Lifesafety Power FPO150-B1502D8PM8NLCE6M/P8-A 150W Managed Power Supply with 8 Dual-Bus Outputs
Overview
The FPO150-B1502D8PM8NLCE6M/P8-A is a 150W managed power supply designed to distribute DC power across multiple security endpoints in mid-scale installations. It operates at 12VDC 12A or 24VDC 6A, with eight separate output channels—each independently fused at 3A and class 2 power limited to 2.5A per output. Each output is selectable to either Bus 1 or Bus 2, allowing logical separation of powered device groups without additional wiring harnesses.
Deployment Fit
This unit addresses power infrastructure challenges in installations with 6–12 managed IP cameras, access readers, sensors, or auxiliary controls. The dual-bus architecture suits projects requiring circuit isolation (e.g., entrance readers on Bus 1, interior sensors on Bus 2) or staged commissioning where device groups power up independently. The E6 enclosure (30H × 23W × 6.5D inches) mounts in standard racks or wall-mount configurations typical of small-to-medium security closets.
Compatibility
Verify compatibility by confirming your powered devices accept 12VDC or 24VDC at ≤2.5A per unit. The eight outputs support any combination of voltage-matched loads—no mixed 12V/24V operation per bus. Output fusing at 3A per channel protects against short circuits on individual branches without affecting sibling outputs. Bus selection is field-configurable; confirm wiring plan before installation to avoid cross-voltage hazards.
Installation Notes
The FPO150 draws power from a separate AC input supply (not specified in this component). Verify input voltage availability and breaker sizing at your panel before mounting. Eight fused outputs each require terminated positive and negative leads; plan wire gauge to match the 2.5A per-output limit (typically 18 AWG or larger). Bus selection requires internal jumper configuration—document your bus assignment before closing the enclosure for future troubleshooting reference.
