accurate signal.
Key Features & Benefits:
- Plug-and-Play Simplicity: Designed for quick installation with a standard DIN plug and a 4-20 mA output that integrates seamlessly with UAE building automation systems (BMS).
- Excellent Vibration Stability: Built to withstand the mechanical stress of pumps and small compressors, ensuring a long service life without signal drift.
- Corrosion-Resistant Housing: Made from high-grade stainless steel to resist the saline and humid air common in coastal regions like Sharjah and Dubai.
- High Resolution: Provides a consistent 4-20 mA current signal for precise pressure control in water supply networks.
- Cost-Efficient Performance: Offers Danfoss quality and reliability at a price point optimized for general industrial and HVAC projects in the UAE.

FAQs:
- Q: Is the 060G6106 suitable for air compressor control in Dubai?
- A: Yes, the 16-bar range is ideal for standard industrial air compressors used in UAE manufacturing plants.
- Q: What is the difference between MBS 1700 and MBS 3000?
- A: The MBS 1700 is a dedicated general-purpose series for water and air, while the MBS 3000 offers more advanced features and higher accuracy for specialized industrial processes.
- Q: Can it be used with salt water?
- A: While stainless steel is resistant, the MBS 1700 is primarily intended for fresh water, air, and non-corrosive oils. For seawater, a marine-grade series like the MBS 3300 is recommended.
