The direct measurements of the magnetocaloric effect (MCE) and the magnetization for R2Fe17 (R = Y, Tb, Dy) compounds are reported. The maximal values of the MCE for different R2Fe17 compounds are almost the same at the Curie temperature and are equal to 0.8 – 0.85 K at ΛH = 13.5 kOe. The field dependencies of the magnetization and MCE and the dependence of MCE via magnetization deviates from the classical regularities and describes by the thermodynamic theory attracting the higher terms. Obviously the occurrence of the mixed exchange interactions in these compounds leads to the requirement of consideration both thermal and local fluctuations of the exchange integrals near the magnetic transition temperature.
