Product Description

The BS207 is the structural and electrical foundation of the Bachmann M1 automation system, serving as a passive backplane that provides both high-speed internal bus connectivity and power distribution for installed CPU and I/O modules. Designed for long-term mechanical stability, the BS207 maintains secure electrical contact across all module slots, even in high-vibration industrial environments.

As a fully passive component with no active electronics, the BS207 significantly enhances overall system reliability and MTBF, making it an essential element in mission-critical control cabinets.

System Role and Deployment

The BS207 is a mandatory component in any M1-based control system. It defines the mechanical layout of the rack and provides the interlocking interface that prevents module movement during operation or transport.

Typical deployment environments include:

  • Wind turbine nacelles

  • Marine engine control rooms

  • Power generation and heavy industrial cabinets

Its passive design eliminates common failure points associated with active backplanes, ensuring stable long-term operation under continuous vibration and thermal cycling.


Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Does the BS207 require a separate power connection?
A: No. The BS207 is fully passive. Power is distributed through the backplane once a CPU or power supply module is installed.

Q: Can multiple BS207 base plates be combined to extend a rack?
A: M1 systems typically use a single base plate sized for the required number of slots. For larger systems, select the appropriate base plate variant (e.g., 2-, 5-, 7-, or 10-slot) to match the module count.
