CHAPTER 1. INTRODUCTION
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
The BNC™ MODEL 960 is a member of the Model 960™ AM area monitoring system
based on a GM sensor. It provides radiation dose rates in a convenient form factor with
large display LCD panel. It is ideal for security and radiation monitoring in the laboratory,
hospitals, isotope production facilities and other applications requiring remote, real-time
24/7 radiation monitoring. The unit is suitable for both on wall or flush wall installation.
BNC™ AM members are based on Ethernet networking architecture and data management
protocols that acquire data from multiple units generating local alarms and providing central
command with comprehensive oversight and actionable alarm information.

INSTALLATION
BNC™ MODEL 960 is pre-configured and fully tested at the factory before being shipped.
Therefore, it is ready to operate by simply connecting the power and turn the switch on.
Figure 4 shows location of ports, keypad, display and alarm LEDs.
Figure 4. BNC™ MODEL 960 label
BNC™ MODEL 960 supports two power options. I.e., PoE (power of Ethernet) or DC.
Note: In case of using an external strobe/horn, PoE is not supported. Only DC power
option works.
Note: In case of PoE power option, make sure to use a PoE supporting hub.
Note: In case of “wall flush” installation, an in-wall mounting bracket and a cover are
provided. Installation example is shown in figure 5.
