Danfoss MBC 5100 Block-Type Pressure Switch | Marine & Industrial | 061B110366

Product Description: The 061B110366 is designed to withstand the severe conditions of ship engine rooms and demanding industrial environments. In the UAE, this switch is widely used for monitoring lubricating oil pressure, hydraulic systems, and water cooling in vessels docked at Dubai Maritime City or operating off the coast of Abu Dhabi. Its “block” design offers exceptional vibration stability and shock resistance, ensuring that the switching point remains accurate despite constant mechanical stress. With a regulation range of 10 to 100 bar and all major marine approvals, it provides high repeatability and long-term durability in the Middle East’s high-ambient and saline conditions.

Key Features & Benefits:

Full Marine Approvals: Certified by major maritime authorities (LR, DNV, GL, BV, ABS, etc.), making it standard for international vessels in UAE waters.
Superior Vibration Stability: Purpose-built to handle high-vibration engine and pump environments without losing calibration.
High Pressure Capacity: Specifically rated for a 10–100 bar regulation range, suitable for high-pressure hydraulic and industrial loops.
Compact Block System: Its small footprint allows for dense mounting in machine control panels where space is a premium.
Durable Enclosure: IP65-rated housing protects internal components from the dust, humidity, and salt air prevalent in the UAE.
