Lifesafety Power FPO150-B100C8D8PE6H/P8-C 150W Power Supply with Relay Control Outputs
Overview
The FPO150-B100C8D8PE6H/P8-C is a 150W regulated power supply designed for access control and facility security installations requiring multiple synchronized outputs. It delivers either 12A at 12VDC or 6A at 24VDC from a single transformer, with a dedicated 12V secondary for auxiliary circuits. The supply supports failsafe and failsecure relay lock control — critical for sites where door locks must default to a known state during power loss or system fault.
Output Architecture
8 relay lock control outputs: Each fused at 3A and independently selectable for failsafe (FAI) or failsecure operation. This isolation prevents a single lock failure from affecting others and simplifies troubleshooting on multi-door systems. 8 DC auxiliary outputs: Class 2 power-limited at 2.5A per output, selectable per output for Bus1 or Bus2 distribution. Enables distributed signaling across multiple reader circuits without additional power modules. Adjustable secondary: 5–18VDC output at 4A maximum allows integration with third-party sensors, strobes, or badge readers operating at non-standard voltages — eliminates the need for additional supply modules in mixed-voltage deployments.
Integration Considerations
Class 2 power-limited design reduces wiring gauge requirements and simplifies conduit routing on new builds. The modular relay/auxiliary split lets installers assign outputs to specific door zones or reader stations without rewiring. Requires standard 2-pole breaker protection on main input. Include this supply in your load calculations when planning circuits for PoE switch deployments that share facility power infrastructure, particularly in warehouses or large open facilities where centralized power management reduces equipment sprawl.
When to Choose Differently
If your deployment requires battery backup supervision or UPS integration, confirm before ordering — evidence does not confirm built-in battery charging or monitoring capability. For single-door or small reader installations, a compact desktop supply may reduce panel clutter. Verify relay contact ratings against your specific lock solenoid draw; oversizing solenoids beyond 3A per output requires external contactors.
