<\/span>Design and function<\/span><\/h2>\nThe device consists of a probe and a display unit. Both are connected with each other via a cable. If an AdBlue\u00ae tank is filled at a service station, for example, the driver of the tank truck does not know when he or she is required to stop the filling process. This is where the use of the BC-2 overfill prevention device makes sense.<\/p>\n
The associated probe is installed via a free opening on the tank. As soon as the integrated sensor comes into contact with the medium, the display unit emits an acoustic and visual alarm<\/strong>. The driver of the tank truck now knows that he or she is required to stop the filling process. We provide a description for an even more convenient solution with the BC-2 overfill prevention device for the driver of the tank truck here<\/a>.<\/p>\n![\"Filling](\"https:\/\/www.gok-blog.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Ueberfuellsicherung-BC-2-GOK-Blog-1.jpg\" "\\"\\"")
<\/a>Filling by hand: the driver of the tank truck fills the AdBlue tank and stops as soon as the BC-2 overfill prevention device emits the acoustic and visual alarm.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\nNow to the question, though: what\u2019s new on the BC-2 overfill prevention device in comparison with its predecessor model, the BC-1?<\/p>\n
<\/span>New: quicker alarm analysis<\/span><\/h2>\nThe device isn\u2019t only able to display just one type of alarm, i.e. the contact of the sensor with the medium. There are two further scenarios in which the BC-2 emits an alarm:<\/p>\n
\n- If there is a short circuit<\/strong> in the cable between the display unit and the sensor.<\/li>\n
- If the cable between the display unit and the sensor is broken and\/or not connected properly<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
By looking at the LED, the operator can tell straight away which event has occurred and take action without having to spend a long time looking for the fault.<\/p>\n
<\/span>New: an (affordable) variant for everything<\/span><\/h2>\nDifferent variants of the overfill prevention device were previously available for different purposes. The new BC-2 overfill prevention device combines all the variants into one version and one housing. The new housing has a better feel and is optimised for users.<\/p>\n
Due to the fusion into one variant, operators no longer have to think about which version they require, and now pay considerably less<\/strong> if they want to install the device outdoors!<\/p>\nIt is naturally the case that the BC-2 overfill prevention device is also suitable for installation indoors. However, operators can also install it in weather-protected areas outdoors<\/strong>, as the device also has certification according to protection type IP54. It is therefore protected against damaging quantities of dust and splash water on all sides.<\/p>\n[av_horizontal_gallery ids=’10234,10232′ initial=” height=’50’ size=’no scaling’ gap=’large’ active=’enlarge’ control_layout=’av-control-default’ slider_navigation=’av-navigate-arrows av-navigate-dots’ nav_visibility_desktop=” nav_arrow_color=” nav_arrow_bg_color=” nav_dots_color=” nav_dot_active_color=” lightbox_arrow_color=” lightbox_arrow_bg_color=” transition_speed=” autoplay=’false’ interval=’5′ manual_stopper=’aviaTBmanual_stopper’ links=’active’ link_dest=” lightbox_text=” img_scrset=” lazy_loading=’disabled’ id=” custom_class=” template_class=” av_uid=’av-wuw8ko’ sc_version=’1.0′][\/av_horizontal_gallery]\n<\/span>New: symbols instead of language<\/span><\/h2>\nUnlike the previous version, the BC-2 overfill prevention device is not based on one specific language.
