Pressure Transmitter DANFOSS MBS 4000 Series is a high-accuracy pressure transmitter designed for industrial applications where stable, dependable pressure measurement is essential—even in harsh operating environments. It supports both gauge (relative) and absolute pressure versions, with measuring ranges up to 0–400 bar, and provides a standard 4–20 mA output.
Pressure Transmitter DANFOSS MBS 4000 Series is a precision pressure transmitter engineered for use across a wide range of industrial sectors. It delivers reliable pressure readings even under demanding conditions, with options for both gauge (relative) and absolute measurement. The available measuring ranges cover everything from low-pressure applications to higher ranges commonly found in factories and general machinery.
A key advantage of this series is its robust, industrial-grade construction. The housing and all parts in contact with the media are manufactured from acid-resistant AISI 316L stainless steel, improving durability against both the environment and process fluids. Full digital compensation helps keep the output stable and consistent in real-world operation. In addition, the standard 4–20 mA signal is well suited to industrial control systems, offering strong noise immunity and dependable performance over long cable runs.
For plant control and monitoring systems, the DANFOSS MBS 4000 Series is often selected when users need a combination of high accuracy, ruggedness, and a broad measuring range—for example in hydraulic and pneumatic systems, pump and pipeline applications, utilities, and machinery exposed to vibration or varying temperatures. Depending on the model program, measuring ranges are available up to 0–400 bar.
