Questions and answers about the BLO-Line®

Non-combustible monitors - certified according to fire protection class A1

To comply with fire protection class A1 according to DIN EN13501-1, this monitor must be mounted directly and flat on a wall so that flames cannot get behind the monitor in the event of a fire.

To comply with fire protection class A1 according to DIN EN13501-1, this monitor must be mounted directly and flat on a wall so that flames cannot get behind the monitor in the event of a fire.

The cable duct connection that protrudes from the monitor has a length of 100.5 mm and is used to connect a fire-proof cable duct. The cable duct is installed right up to the monitor via the connection on the monitor.

The monitor is mounted flush to a wall and has no slots or openings when mounted. It can be assumed that it will achieve protection class IP 40 or higher when installed.

The monitors have a robust metal housing and a 6.5 mm (with touch) or 7 mm (without touch) thick fire protection glass, so that the monitors are protected against rough external influences. Furthermore, they are each protected against unintentional unhooking by two safety screws each.

For the devices with IQ and IoT solution, a WLAN or LTE stick can optionally be plugged into one of the existing USB interfaces.

The monitors are protected against theft by safety screws, so that it is not possible to remove the monitors from the wall mount without big effort.

A remote control is optionally available for the versions with PME.

The device has no increased IP protection and can therefore not be hung outdoors.

The BLO-Line® A1 is supplied complete with a wall mount that allows the monitor to be flush with the wall. This wall mount only needs to be fixed, the monitor hung in and secured against theft with the security screws. This requires
little effort, comparable to the installation of a consumer TV.
With a fire protection enclosure, on the other hand, a large amount of work is required for the installation of a monitor. This is due to the complex assembly and installation of the various individual parts, some of which even have to be
glued together, the much higher weight of the monitor enclosure and, of course, the fact that a monitor with mounting must also be installed in the enclosure.

The BLO-Line® monitor series achieves fire protection class A1(non-flammable, no smoke emission, no burning dripping) according to DIN EN13501-1 while the POS-Line BLO monitors achieve fire protection class B-s1, d0 (flame-retardant,
no smoke emission and no burning dripping). The POS-Line BLO Monitors are equipped with a VESA mount. BLO-Line monitors can be mounted on a wall with a wall mount included in the delivery.
The POS-Line BLO monitors are available in sizes from 31.5“ to 54.6“. The BLO-Line® monitors are available in sizes from 24“ to 64.5“. A touch version is only available for the BLO-Line®. It is available in sizes from 24“ to 54.6“. Exclusively
for the BLO-Line® an integrated extinguishing capsule is optionally available. The POS-Line BLO monitors are available with our video card PME and with an integrated IQ Atom PC. The BLO-Line®
monitors are also available with our video card PME and integrated IQ Atom PC and furthermore with our IoT solution with Raspberry Compute Module and our VideoPoster.

The diameter of the holes for mounting the wall mount is 5 mm for sizes 24“ to 46“ and 9 mm for sizes 54.6“ and 64.5“. The customer must select a suitable mounting according to the construction of the wall.

Which cables can be put through the cable duct is at the decision of the customer.

The cable duct connection is always located on the bottom side of the monitors. The only exception is the version in 54.6 “. This can also be delivered with a cable duct connection on the top.

The BLO-Line® monitors can be opened from 24“ to 42“ from the bottom and from 46“ to 64.5“ from the top. More detailed information about the assembly can also be found in our assembly instructions, which can be found on our
homepage distec.de.

The fire resistance classes F30, F60, F90 are tested according to the previous German standard DIN4102. Here, the code letter F stands for walls, ceilings, but also fire protection glasses with shielding effect. The identification number
behind this code letter means that the component fulfils its function for at least 30 minutes, for example. Our devices are tested according to the European standard for building products DIN EN13501-1. Here the fire load is evaluated,
this means the fire behaviour, the smoke gas development and burning dripping.
This is a different test method in which it is not the functional integrity that is assessed, but the danger that the device poses in the event of a fire. We still use fire protection glass. With the BLO-Line® monitors without touch, this fulfills
class E30 (room closure) according to DIN EN13501-1 and with those with touch EW30 (room closure with additional radiation reduction).
