8 Channel Bilge controller Monitor/Control up to 8 bilges from one location. 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. Supply Voltage: 12 ~ 32 Volts DC (Auto sensing) | Quiescent Current: 26 Milliamps (with backlight off) | Backlight Reverse polarity protected | Network cable length=1000m | Voltage & EMI Protected Programmed Data Retention: 50 years (without power) 8 Channel Bilge Controller SYSTEM OVERVIEW The BC-8000 Bilge Controller has been developed for intelligent intervention and controlling pumps in up to It is a network system consisting of the BC-8000 Master Display Unit and up to eight I/O Units located in bilge compartments. In addition as an option, the RB-800 Remote Display Unit may be added to provide remote bilge status anywhere on the vessel. All devices are interconnected by a 2-wire network cable similar to that used for telephone installations. The Master Display Unit (MDU) controls communication with all attached I/O Units and provides monitoring of all bilge areas from a central location. System components may be located anywhere on the network cable and the cable may be up to 1000 meters in length. These features are unique to the BC-8000. They provide maximum flexibility to locate components on-board the vessel while minimising wiring costs. Builders and retrofitters can now offer reasonably priced systems, while providing boat owners with outstanding visibility into conditions in their bilge areas, allowing a variety of control options under both normal and off-normal conditions. 2 WIRE NETWORK (STANDARD TELEPHONE WIRE) MAXIMUM LENGTH 1000m LOCAL BILGE AREA PUMP CONTROL PUMP OUTPUT FLOAT LOCAL BILGE AREA FLOAT SWITCHES REMOTE DISPLAY ORDER INFORMATION PART NUMBER: 4720096 IF-100 NETWORK INTERFACE MODULE PRODUCT DESCRIPTION: EIGHT-CHANNEL BILGE CONTROLLER BILGE CONTROL MODULE (NO PUMP OUT) BILGE CONTROL MODULE (PUMP OUT) REMOTE DISPLAY 'SPECIFICATIONS SUBJECT TO CHANGE WITHOUT NOTICE.
