Project planning information
6 .9 Note on EC type-examination or CSA
and FM approval
Since EN 298 (1993) or NFPA 85 and NFPA 86
does
not describe all functions of the BCU 370, the opera-
tor is responsible for ensuring that all parameters and
functions are matched to the respective application.
6 .10 Contact fuses
The safety-related switching contacts on the BCU 370
(V1, V2, V3, Ignition, Controller enable, Open butterfly
valve, Close butterfly valve and Butterfly valve ignition)
are protected by an internal fuse (3.15 A, slow-acting).
This fuse cannot be replaced, since safe opening of
the contacts is not guaranteed following overload or a
short-circuit, e.g. due to a wiring fault. The BCU must be
returned to the manufacturer for repair.
6 .11 Installation
Recommended installation position: vertical (cable
glands pointing downwards).
Detach the upper section of the BCU, remove and screw
on lower section with four screws Ø 4 mm. Replace up-
per section and screw into place.
6 .12 Protective circuits
Connected control elements must be equipped with
protective circuits in accordance with the manufac-
turer’s instructions. This prevents high voltage peaks
which can cause malfunction of the BCU.
6 .13 BCSoft
Changes using BCSoft must be verified by scanning
the parameters using the Reset/Information button.
