Installation Guide
BCM-0000-B Battery Controller Module
Safety Notes
NOTICE!
- Installation must only be carried out by authorized personnel.
- The BCM-0000-B can only be used with panel controllers FPA-1200-MPC and MPC-xx00-B with software versions from 2.1 onwards.
- The total current for all connected components, including the battery charge current, must not exceed 6 A.
- The 24 V switch outputs must not be connected in parallel.
- The batteries connected to BCM-0000-B must all be the same type and have the same electrical features.
- The length of the cable on the fault switch outputs must not exceed 3 meters (approx. 9.8 feet).
- The cables on the fault switch outputs must only be installed within the housing.
Functions
The module monitors the power supply for the complete panel and regulates battery charging as a function of time and temperature. The button has three functions, which are dependent on the status of the battery controller module:
- The four module LEDs light up as a confirmation and LED test each time the button is pressed.
- If the batteries have a voltage of between 18 V and 21 V, the battery loading procedure can be started manually. Please note that a power supply must be available.
- The 24 V switch outputs can be reset. The switch output is deactivated if a fault occurs.
Terminal assignment

Standby current calculation in accordance with EN 54-4
Formula (1) gives the maximum panel current required to provide a specific buffering time (Imax, Standby).
Formula (2) gives the maximum panel current with simultaneous consideration of the battery charge (Imax, A ).
According to formula (3), the required standby current of the panel (Ibom) is based on the smaller value of the two maximum current values of the panel.
Parameter:
- standby = buffering time in hour
- I Alarm = maximum alarm current (Imax)
- Catt = battery capacity in Ah
The following capacities are feasible:
- 24–26 Ah and 36–45 Ah for 2 batteries
- 48–52 Ah and 72–90 Ah for 4 batteries
