Application / Description
The BSD-321/EX can be configured to interface
various types of detectors into the AutroSafe Inte-
grated Fire and Gas Detection System.
BSD-321/EX contains a protocol converter for the
specific type of detector to be interfaced. All events
such as alarms, prealarms and fault warnings are
transmitted to the AutroSafe Integrated Fire and Gas
Detection System.
Depending on the specific detector, analogue read-
ings of gas concentration, for example, are also
transmitted for trending and maintenance purposes.
The built-in short-circuit isolator of AUTROFIELDBUS
will, together with the ring topology, ensure that neither
a single short-circuit nor a wire break will cause loss of
functionality.
Furthermore, the BSD-321/EX provides optional
AUTROFIELDBUS earth fault detection.
The BSD-321/EX basic model has RS485 communi-
cation ports for interfacing field equipment.
There can be a maximum of 31 BSD-321/EX units on
each AUTROFIELDBUS ring.
