The CE Mark verifies that our products
meet the requirements of the current
EMC Directive.
Intended use
The Condition Monitoring Sensor (BCM) together with a
machine controller (such as a PLC) or an Edge gateway
together with an IO-Link master forms a condition
monitoring system. It is intended for temporary or
permanent use installed in a machine or system and used
in the industrial sector. Flawless function in accordance
with the specifications in the technical data is ensured only
when using original Balluff accessories. Use of any other
components will void the warranty.
Opening the BCM or non-approved use are not permitted
and will result in the loss of warranty and liability claims
against the manufacturer.
General safety notes
Installation
and
startup
may only be performed by
qualified personnel with basic electrical knowledge.
The
operator
is responsible for ensuring that local safety
regulations are observed.
In particular, the operator must take steps to ensure that a
defect in the BCM will not result in hazards to persons or
equipment.
If defects and unresolvable faults occur in the BCM, take it
out of service and secure against unauthorized use.

Dimensions and function
The BCM is an intelligent condition monitoring sensor. It is
used for acquiring condition information for a system or
machine and for monitoring trends. It cannot replace a
precision measurement system for determining condition.

Event triggered
The display duration for an event triggering is
extended by 10 s if a further event is triggered
during that time.
The Ping function makes it possible to identify the BCM via
an optical signal after it is connected to an IO-Link master.
