Lifesafety Power FPO150/250-2D82M8NLCE8M2 Dual-Output Fused Power Distribution Supply
Overview
The FPO150/250-2D82M8NLCE8M2 is a configured dual-output power supply handling both 12VDC and 24VDC distribution in a single compact enclosure. Select 150W (12A at 12V, or 6A at 24V) or 250W (20A at 12V, or 10A at 24V) capacity depending on your endpoint load. This is purpose-built for security integrators provisioning distributed IP cameras, access readers, and auxiliary sensors across a site where mixed voltage rails are required and per-output fault isolation is non-negotiable.
Output Architecture
Eight DC auxiliary outputs, each independently fused at 3A, allow you to assign individual circuits to either Bus1 or Bus2—meaning each voltage rail operates independently and a short on one output doesn't cascade to others. The 8-output managed distribution module enforces this isolation and makes troubleshooting field faults straightforward: kill one fuse, leave the rest live. This is critical in multi-zone deployments where a single wiring fault or undersized load can't bring down an entire system.
Installation Context
Housed in a compact E8 enclosure (36H × 30W × 6.5D inches), the FPO150/250 mounts in standard 19-inch racks or wall-mounted cabinets. The form factor and fused output architecture make it suitable for headend installations, electrical closets, or utility rooms where power infrastructure must be dense and field-serviceable. Integrators deploying larger camera systems or mixed 12/24V architectures will find the dual-output flexibility and per-output fusing eliminates the need for external distribution blocks or secondary breaker panels.
When to Choose a Different Model
If your deployment requires battery backup (UPS functionality), seek a different model in the Lifesafety Power line with integrated standby capacity. If you need integrated PoE switching or higher single-output currents (>20A), a dedicated power supply paired with a managed PoE injector is a better path. This unit is output-distribution specialized—not a general-purpose charger or UPS substitute.
