Honeywell BCU 465 - Measurement Time T

BCU 460, BCU 465 · Edition 11.19 45
Valve proving system
6.1.5 Measurement time t
M
The sensitivity of the tightness control in the BCU can
be adjusted for each individual system by adapting the
measurement timet
M
. The longer the measurement
timet
M
, the greater the sensitivity of the tightness
control. The measurement time is set using parameter
A056 to a value between 3 and 3600s, see page101
(Measurement time for Vp1).
The required measurement time t
M
is calculated from:

Leakage rate
The BCU tightness control makes it possible to check
a specific leakage rate Q
L
. Within the European Union,
the maximum leakage rate Q
L
is 0.1% of the maximum
flow rate Q
