Control Unit from 1 to 4 Conventional sensors BX444-Mc
The BX444-Mc control unit has been designed and built according to European regulations to flexibly detect the
presence of toxic and/or explosive gas and OXYGEN, through the connection of 4 remote probes.
A microprocessor is used to create a complete surveillance and control system with maximum flexibility. Thanks to this
and its other features BX444-Mc is suitable for civil use, industrial use and small underground car parks.
The BX444-M control unit has three danger levels:
st
st
1
LEVEL, 1
Alarm. This was set to 8 % of L.E.L. (120ppm)
nd
nd
2
LEVEL, 2
Alarm. This was set at 13% of L.E.L. (200ppm)
rd
3
LEVEL, Main Alarm. This was set at 20 % of L.E.L. (300ppm)
For oxygen the centrol unit BX444-Mc presents three levels of danger which are:
1st Pre-Alarm. Both in deficiency and excess of Oxygen.
2nd Pre-alarm. Both in deficiency and excess of Oxygen.
Main alarm. Both in deficiency and excess.
To facilitate event readings, the control unit has a front panel with 4 LEDs indicating which probe is currently being
monitored in rotation, and a display showing the gas concentration measured.
Other technical features make this control unit extremely versatile and reliable; for example, by using a series of micro-
switches it is possible to:
Select or disable the probe when not installed or faulty;
Select the type of gas to be detected (toxic or explosive);
Choose the relay functioning mode (pulsed or continuous);
Choose to enable or disable of the intrinsic safety.
The BX444-Mc has the prerequisite to be able to test "TEST" in two different ways:
1) System Test TEST. Pressing the TEST button tests the entire system, including the relays and accessories connected
to it.
2) Maintenance TEST. With special arrangements (see page 8) you can enable the function of:
Exclusion of the general alarm relay for a maximum duration of 60 minutes.
The IP44 external structure was designed for installations on walls, or on electrical panels by means of special brackets.
In addition to the alarm signal light, it is fitted with an internal buzzer.
Important: Assembly / maintenance of the appliance must be carried out by qualified personnel and in
accordance with applicable laws and regulations.
The manufacturer assumes no responsibility for the use of products that have to comply with particular
environmental and / or installation standards.
Important note
Before connecting the equipment, it is recommended that you read the instruction manual carefully and keep
it for future reference. It is also recommended to perform the electrical connections correctly as per enclosed
drawings, observing the instructions and the Standards.

  • Page 5 The letters ppm means when the connected probe detects Toxic gas. The letters LEL means when the connected probe detects Explosive gas. d) The timer symbol means when the BX444-Mc is being the Warm up and displays the countdown. Description of Display The BX444Mc is equipped with a display backlight color to facilitate the recognition of the state of the probe monitored.
  • Page 6 Electrical Connections WARNING. Before connecting to the mains power, ensure the voltage is correct. Carefully follow the instructions and the connections according to Regulations in force, keeping in mind that the signal cables should be laid separate from the power cables. An automatic cut-off switch (appropriately identified as devicesectioning of the detector) should be incorporated in the electrical system, adequatelylocated and easily accessible.
  • Page 7 Direct connection of 12VDC solenoid valves or sirens to the BX444-Mc is not permitted. An external power unit must always be used. The BX444-Mc gives a max current of 100mA Control unit power supply and connection of one solenoid valve with sirens to 12 VDC trough an alternative source and recharge battery.
  • Page 8 Zo nes . You can connect 4 probes to the BX444-Mc. The control unit is tested with the probes connected In some installations, you may need only one probe. In this case we will proceed to disable a probe, to do this select the switch of the probe (zone) concerned.
  • Page 9 Components and Commands continue Selection of the type of gas monitored by each probe The BX444-Mc if fitted with four micro-switches in order to select the type of gas that the connected probes should monitor. The LEL reading is obtained by shifting the switch to ON.
  • Page 10 The sensors must be selected with an IP degree depending on the area to be controlled (Kitchens, Boiler Rooms, Laboratory, etc.) by selecting one of the probes from Beinat from IP30 to ATEX. see page 3 Position of the detection sensors You can connect many types of remote sensors to this unit.
