General Guidelines
Proper installation and use of the BECSys controller depends on the specific needs of the application. Read the manual
completely before starting the installation and ensure all guidelines and recommendations are followed. All components
should be mounted and the flow cell plumbing installed and pressure tested before wiring the controller. Ensure
compliance with all applicable plumbing and electrical codes during the installation as well.
Caution: The BECSys controller should be sealed while under operation. All IO, power cables, and unused
ports must be sealed using hardware rated NEMA4 or better. Damage to the controller caused by improper
Caution: The BECSys controller should not be installed where it is accessible to the public.
sealing of the enclosure is not covered under warranty.
Firmware Version
This manual was written for firmware v2.08 & v2.09. If you received newer firmware but did not receive a copy of the
manual covering that version of firmware, please contact your distributor.
Environmental Conditions
The BECSys3 is housed in a NEMA 4X (IP65) enclosure. It should not be used in explosive environments. The
BECSys3 should be mounted so that adequate ventilation is provided around the enclosure, preventing general
environmental specifications from being exceeded (see table below).
