Lifesafety Power FPO150/150-2C8P2D8PE4 16-Lock 16-Auxiliary Power Distribution
Overview
The Lifesafety Power FPO150/150-2C8P2D8PE4 is a 150W power distribution enclosure designed to feed door locks and auxiliary devices in access control systems. It supplies 16 dedicated lock circuits (class 2 power-limited at 2.5A per output) and 16 auxiliary output circuits, available in 12V/12A or 24V/6A configurations. The E4 enclosure rating handles standard indoor commercial environments. This unit solves the recurring problem in multi-door access control installations: distributing power cleanly to magnets, strikes, and ancillary devices without running individual runs back to the main panel or straining a single power supply.
Compatibility
The FPO150/150-2C8P2D8PE4 is a standalone power distribution module. It integrates with access control systems that require distributed power for electric locks, electromagnetic strikes, and auxiliary relays — typical in enterprises using systems from Honeywell, Salto, Assa Abloy, Lenel, or generic ONVIF/networked access control architectures. It does not require a specific camera, NVR, or switch; instead, it receives power from an existing UPS or mains supply and distributes managed, limited power to door hardware throughout a facility. Confirm voltage and current draw of your locks and auxiliary loads before deployment — the unit's per-output 2.5A limit means high-draw devices (certain electromagnetic frames rated above 2.5A) will require parallel outputs or an external boost supply.
Installation Notes
Mount the E4 enclosure to a wall or DIN rail in a controlled-access electrical closet or panel room — not in an uncontrolled public space. Connect incoming mains or UPS power to the main terminals; verify polarity (positive/negative or 24V supply wiring). Each of the 16 lock and 16 auxiliary outputs terminates in individual power-limited terminals rated at 2.5A. Use appropriately gauged cabling for your chosen voltage (12V or 24V); undersized wire will cause voltage sag at remote locks, delaying release or causing nuisance failures. Class 2 power-limited design means the unit itself limits fault current, removing the need for external current-limiting fuses on each output — a significant simplification in large installations. Ensure the surrounding electrical panel or UPS can sustain the full 150W draw under simultaneous activation of multiple locks.
