The BA386 provides a bright flashing warning signal in a plant or processing area where ambient noise levels may drown out an audible alarm. It is significantly less expensive than traditional Xenon devices, yet has a similar light output and flashes more rapidly – making it more immediately noticeable. Available in five colors to enable multi-stage alarm level protocols. Factory Mutual and ATEX intrinsic safety certification enable it to be used in virtually any classified hazardous location.

Factory Mutual, ATEX and IECEx intrinsic safety certification enable it to be used in virtually any classified hazardous location.

The BA386S steady state beacon produces a continuous status indication, when a flashing warning is not required, and is available with a red, amber, green, blue or white models.

Can be used in conjunction with a BR385 alarm sounder using a single galvanically isolated barrier. The BA386 beacon includes terminals to power the sounder, and for an external push button to silence the sounder but may only be used for ATEX systems. The silence time is adjustable from 1 to 30 minutes. A free combination kit to combine the two units is an available option when ordering.

Supported by a three year guarantee.

IS Isolator Recommendations

BA386 Beacon IS Isolator Recommendations

The BA386 Beacon requires a single intrinsic safety barrier with safety/entity parameters not exceeding the following values: Uo/Voc=28V, Io/Isc=110mA, Po/Po=800mW. Suitable barrier: GMI D1048S / D1049S / D5048S / D5049S using output “B” terminals in each case.

BA386 Beacon & BR385 Sounder IS Isolator Recommendations

Option 1 – Mutual Two-Wire Connection:

The BA386 Beacon & BR385 Sounder Combination may be powered from a single intrinsic safety barrier providing 16VDC @ 35mA and with safety/entity parameters not exceeding the following values: Uo/Voc=28V, Io/Isc=93mA, Po/Po=660mW. Suitable barriers: P&F KFDO-SD2-Ex1.1045; MTL5025

Note that failure of the single barrier will negate both alarm notification modes.

Option 2 – High Integrity Four-Wire Connection, Beacon and Sounder Powered Separately:

The BA386 Beacon requires a single intrinsic safety barrier with safety/entity parameters not exceeding the following values: Uo/Voc=28V, Io/Isc=110mA, Po/Po=800mW. Suitable barrier: GMI D1048S / D1049S / D5048S / D5049S using output “B” terminals in each case.
The BR385 Sounder requires a single intrinsic safety barrier with safety/entity parameters not exceeding the following values: Uo/Voc=28V, Io/Isc=93mA, Po/Po=660mW. Suitable barrier: GMI D1048S / D1049S / D5048S / D5049S using output “C” terminals in each case.

Note that the failure of one barrier will leave the other alarm notification mode working.

Option 3 – Multiple Beacon & Sounder Combos, Use of Multi-Channel Barrier for Economy:
Suitable barrier: GMI D1042Q (quad channel) with each output separately powering either a beacon or a sounder. Under no circumstances may two barrier channel outputs be connected in parallel to power one beacon-sounder combination.

Note that while each beacon and sounder has its own dedicated barrier channel, a complete failure of the barrier module will negate all alarm notifications associated with it.
