Danfoss MBC 5100 Block-Type Pressure Switch | Marine & Industrial | 061B100166

Product Description: The 061B100166 is engineered to provide reliable performance in demanding environments like ship engine rooms and heavy industrial plants. In the UAE, where equipment must withstand extreme ambient heat and constant mechanical vibration, the MBC 5100 series is the industry benchmark for reliability. This model features a regulation range of -0.2 to 4 bar, making it highly versatile for monitoring suction pressure, low-pressure cooling water, or lubricating oil systems. Its “block” design allows for direct, space-saving mounting on machinery, ensuring the switch remains calibrated despite the intense vibrations typical of vessels in Dubai Maritime City and industrial facilities in Abu Dhabi.

Key Features & Benefits:

• Versatile Low-Pressure Range: Optimized for -0.2 to 4.0 bar, providing accurate control for both vacuum and low-pressure fluid systems.
• Global Marine Certifications: Fully approved by all major maritime authorities (DNV, LR, ABS, BV, GL, etc.), ensuring compliance for vessels operating in UAE and international waters.
• Vibration Stability: The robust block construction is purpose-built to maintain accuracy in high-vibration environments, preventing false alarms and system downtime.
• Modular Block Concept: Part of the Danfoss modular system, which allows for compact installation and easy pairing with MBV test valves for on-site calibration in the UAE.
• Hermetic IP65 Protection: Sealed against dust, water, and saline air, making it highly durable for the coastal and offshore environments of the Middle East.

FAQs:

• Q: Can the 061B100166 be used for vacuum monitoring in Dubai?
• A: Yes, with its range starting at -0.2 bar, it is suitable for low-vacuum monitoring in various industrial and marine applications across the UAE.
• Q: Why is the “Block” design preferred for UAE industrial machinery?
• A: Block switches are more compact and significantly more resistant to mechanical shock and vibration than traditional box-type switches.
• Q: How can I verify the setpoint in an Abu Dhabi offshore facility?
• A: By using the flanged connection to mount it on a Danfoss MBV 5000 test valve, technicians can safely test and calibrate the switch while the system remains pressurized.
