The BC-8000 Controller provides an intelligent networked solution for the monitoring and control of up to eight bilge areas. The diagram (right) shows a typical system layout. The system consists of the BC-8000 display controller (as seen above) up to eight BC-100 or BC-100/P controllers and one (optional) RB-800 repeater displays. The system communicates via a 2-wire network cable with a maximum cable length of 1000 meters.
BC- 8000 DISPLAY CONTROLLER: Is a powerful bilge control system.
- Full control from one central location on your boat.
- Delay pump on and off time (programmable).
- Pump on alarm time (programmable).
- Visual status display for each bilge area showing pump status, low sensor status, last pump run time, number of pump runs, program & operate modes.
- Turn bilge pumps on/off manually or automatically
- Visual & audible alarm for any fault conditions eg, high water, low sensor fault, pump fault, time alarm.
- Two master modes of operation automatic or semi-automatic.
- Individual modes auto or manual.
- All bilge areas are name programmable giving location e.g. (Aft Port) (Engine Room) (Mid Ship Starboard).
BC-100 or BC-100/P I/O UNIT: Are controllers which manage the pump, relay, and high/low sensors.
- Automatically goes into stand alone mode if communication with the BC-8000 is lost giving normal operation if either the hi or low sensors turn on.
- Controls the pump and provides the input for the hi & low sensors.
- Pump output = 88 amps @ 12 vdc.
- Operates with any standard float switch or Smartswitch FS-2A.
- Alarm relay = 3 amp inductive.
- Supplied in two different models:
- HT-100/P features hi & low sensors, alarm relay, and pump output
- HT-100 features hi & low sensors and alarm relay
RD 800: This Remote Display is an optional extra and may be connected anywhere on the vessel for convenient
monitoring. |
