Lifesafety Power RD150-8 Rack Mount DC Power Supply
Overview
The RD150-8 is a 1RU rack-mount DC power supply rated for 12V @ 12A or 24V @ 6A output, with eight dedicated egress lock control outputs. Deploy this where you need centralized, reliable DC distribution for door locks, readers, and access control devices in a standard 19-inch rack — typical in security closets, server rooms, and distributed access control installations. The dual-output configuration lets you power either voltage tier from a single unit, critical when your building mixes 12V and 24V devices.
Compatibility
The RD150-8 integrates with egress lock systems and access control panels that operate at 12V DC or 24V DC. Eight independent outputs mean eight separate devices or zones can draw power simultaneously without cross-talk — no daisy-chaining required. Verify your lock actuators, solenoids, and control modules match one of the two voltage outputs before commissioning.
Installation Notes
Rack mount in a standard 19-inch equipment cabinet. Calculate total amperage draw across all eight outputs to ensure you don't exceed the 12A or 6A limit for your chosen voltage. Each output should be protected by an individual breaker or fuse on your rack panel or cabinet distribution strip. Wire egress devices using appropriate gauge cable for the current draw and run distance — oversizing is cheap insurance against voltage drop on long runs.
