  • Page 3: Functional Modes

    2.0 MODES of operation The key switch on the front panel has 3 positions ‘AUTO’-‘MAN’-'OFF'. In ‘AUTO’ mode, the Be26A starts and stops the engine according to the programmed parameters. Be26A monitors the status of the Pressure Switch (section 12.0) and Remote Test switch (section 13.0).

  • Page 4: Front Panel Description

    2.3 OFF mode If the key-switch is in the ‘OFF’ position, all operations of Be26A are inhibited, and the engine does not start. Turn the key-switch to OFF to cancel the alarms and stop the engine. In OFF mode, it is possible to program the parameters (see section 6.0).

  • Page 5: Leds Indicators

    [uuu] Indicates the Pre-glow (see parameter [F.00] in the section 8.0) [12=] The BE26A detects a 12V battery on the power supply input (see section 5.11) [24=] The BE26A detects a 24V battery on the power supply input (see section 5.11)
  • Page 6 [I.0]. In NFPA-20 mode the engine does not shut JE1-2-3 down. See section 5.06 STARTING FAILURE indication. The alarm energises Out: if the BE26A fails to fire the engine in AUTO mode of [5.15],[6.6] and JC2/JB5 operation. See section 5.10 [7.15] JE1-2-3 ALARM 1 input (energised to ground).

  • Page 7: Terminal Description

    The section 15.0 shows the wiring diagram. The description of the terminals follows: POWER SUPPLY The BE26A should be connected to a Battery (or Batteries) according to the following: 12V BATTERY JI-3=12V PLUS, JI-2=MINUS (7-16Vdc) 24V BATTERY JI-1=24V PLUS, JI-2=MINUS (15-33Vdc)
  • Page 8 This input must be connected to an external sensing voltage relay able to detect the failure of the second set of battery. In case of failure of the battery set 2, the Be26A continues the cycle of attempts by using the first group of batteries.
  • Page 9 This input must be connected to a normally closed pressure switch. The Be26A triggers the alarm if the JF9 is grounded when the engine is running. The contact switch is by-passed by the parameter [2.10] (see section 8.0) during the starting sequence. The alarm is indicated by a red LED on the front panel (see section 3.07). The engine cannot be stopped in NFPA-20 mode.
  • Page 10 NOT USED JB10 +V BATTERY SUPPLY This terminal will be connected to the V+ supply of the BE26A (12Vdc or 24Vdc). A fuse of 500mA should be externally provided. D+ OUTPUT 12V This output provides current to supply the 12V Charger Alternator. Connect JM1 and JM3 together with the terminal D+/W.L.

  • Page 11: Alarm Description

    JM7 - JM8 - JM9: Not Used JM10 REMOTE TEST INPUT This input should be connected to an external switch in order to test the engine in AUTO mode. The BE26A will monitor the Remote Test as follows: NFPA-20 Mode:...
  • Page 12 5.04 BATTERY 1 - 2 FAILURE In case of failure of the battery set 1 or 2, the BE26A indicates the message [bt.1] and [bt.2] on the display. The BE26A does not shut down the engine. If the battery returns within the operating limits The Be26A removes the message from the display.
  • Page 13 5.11 LOW VOLTAGE POWER SUPPLY The BE26A is powerd by a DC source. When on, the BE26A detects the kind of source:12V or 24V. Push the 'UP' and 'DOWN' pushbuttons simultaneously to display the voltage. In case the voltage falls or rises above the following limits, the display will blink.

  • Page 14: Programming Instruction

    D) - press the STOP and UP (or DOWN) pushbuttons simultaneously to modify a parameter E) - turn the Key-Switch in MAN or AUTO mode: the BE26A will store the parameters; the message [SAV.] will appear on the display. If the voltage supply is <11V, the message [bAt.] will appear to indicate that it is not possible to save the parameters.

  • Page 16: Parameters Description

    Delay time before starting the engine:1 to 59 seconds or 1-99 minutes Delay time before stopping the engine: 1 to 59 seconds, 1-99 minutes or c.t. (no-stop mode), Low Oil Pressure and Temperature Alarms bypass timing (0 to 99 seconds) Energised to Stop solenoid:10 to 99 seconds Alarm output control:1 to 98 seconds or continuous mode ([ct.])

  • Page 17: Display Parameter

    Default: 03 attempts (E.P.F.M) 1 to 10 Number of automatic attempts during automatic start cycle (^) NOTE: it is not possible to modify these parameters if the BE26A is in NFPA-20 functional mode (terminal JM5 and JM6 not connected together)

  • Page 18: Starting Cycle

    9.0 Starting cycle For safety reasons, the BE26A supports two independent battery circuits. While performing several starting attempts, the BE26A switches from one battery system (from one crank motor) to another, so as not to exhaust one system too much.
  • Page 19 H) Connect the fuel solenoid. Turn the key to AUTO, and start the engine using the ENGINE TEST input. Check to see that the BE26A has disconnected the starter motor properly. NOTE: in fire-fighting application (NFPA-20), a speed sensitive relay should be connected to the JM4-5 input.

  • Page 20: Remote Test

    - If the input is grounded, the BE26A starts the engine immediately. - If the input is opened, the BE26A stops the engine immediately. - During the Engine Test period, the BE26A monitors the alarms according to the parameters [I.01] and [L.7] (see section 8.0).
