Product details
Danfoss MBC 5100 Block-Type Pressure Switch | Marine & Industrial | 061B001066
Product Description: The 061B001066 is built to perform in the most grueling conditions, such as ship engine rooms and offshore platforms. In the UAE, where equipment must withstand extreme ambient heat and constant mechanical vibration, the MBC 5100 series is the industry standard for reliability. This model features a regulation range of 5 to 40 bar, making it ideal for monitoring high-pressure hydraulic systems, lubricating oil lines, and compressed air circuits. Its “block” design allows for direct mounting on machinery, ensuring the switch remains stable and accurate in high-vibration environments like those found in Dubai Maritime City and industrial zones in Abu Dhabi.
Key Features & Benefits:
- Comprehensive Marine Approvals: Fully certified by major international maritime authorities (LR, DNV, GL, ABS, etc.), ensuring suitability for vessels operating in UAE and international waters.
- Superior Vibration Stability: The robust block construction is purpose-built to withstand the intense mechanical stress of marine engines and industrial pumps.
- High-Pressure Versatility: Optimized for a 5.0 to 40.0 bar range, providing flexible application across various hydraulic and pneumatic systems.
- Compact Modular System: Its small footprint saves critical space in engine rooms and allows for easy integration with Danfoss MBV test valves.
- Rugged IP65 Protection: Sealed against dust and water ingress, protecting the internal contact system from the corrosive, saline atmosphere of the UAE coast.

FAQs:
- Q: Can the 061B001066 be used for high-pressure hydraulics in Abu Dhabi?
- A: Yes, the 5–40 bar range is highly suitable for high-pressure hydraulic monitoring and safety applications in UAE industrial plants.
- Q: What is the advantage of the block design in the UAE?
- A: It is significantly more resistant to the shock and vibration common on large vessels and offshore rigs compared to traditional box-style switches.
- Q: Is it possible to test this switch without stopping the system?
- A: Yes, when paired with the Danfoss MBV series test valve, UAE technicians can perform on-site calibration and testing while the system is under pressure.
