Lifesafety Power FPV102-D8E1 12VDC Power Supply with 8 Auxiliary Outputs
Overview
The FPV102-D8E1 is a 12VDC, 10-ampere power supply engineered to distribute power across multiple security devices in a single installation. The 8 auxiliary outputs allow you to provision cameras, access control readers, strobes, or mixed endpoint loads without requiring separate power transformers for each device—reducing wiring complexity and panel real estate in typical access control or video surveillance deployments.
Power Specifications
Output voltage: 12VDC at 10A maximum current. This amperage ceiling means you can support roughly 10 cameras drawing 1A each, or a mix of lower-draw endpoints (readers at 0.5A, strobes at 2A) depending on your load distribution. Eight auxiliary outputs let you assign different loads to separate circuits, improving fault isolation—if one circuit trips, the others remain live.
Compatibility
The FPV102-D8E1 integrates into Lifesafety Power supply ecosystems and is commonly paired with low-voltage camera systems, door control modules, and security panel expansions that require distributed 12VDC rails. Verify your endpoint current draw against the 10A total budget before installation; devices exceeding this aggregate will require a secondary supply.
Installation Notes
Mount the unit in an accessible enclosure or DIN-rail cabinet where thermal dissipation is adequate. Wire auxiliary outputs according to your system load plan—clearly label each circuit to prevent unintended overload. Confirm all connected devices accept 12VDC input; mixing voltage standards is a common field error.
When to Choose a Different Model
If your installation requires higher amperage (e.g., 16A or 24A), or if you need integrated battery backup for fail-safe operation, consult the broader power supply category for higher-capacity variants in the Lifesafety Power line.
