Lifesafety Power FPO250/250-2D8P4M8PNLCE4 500W Dual Voltage Power Supply
Overview
The Lifesafety Power FPO250/250-2D8P4M8PNLCE4 is a 500W dual voltage power supply rated for 120 VAC input, built to distribute power across access control, lock control, and surveillance infrastructure in multi-door commercial installations. With 32 managed lock outputs and 16 auxiliary outputs, this supply eliminates the need to cascade multiple smaller power supplies or manage tangled point-of-load regulation — a real constraint in warehouse, retail, and corporate security deployments where door density and electrical load concentration matter. The managed output architecture means each lock circuit can be monitored and controlled independently, critical when a single failed solenoid shouldn't cascade into loss of access control across an entire zone.
Compatibility
Designed for integration with multi-door access control systems, electric strike locks, magnetic locks, and auxiliary loads common in commercial security installations. Works with standard 120 VAC facility power; verify your electrical panel can supply 500W continuous current draw without exceeding breaker capacity or interfering with other branch circuits. The managed lock output architecture integrates with legacy and modern access control panels that support distributed power switching — consult your access control documentation to confirm relay/solenoid voltage and current draw per circuit.
Installation Notes
Mount in a secure, temperature-controlled enclosure (electrical closet, server room, or dedicated cabinet) — do not expose to moisture, dust, or outdoor weather. 120 VAC input requires dedicated branch circuit protection (typically 20A minimum for 500W sustained load); do not share with lighting or general-purpose outlet circuits. Verify total connected lock and auxiliary load does not exceed 500W rated capacity. Wire input using appropriately gauged copper conductor (consult your local electrical code and a qualified electrician). Ground the supply frame to facility ground per NEC requirements.
