Product details

What the Conformal Coating Changes

Compared to the standard BMECRD0100, the BMECRD0100C adds protective treatment against gas resistant class Gx (ISA S71.04), dust and sand class 3S4, salt level 2, and mold/fungal spore class 3B2 per IEC 60721-3-3. If your existing panel was wired for BMECRD0100, the BMECRD0100C fits the same rack, same screw pattern, same Ethernet cabling — no rewiring required. Order the C-suffix only when the environmental class demands it; otherwise the uncoated variant may suffice.

Compliance and Standards Coverage

CE marked, compliant with low voltage (2014/35/EU), EMC (2014/30/EU), and ATEX (2014/34/EU) directives. Listed standards include EN/IEC 61131-2, EN/IEC 61010-2-201, UL 61010-2-201, CSA C22.2 No 61010‑2‑201, IACS, EN/IEC 61000-6-5 (interface type 1 and 2), EN/IEC 61850-3 (location G), EN/IEC 60079-0, UL 121201, and CSA C22.2 No 213. SoftdPAC required for firmware operation.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between BMECRD0100C and BMECRD0100?

The BMECRD0100C is the conformal-coated variant of BMECRD0100. It adds protective treatment for gas, dust, salt, and fungal environments while maintaining the same dimensions, mounting, and electrical interface. For standard indoor environments the uncoated version may be suitable, but the C-suffix is specified when harsh environmental class (ISA S71.04 or IEC 60721-3-3) is required.

What are the physical dimensions of BMECRD0100C?

Depth is 5.2 in (131 mm), width is 2.5 in (64 mm), height is 5.2 in (131 mm). It is a double-format module that mounts on the X80 rack.

What compliance documentation does Schneider provide for this module?

The module carries CE marking and is covered under low-voltage, EMC, and ATEX directives. Standards include EN/IEC 61131-2, EN/IEC 61010-2-201, UL 61010-2-201, CSA C22.2 No 61010‑2‑201, IACS, EN/IEC 61000-6-5, EN/IEC 61850-3, EN/IEC 60079-0, UL 121201, and CSA C22.2 No 213. Gas, dust, sand, salt, and fungal resistance specs are per ISA S71.04 and IEC 60721-3-3.
