Lifesafety Power FPO150/250-2C8P4D8PE8M Supervised Power Supply
The FPO150/250-2C8P4D8PE8M is a dual-output supervised power supply designed for fire alarm, access control, and security system integration where circuit supervision and redundancy are mandatory. It delivers either 12VDC at 2.5A or 24VDC at 1.5A from a single unit, eliminating the need to stock separate SKUs for different voltage requirements across a mixed install base.
Core Capabilities
This unit provides eight independently supervised outputs — each monitored for open-circuit and short-circuit faults. Supervised delivery is critical in life-safety applications: any break or short on a monitored circuit triggers an alarm signal back to the control panel, ensuring that a failed wire harness or tampered connection never goes undetected. The FPO150/250 supports this topology natively without additional relay modules.
Compatibility
Integrates with Lifesafety Power control panels and any third-party fire alarm or security system that accepts supervised 12VDC or 24VDC inputs. Verify your panel's supervision protocol (Class A or Class B looping) before deployment — the unit supports standard DC supervision methods used across the industry.
Installation Notes
Mount in a climate-controlled enclosure or cabinet; the FPO150/250 is not rated for outdoor installation. Provide adequate clearance for terminal access and heat dissipation. Wire each supervised output through the panel's input module using twisted-pair shielded cable to minimize supervision signal noise. Confirm voltage selection (12V or 24V) before connecting the load — the unit does not auto-detect and must be factory-configured or field-jumpered per documentation.
