The BMS-100 system is designed as a pilot maintainer to operate in Flare, Combustor, and Fire Tube applica-tions in the Oil and Gas Industry. The BMS-100 system utilizes the SureFire FTL-F series, FT-1-S, and FT-1-ST units to provide ignition.

The controller’s display is designed to operate in ambient temperatures from – 40⁰F to 131⁰F, and is coated for corrosion resistance. The unit is mounted in a NEMA 4X enclosure supplied with a UV resistant keypad. Each unit includes function indicator LED’s, and contains a status code chart that is printed on the overlay to pro-vide assistance in troubleshooting. The unit requires 12 VDC and is solar ready with a specific solar power ter-mination port. The controller also has been evaluated for pollution degree 2.

This apparatus is suitable for use in Class 1, Division 2, Groups C and D, or unclassified locations.

The BMS-100 detects a flame utilizing the igniter or thermocouple as the flame sensing device. Once the pilot flame makes contact with the igniter or thermocouple, a signal is sent to the BMS-100 and the unit registers a flame. The BMS-100 also provides 2nd stage solenoid and actuator valve timing control after flame is proven.

The BMS-100 also comes with an adder daughter board that allows 4-20mA input and high temperature safety shutdown. Plus a USB data logging port to log pilot flame with real time and date stamp.

The BMS-100 contains relighting capability, providing the flare, combustor and fire tube application with more opportunity to re-ignite the fuel gas.

Every SureFire system must pass complete factory QA/QC inspections before shipment.

Also available are control solenoid valve, Actuator valve, Standby Pressure Switches and FT ignition unit.

We are dedicated to providing quality American made safety control systems for Combustor and Flare Appli-cations. The system has been developed through thousands of hours of critical design, engineering, and field testing.

furnishing of service for maintenance or problems arising from the foregoing causes. No

claims for labor, installation, removal, transportation, or other expenses will be recognized.

Notwithstanding any stipulation of the purchaser to the contrary, all other obligations,

representations, warranties and conditions, express or implied, statutory or otherwise,

including any implied warranties or conditions of merchantability, quality or fitness are

hereby excluded and, SureFire shall not be liable for any loss, cost or damages, of any kind

whatsoever, whether consequential, indirect, special or otherwise, arising out of or in

Enclosure The SureFire BMS-100 system uses a polycarbonate NEMA 4X Enclosure to house the circuit board. The Graphic overlay, with a membrane keypad, is mounted on the exterior of the enclosure.

The NEMA 4X enclosure provides a high level of protection from harsh outdoor elements:

Windblown Dust Protection

Water Damage Protection - Rain, Sleet, Snow, Splashing and Direct Water Contact

Corrosion Protection

External Formation of Ice Protection

The Enclosure is IP66 certified, meaning it has been tested to the following:

Dust tight, no ingress of dust; complete protection against contact

Water projected in powerful water jets (12.5mm nozzle) against the enclosure from any direction shall have no harmful effects.

WARNING:

When drilling holes in the enclosure, ensure IP66 fittings are used to maintain the IP66 standard. Failure to use IP66 standard fittings nullifies the IP66 certification.

How to attach Daughter Board on to the BMS-100: 1. There are 4 standoffs on the Daughter Board that helps the Daughter Board mount to the BMS-100. As

shown in the picture below, Fig. 1.

2. Make sure when attaching Daughter Board to BMS-100, the “J4” connection faces towards and aligns with the connector on the BMS-100.

3. Place the Daughter Board on to the BMS-100 and make sure all 4 standoffs align with the holes on the BMS-100 board. Press Daughter Board down until it clicks into place. As shown in the picture below, Fig. 2.

4-20mA Input Dip Switch Settings

Warning: Remove power from the system when selecting dip switch setting.

NOTE: The 4-20mA input will control the actuator valve only after flame is proven.

There are 4 pre-defined settings for 4-20mA input, which controls the actuator valve to open and close. The table below shows the 4 different settings that can be selected. Choose the pressure setting desired and turn ON the switch that corresponds with the pressure setting.

Example: To set up Switch 1 setting, put switch 1 to the ON position and make sure all other switches stay in the OFF position. At this setting, when the transducer detects 1.5oz of pressure, the system will turn ON the actuator valve to the open position and keep the valve open until the transducer detects 0.5oz of pres-sure. Once the transducer detects the pressure at 0.5oz or below, the system will close the actuator valve.
