Danfoss MBC 8100 Block-Type Thermostat | Marine & Industrial | 061B820566

Product Description: The 061B820566 is engineered to thrive in environments where space is limited and vibration is constant. In the UAE, this thermostat is a staple in offshore oil and gas rigs, maritime engine rooms, and industrial cooling systems. Its “block” construction offers superior mechanical stability compared to traditional thermostats, making it highly resistant to the shocks and vibrations found on large vessels in Dubai Maritime City. With an IP65-rated enclosure, it provides robust protection against the humidity, salt air, and dust typical of the Middle Eastern coastal and industrial landscape.

Key Features & Benefits:

• Vibration and Shock Resistance: The compact block design is purpose-built to maintain accurate switching points even on high-vibration machinery and marine engines.
• Marine-Grade Certification: Fully approved by major global maritime authorities, ensuring compliance for all vessels operating in UAE and international waters.
• Space-Efficient Design: Its small, block-type form factor allows for dense installation in modern, compact control panels and engine setups.
• Fixed Differential & High Repeatability: Delivers consistent temperature control, essential for protecting expensive industrial components from overheating in the UAE heat.
• Durable IP65 Protection: Sealed against dust and water, making it ideal for the demanding environmental conditions of Abu Dhabi’s industrial zones.
