Honeywell BWTM Solo Technical Specifications

Honeywell BW™ Solo is:

 • The easiest single-gas detector to service, with no need to take it apart to replace sensors,

batteries and sensor filters. That means long life and low cost.

 • Complete with an extensive selection of sensor options. Count on comprehensive detection,

whether you’re monitoring for common or exotic hazards.

 • The first single-gas detector with the 1-Series sensor for CO, H2S, O2and CO2

 . That means high accuracy, lower costs and faster sensor response time for the gases you monitor most

often.

 • Compatible with IntelliDoX.

Save time and centralize data with automated bump testing, calibration and instrument management.

Use IntelliDoX docking stations with Honeywell SafetySuite Device Configurator software

to maintain and monitor your entire fleet from practically anywhere.

Unique User Experience

Taking the user experience to a whole new level

One System Solution

Honeywell Analytics’ one system solution to meet your safety requirements

Touchpoint  Plus provides a reliable safety solution for small-scale gas detection systems

across a wide range of applications and industries.

If you need to integrate your gas detection with a higher level management system,

the Modbus output option makes this straightforward.

As the heart of your gas detection system, Touchpoint Plus is designed to work with

Honeywell’s industry-leading gas detectors and drive actuators,

and audible and visual alarms to provide a complete end-to-end solution that you can configure as your

own.

Designed for Speed and Reliability

TouchpointTM Made of high-impact polymer plastic, Plus is versatile and durable.

It is dustproof and waterproof, and has been tested to withstand the toughest operating environments,

both indoors and out. So you can count on the Touchpoint Plus to stand up to

the challenges of industrial environments, from mechanical rooms to chemical plants.

Touchpoint Plus is supplied with pre-drilled and sealed cable entries and a unique tiered

internal arrangement providing ease of access to save installers time and money.

Remote Terminal Panels

Optional DIN rail mounted Remote Terminal Panels (RTPs)

are available for use with pre-wired cables to reduce installation

time and labor expense. Four types of RTPs are available:

 analog inputs, relay outputs, redundant I/O and other I/O modules.

Three cable lengths are also available to match hardware to installation variations.

Analog inputs RTPs include transmitter

shunt resistors and transmitter power terminals with individual circuit fuses.

The Relay Output RTP includes a fuse and power disconnect switch for each output.

All the three types of RTP panels also switch power to allow module removal and

installation under controller power. See page 36.

Terminal Blocks

20-screw Barrier style and Euro style terminal blocks are available

for use with all ControlEdge HC900 I/O Modules.

Red terminal blocks are used for high voltage connections

for added safety while black terminal blocks are used for low voltage connections.

A 36-terminal Euro style block is available with the 16 AI, the 8 and 16 AO

as well as the 32 DC DI and 32 DC DO module types.

Failsafe

All ControlEdge 900 Platform I/O modules support a user

specified failsafe value (analog) or state (digital) that the

module outputs or inputs will assume if communication

between the controller and the module is interrupted. Output

modules are also disabled if the controller fails to start.

Module diagnostics are not initiated if the control strategy

does not call for the inputs or outputs on the modules to execute.

Failsafe is restricted to de-energize in safety applications.

Overview

The Honeywell ControlEdge HC900 Controller is an

advanced loop and logic controller offering a modular design

sized to satisfy the control and data acquisition needs of a

wide range of process equipment.

Insert and Removal of I/O under Power

For ease of maintenance, the ControlEdge HC900 controller

supports removing and inserting I/O modules from the

module rack without removing power from the controller.

Each module is sensed for validity by the controller

and auto-configured on insertion.
