AutroSafe Controller - BC-320

Features
• Accommodates up to a maximum of 12 modules,
of which maximum six can be loop-driver modules
• Addressable electronic sounders can be con-
nected directly on the detector loop
• Capable of surface or flush mounting and for rack
mounting in standard 19’’ cabinets
• Designed to meet EN-54 requirements, and con-
forms to CE standards
• Complies to environmental conditions of IEC-721-
3-3 class 3k5
• Indicators for fault and power

Applications
The Controller, BC-320, serves as a connection unit
for the detector loop, alarm sounders, controls and
inputs.
