Lifesafety Power FPO150/250-2C82D8E8A/P16-A 16DR E8A 400W Power Supply
Overview
The FPO150/250-2C82D8E8A/P16-A is a 400W redundant power supply purpose-built for access control and surveillance integration environments. It delivers 12A at 12V and 10A at 24V across 16 discrete relay outputs, making it the backbone for multi-door access control systems that also manage auxiliary loads—strobes, mag locks, and remote monitoring equipment. The 16DR (16 door relay) configuration handles two separate door control circuits simultaneously, and the dual 8DBC (8-pin Panduit) connectors streamline terminal block wiring on larger installations.
Compatibility
This supply integrates with access control panels and door controllers requiring dual-voltage output with redundant power paths. The 16-output architecture supports systems managing up to 16 independently controlled zones or doors. Wired via Panduit 8DBC connectors, it pairs with standard access control distribution modules and field panels using industrial-grade terminal blocks. Verify your panel's input voltage and current requirements match the 12V/24V dual-output configuration before installation.
Installation Notes
Mount in a protected enclosure; the supply itself is not field-weatherproof. Connect primary and backup power feeds to separate branch circuits to ensure true redundancy—a single breaker defeat negates the redundant design. Verify circuit breaker amperage on both feeds matches or exceeds the 12A/24V draw to prevent nuisance trips under full load. Route the Panduit connectors away from high-voltage cabling; maintain minimum 6 inches separation to avoid inductive coupling on low-voltage circuits.
