Lifesafety Power FPO75/150-C8D8PE8M 8-Door Power Supply
Overview
The FPO75/150-C8D8PE8M is a multi-output power supply engineered for small- to mid-scale access control deployments. It delivers regulated power to door locks, readers, and ancillary control circuits across up to 8 independent access points — a common requirement in warehouse facilities, small office complexes, and retail security systems where distributed power from a central location reduces wiring complexity and improves serviceability.
Compatibility & Application
This unit integrates with standard access control panels and multi-reader configurations. The 8-door capacity addresses installations where individual reader power, solenoid lock circuits, and sensor inputs need isolated supply paths. Consult your panel manufacturer's load specifications — total device draw must not exceed the unit's rated output current to prevent nuisance lockdowns during peak demand.
Output Configuration
The FPO75/150-C8D8PE8M delivers regulated DC output across 8 independent channels. Each channel should be sized according to your door lock and reader power budgets. Typical door lock draws range from 400 mA to 1.2 A depending on strike type (fail-safe vs. fail-secure) and solenoid design — size each channel accordingly to avoid brownout conditions during simultaneous unlock operations.
Installation Considerations
Mount the unit in a climate-controlled equipment enclosure near the access control panel to minimize voltage drop over cable runs. Wire each output channel to its corresponding door circuit using appropriately rated conductor gauge — longer runs may require upsizing to maintain voltage stability at the lock. Ensure backup battery supervision (if equipped) is tested before live deployment; verify all output rails with a multimeter before connecting loads.
