Lifesafety Power FPO75/150-C8D8E6S-VZ03 Dual Voltage Power Supply
Overview
The FPO75/150-C8D8E6S-VZ03 is a 225W redundant power supply designed for security installations requiring simultaneous 12V and 24V rail delivery. The unit handles 8 lock/auxiliary outputs across both voltage planes, making it suited for mixed-protocol access control panels, electric strike controllers, and networked security devices that demand separate power trees without multiple PSU chassis. iSTAR Ultra designation indicates sealed, filtered enclosure construction — important in environments where dust or thermal cycling would degrade open-frame supplies.
Compatibility
This supply integrates with Lifesafety Power system architectures and compatible third-party access control panels requiring dual-voltage, multi-output architecture. Verify your control panel's input voltage specification (12V or 24V primary) and total connected load across both rails does not exceed 225W combined. Eight dedicated outputs allow independent circuit assignment — typical uses include electric strikes on one rail, magnetic locks on the other, with auxiliary contactors or relay circuits on remaining ports. Confirm output terminal type (screw-clamp vs. phoenix-style connectors) matches your field wiring standard before procurement.
Installation Notes
Mount in a protected enclosure or DIN rail cabinet to maintain internal temperature within operating range. Verify incoming AC mains voltage matches the supply's input spec. Wire AC input through an appropriately rated main breaker (typically 20A for 225W output). Ground the supply chassis per local electrical code. Test 12V and 24V rails independently under no-load and full-load conditions before connecting critical devices — voltage droop across long runs to remote locks can degrade solenoid pull-in performance if undersized. Allow 2–3 inches of ventilation clearance around the unit to prevent thermal throttling under sustained load.
