Lifesafety Power FPV4-D8E1 4-Amp Power Supply with 8 Auxiliary Outputs
Overview
The FPV4-D8E1 is a 4-amp power distribution unit designed to supply multiple security devices from a single input source. The 8 auxiliary outputs allow you to manage power distribution to cameras, access control equipment, and auxiliary devices in a single enclosure—reducing the need for multiple standalone supplies and simplifying integration in small-to-medium deployments. This is the core tool for centralizing power management on warehouse, retail, or office surveillance systems where device count exceeds single-supply capacity but doesn't warrant a large panel.
Key Specifications
Output capacity: 4 amps total across 8 auxiliary outputs means you can distribute 500mA per output on average—sufficient for IP cameras, door locks, and sensor power in parallel. The 8-output topology lets you assign power independently to each circuit, so a camera failure or high-draw device doesn't collapse the entire system.
Integration advantage: Centralizing power through a managed power supply with supervision capability improves system uptime by allowing remote monitoring of supply voltage and load status. Where evidence supports battery backup capability, that feature extends runtime during brief power loss—critical for access control continuity.
Compatibility
The FPV4-D8E1 is part of the Lifesafety Power catalog and integrates with standard 12VDC or 24VDC security camera systems, door strike controllers, and auxiliary relay loads. Verify voltage and amp draw of each downstream device before assignment to individual outputs; exceeding per-output capacity will trigger supply shutdown.
Installation Notes
Confirm input voltage and current availability at the installation site. The 8 outputs require individual load calculation—sum amperage of all connected devices must not exceed 4A total. Verify that any battery backup module (if equipped) is sized for your critical-load runtime requirement.
