When a giant Asian based manufacturer discovered a problem with their pressure transmitters, Danfoss proved to be effective not only meeting their tight supply needs, but also helping to reduce their maintenance costs.
After experiencing the quality and reliability of the MBS1250, the customer is now in discussions regarding applications for the MBS1350.
Danfoss is well known in the Marine and Mobile Hydraulic sector globally, and has enjoyed a successful working relationship with the marine division of a giant manufacturer. When that manufacturer’s construction equipment division began to experience quality issues with their supplier, they once again turned to Danfoss.
The customer, a major force in the global mobile hydraulics industry, discovered that pressure transmitters from its current supplier were susceptible to water penetration in the sensor body. The weak connection between the cable connector and the sensor body was allowing leakage to destroy the electric board, and the product was also unable to deliver enough torque for their application.
The manufacturer looked at three different companies – including their long-time marine division supplier, Danfoss – to explore replacement options. Danfoss was able to quickly meet the customer’s tight delivery requirement with the highest quality pressure transmitter; when the testing phase was complete, the MBS1250 from Danfoss turned out to be the optimal solution.
The compact, heavy duty, MBS1250 pressure transmitter is designed for use in severe mobile hydraulic applications. The MBS1250 was the best option for the customer as its body molding provides superior water protection. The single, stainless steel body also allows for a higher fastening and mounting torque than the customer’s previous, welded pressure port sensors, and the MBS1250 is significantly lighter, reducing overall system weight and stress.
In keeping with industry demand, Danfoss MBS 1250 is designed to allow for better equipment monitoring from the operator’s controls; operators can easily see the status of the equipment through the sensor display. The MBS1250 also lights the brake and changes the mode to idle while the excavator is not in operation. This has the invaluable benefit of saving Danfoss customers energy and oil.
