Lifesafety Power FPO150/250-2C83D8PE4M1 Mercury ProWire DV Power Supply
Overview
The FPO150/250-2C83D8PE4M1 is a dual-voltage power supply engineered for access control, surveillance, and life safety systems requiring simultaneous 12VDC and 24VDC distribution. The 12A/12V output and 10A/24V output support mixed 12V solenoids, card readers, and IP cameras from a single mounted unit. Twenty-four auxiliary outputs enable expansion across remote PoE injectors, proximity readers, and field panels without daisy-chaining. Sixteen lock supervisory channels monitor door state and alarm conditions in real time — critical for integrated access-and-surveillance architectures where door bypass or forced entry triggers camera recording or alerting.
Compatibility
This supply integrates into multi-floor and multi-zone deployments where a PoE switch requires auxiliary 24V distribution for card readers, gate operators, or motorized locks on the same circuit. The Mercury ProWire DV form factor fits standard electrical enclosures and mounts alongside existing Lifesafety power infrastructure. Verify your access control panel, card reader, and lock voltage requirements before provisioning — the dual output eliminates the need for two separate supplies on mixed 12V/24V systems.
Installation Notes
The E4M1 enclosure houses both outputs in a DIN-rail-mountable chassis. Supervision and auxiliary outputs require terminal block wiring; wire gauge and breaker sizing depend on connected load amperage. Consult the equipment manual for exact voltage tolerance, ripple specification, and maximum run distances to remote readers or solenoids. All outputs source from a single transformer — simultaneous draw from both 12V and 24V rails reduces available current per output. Fused channels protect against short-circuit conditions on individual loads.
