Lifesafety Power FPO150/250-2C83D8PE8M2/T16-B Dual-Output Access Control Power Supply
Overview
The FPO150/250-2C83D8PE8M2/T16-B is a pre-wired 400W commercial power supply designed for access control and integrated security systems requiring dual fixed-voltage outputs. It delivers 12A at 12VDC and 10A at 24VDC simultaneously — sufficient to power multiple readers, controllers, lock actuators, and auxiliary devices from a single enclosure. The Mercury series configuration includes 16 dedicated output channels with field-wired leads, reducing on-site assembly time and integration labor on larger installations.
Compatibility
This supply integrates into Lifesafety Power's FPO-series access control and security distribution systems. The 16-output channel design (16DR designation) accommodates readers, strike controllers, and auxiliary modules typical in enterprise access control deployments. Consult the detailed product datasheet or your system integrator for exact module compatibility within your access control platform.
Power Delivery and System Design
The dual 12/24V output architecture allows independent circuits for equipment with different voltage requirements — a common constraint in mixed-technology access control systems. The 12A/12V branch handles higher current loads (such as mag locks or solenoid actuators), while the 24V branch powers logic circuits and readers. 400W total capacity means real-world sizing requires load calculation: map each connected device's amperage at nominal voltage, sum per branch, and verify neither exceeds the rated current. Pre-wired leads (Panduit 1502/MR52 cabling per evidence) eliminate custom harness build time on field deployment.
Installation and Mounting
Confirm 16-channel wiring layout and terminal assignments with your system documentation before commissioning. This supply is intended for indoor enclosure or cabinet mounting as part of a larger access control or security distribution frame.
