Product details
Danfoss MBC 5100 Block-Type Pressure Switch | Marine & Industrial | 061B100566
Product Description: The 061B100566 is designed to withstand the harsh conditions of ship engine rooms and heavy industrial plants. In the UAE, where equipment is subjected to high ambient heat and constant mechanical vibration, the MBC 5100 series is the professional choice for reliability. This model features a regulation range of 1 to 10 bar, making it ideal for monitoring lubricating oil pressure, fuel lines, and cooling water systems in vessels docked at Dubai Maritime City or operating offshore in Abu Dhabi. Its “block” design allows for direct mounting on the machinery, ensuring the switching point remains stable and accurate despite the intense mechanical stress common in the Middle East’s maritime sector.
Key Features & Benefits:
- Full Marine Approvals: Certified by leading global maritime authorities (LR, DNV, GL, BV, ABS, etc.), ensuring compliance for all international vessels in UAE waters.
- Superior Vibration Resistance: The robust block construction is purpose-built to maintain accuracy in high-vibration environments, reducing the risk of false alarms.
- Versatile 10-Bar Range: Optimized for a 1.0 to 10.0 bar range, suitable for a wide variety of medium-pressure maritime and industrial applications.
- Modular Block System: Its compact footprint saves space and allows for easy integration with Danfoss MBV test valves for simplified on-site maintenance.
- Durable IP65 Housing: Sealed against dust, water, and saline air, making it highly reliable for coastal and offshore UAE installations.

FAQs:
- Q: Is the 061B100566 suitable for lube oil monitoring in Dubai vessels?
- A: Yes, the 1–10 bar range is the industry standard for monitoring lubricating oil pressure in marine engines and gearboxes throughout the UAE.
- Q: Why is the block design preferred for Abu Dhabi industrial plants?
- A: Its compact size and extreme resistance to mechanical shock make it much more reliable than traditional switches in high-intensity industrial environments.
- Q: Can I calibrate this switch without stopping the process?\
- A: When mounted on a Danfoss MBV 5000 test valve via its flanged connection, UAE technicians can safely test and calibrate the switch while the system remains under pressure.
