Intended Use
The BCG450-SD and BCG450-SP gauges have been de-
signed for vacuum measurement of gases in the pressure
range 5×10
-10
… 1500 mbar.
They must not be used for measuring flammable or combus-
tible gases in mixtures containing oxidants (e.g. atmospheric
oxygen) within the explosion range.

BCG450-SD
General Information
The BCG450-SD gauge has a fieldbus interface that
conforms to the DeviceNet standard (
→ [8]).
Via this interface, the following and further data are
exchanged in the standardized DeviceNet Protocol
(
→ [3], [8]):
• Pressure reading
• Pressure unit (mbar, Torr, Pa)
• Degas function
• Status and error messages
Two adjustable switching functions are integrated in the
gauge. With the built-in atmosphere switching function an
atmospheric pressure thresold can be programmed
(
→ [2]). The corresponding relay contacts are available at
the sensor cable connector.
The basic sensor and sensor electronics of the BCG450-SD
type are the same as in the standard BCG450 (
→ [1], [2]).

Supply Voltages
Supply voltage at the sensor
connector, Pin 8
+24 VDC (+20 … +28 V)
Power consumption
<20 W
DeviceNet operation requires an additional,
separate power supply.
DANGER
The gauge may only be connected to power
supplies, instruments or control devices that
conform to the requirements of a grounded pro-
tective extra-low voltage (SELV). The connection
to the gauge has to be fused.
Supply voltage at the DeviceNet
connector, Pin 2
+24 VDC (+11 … +25 V)
Power consumption
<2 W
The gauge is protected from reversed polarity of the supply
voltage.
