Key Technical Advantages

1. Dual Series Positioning – Universal Industrial and Full Marine Coverage

The MBS 3000 series is a general industrial-grade pressure transmitter suitable for hydraulic systems, compressed air, process industries, and more. The MBS 5150/5153 series is marine-grade, approved by all major classification societies (LR, DNV, GL, RINA, ABS, BV, NKK, etc.), specifically designed for demanding marine environments such as ship engine rooms.

2. Integrated Pulse Snubber for Severe Medium Influences (MBS 5150/5153)

The MBS 5150/5153 series is equipped with an integrated pulse snubber—a 0.3 mm orifice built into the pressure connection—specifically designed for marine applications with cavitation, liquid hammer, or pressure peaks. This design effectively protects the sensor from pressure shock damage, significantly extending service life.

3. High Accuracy and Fast Response

The MBS 5150 series delivers typical accuracy ≤ ±0.1% FSwith non-linearity ≤ ±0.2% FS, representing a high-precision standard in marine pressure measurement. The MBS 3000 series offers typical accuracy ≤ ±0.5% FSwith response time ≤ 4 ms, meeting dynamic pressure measurement requirements.

4. Excellent Vibration Stability and EMC Performance

Both the MBS 3000 and MBS 5150 series feature excellent vibration stability, robust construction, and high EMC/EMI protection, meeting the most stringent industrial and marine requirements. Even near strong electromagnetic interference sources such as variable frequency drives and motors, the transmitters deliver stable, accurate signals.

5. Wide Temperature Operating Range

Both series support a wide media and ambient temperature range of -40°C to +85°C. From freezing ship decks to hot engine rooms, they maintain stable measurement accuracy.

6. 100% Direct Interchangeability and Simulated Condition Testing

All models strictly adhere to Danfoss original mounting dimensions and interface standards (G1/4″ pressure connection, Angular connector electrical connection), enabling direct drop-in replacement of original pressure transmitters without piping modification or system adjustment. Every unit undergoes 100% simulated operating condition bench testing prior to shipment.

• Power Generation: Lubrication oil pressure and cooling water pressure monitoring for diesel generator sets

Expert Maintenance Tips

1. Verify Model and Range Compatibility Prior to Installation

All three models in this batch have a range of 0–10 bar. Confirm that system operating pressure does not exceed 10 bar prior to installation. Overload pressures are 60 bar (060G1125) and 20 bar (060N1243) respectively.

2. Correct Installation Torque and Sealing

The MBS 3000 series features G1/4″ male thread (EN 837) pressure connections with hex size 27 mm. The MBS 5150 series features G1/4″ female with flange pressure connections. Use a torque wrench during installation to the torque value specified in Danfoss technical manuals. Use OEM-specification O-rings or bonded sealing washers—PTFE tape must not be used (it may block internal sensor passages). Ensure piping is clean prior to installation to prevent debris from damaging the sensor diaphragm.

3. Electrical Connection Precautions

• 060G1125 features Angular connector Pg 9, standard EN 175301-803-A, supply pin Pin 1, common Pin 2

• 060N1243 features Angular connector 4-pin

• Supply voltage: 060G1125 9–32 V DC; 060N1243/060N1201 10–32 V DC

• Verify supply voltage is within allowable range and observe correct polarity prior to wiring

4. Pulse Snubber Maintenance (MBS 5150/5153 Series)

The MBS 5150/5153 series is equipped with an integrated pulse snubber—a built-in 0.3 mm orifice. Over extended service, the orifice may become partially blocked by fine particles in the medium. Periodically check the transmitter response time—if significantly slower response is observed, the pulse snubber may require cleaning or replacement.

5. Mounting Position and Vibration Protection

Both MBS 3000 and MBS 5150 series offer excellent vibration stability and can be mounted in any orientation. For extreme vibration applications, mechanical decoupling via flexible pressure hose connection is recommended.

6. Temperature Effects

Both series have compensated temperature ranges of 0°C to +80°C. Under extreme temperature conditions, perform zero-point calibration during system commissioning to eliminate measurement deviations caused by installation location temperature variations.

7. Periodic Calibration and Functional Checks

Perform calibration checks every 12 months or according to system criticality to verify that output signal vs. pressure correspondence remains within specification (060G1125: ≤±0.5% FS; 060N1243: ≤±0.1% FS typical). If abnormal signal drift or output anomalies are observed, arrange for servicing or replacement.
