MBS 3000 (060G1107) Danfoss Compact Pressure Transmitter

Product Overview

The MBS 3000 (060G1107) is a heavy-duty, compact pressure transmitter designed for demanding industrial environments. As part of the gold-standard MBS 3000 series, the Danfoss 060G1107 (060G1107) provides a precise 4–20 mA output signal across a high-pressure range of 0–100 bar. This transmitter is specifically engineered for B2B applications in high-pressure hydraulics, industrial washing systems, and heavy-duty compressors where durability against vibration, pressure peaks, and electromagnetic interference is mandatory for system stability and safety.

Technical Configuration

The MBS 3000-3011-1AB04 is built to last, featuring a piezo-resistive silicon sensing element protected by a 316L stainless steel enclosure. It utilizes a gauge (relative) pressure reference, meaning it measures system pressure against the current atmospheric pressure. The electrical connection follows the industry-standard EN 175301-803-A (Plug Pg 9), allowing for easy field replacement and secure wiring. The G ¼ A pressure connection (EN 837) ensures compatibility with most standard high-pressure manifolds and piping systems. Its advanced internal design offers superior EMI/RFI protection, ensuring signal integrity even near high-frequency industrial drives.

Technical FAQs

Can the 060G1107 handle pressure surges beyond 100 bar?

Yes, the MBS 3000 series is designed with significant overpressure capabilities. However, to prevent permanent zero-point shift or diaphragm damage, it is recommended to keep operating peaks within the manufacturer's specified overpressure limit (typically 3x to 6x the measuring range depending on the specific model variant).

Is the transmitter suitable for mobile hydraulic applications?

Absolutely. Its high resistance to shock (500g / 1ms) and vibration (20g, 20Hz–2kHz) makes it an excellent choice for mobile machinery, such as excavators, cranes, and agricultural equipment.

Does the transmitter require calibration upon arrival?

No, the MBS 3000 is factory-calibrated and temperature-compensated. It is ready for "plug-and-play" installation. Periodic verification is recommended according to your facility's quality management protocols.

Engineering & Installation Guide

• Wiring Scheme: This is a 2-wire transmitter. Connect the positive (+) lead from your 24V DC power supply to Pin 1 and the signal return (-) to Pin 2. Always use shielded cable in environments with high electrical noise to maintain the ± 0.5% accuracy.

• Mechanical Connection: When mounting the G ¼ A thread, use a 27 mm wrench on the hex flats of the transmitter body. Ensure a proper seal using a copper or bonded washer. Never tighten the transmitter by gripping the electrical plug or the stainless steel housing.

• Condensation Management: For installations in high-humidity areas or outdoor environments, mount the transmitter with the electrical connector pointing downwards. This prevents moisture from collecting at the cable entry and potentially breaching the IP65 seal over time.
