Heavy duty pressure switch
MBC 5000 and MBC 5100
MBC pressure switches are used in industrial and
marine applications where space and reliability
are the most important features.
MBCs are compact pressure switches, designed
according to our block design to survive in the
harsh conditions known from machine rooms
onboard ships.
MBCs have high vibration resistance and
MBC 5100 features all common marine approvals.
The fixed, but low differential guarantees
accurate monitoring of critical pressures.
MBV test valves can be delivered as standard
option for MBC.

How to choose To achieve the best operating conditions for MBC
pressure controls, it is recommended to apply the
following rules of thumb.
Choose:
• The MBC type/types which meet the demands
for the operating pressure
• The MBC version with the lowest possible
setting range
© Danfoss | DCS (rm) | 2019.09
• A diaphragm type, if pressure peaks and
pulsations occur in the system (if possible)
• Bellows type, if low differential is needed
• Piston type for high pressure
