Lifesafety Power FPO150/250-2C8P3D8PE6M1/P16-A Access Control Power Supply with 16-Door Lock Relay Outputs
Overview
The FPO150/250-2C8P3D8PE6M1/P16-A is a dual-voltage access control power supply designed to provision and control electromagnetic and fail-safe locks across multi-door installations. It delivers either 150W at 12VDC (12A) or 250W at 24VDC (10A) depending on voltage selection, accommodating installations where lock power requirements or distance-run losses dictate higher voltage delivery. The 16 relay lock control outputs—each rated 2.5A class 2 power-limited—support individual failsafe or failsecure configuration per output, enabling flexible lock behavior management (instant release on alarm, sustained locking on power loss, etc.). This architecture is essential in warehouses, secure storage facilities, and multi-tenant buildings where per-door lock state must be independently managed by an access control panel or integration platform.
Key Specifications
- Dual Output Rating: 150W/12V 12A or 250W/24V 10A—choose 12V for short runs and legacy lock infrastructure; select 24V to reduce wire gauge and voltage drop over longer cable distances.
- 16 Relay Lock Outputs: Each output selectable for failsafe (lock releases on power loss) or failsecure (lock stays locked)—critical for life-safety and security zoning compliance.
- 24VDC Auxiliary Outputs: 8 additional class 2 power-limited outputs assignable to Bus1 or Bus2, supporting supervision sensors, magnetic switches, or request-to-exit devices without consuming main lock budget.
- Enclosure Form Factor: E6 size (30H × 23W × 6.5D inches) with Mercury back plate and door mount kit—fits standard electrical cabinets and DIN rail frames common to access control installations.
- Board Configuration: Mercury MR52 / EP1502 board(s) provide relay switching and supervision logic integration.
Installation Notes
Verify that your access control panel or lock controller supports either 12V or 24V relay input before selecting voltage. Class 2 power limits (2.5A per output) mean this supply cannot directly power high-current solenoid coils; confirm lock coil current ratings do not exceed 2.5A per channel or use external relay buffers. Enclosure mounting requires standard electrical cabinet space; confirm door swing clearance for cabinet access. All outputs are individually selectable—pre-configure failsafe/failsecure state and bus assignment before installation to avoid field rewiring.
