i-PRO MC-150-B100D8PM8-1 LifeSafety Power Supply (150 W)
The MC-150-B100D8PM8-1 is a 150 W LifeSafety Power access-control supply with the FPO150-B100D8PM8NL4E6M configuration, providing battery-backed power for a multi-door access-control system. The unit handles a mix of door strikes, maglocks, readers, and accessory power needs with individually fused outputs and a tightly regulated DC bus.
Key Features
- 150 W LifeSafety Power access-control supply, B100D8PM8 configuration
- Selectable 12 VDC / 24 VDC output for compatible lock and reader hardware
- Battery-charging circuit for sealed lead-acid backup batteries
- Individually fused output channels protect each downstream device
- Form-C output tamper / AC-fail relays for monitoring by the access panel
- Fire-alarm release input for life-safety unlock on alarm condition
- UL listings appropriate for access-control deployment
The 150 W class is the sweet spot for multi-door deployments — large enough to power several maglocks or strikes simultaneously without browning out, small enough to be wall-mounted in a typical IDF or rear-of-house closet. The LifeSafety topology is specifically designed for the inrush characteristics of access-control loads, where every door unlock pulses the bus and a generic switching supply would either clip the rail or trip protection.
Wire the AC-fail and tamper outputs to the access panel for monitoring. Configure the fire-alarm release per local code. Replace the battery on schedule (3-5 years typical) — missed battery replacement is the single most common access-control field failure. Verify after every install that worst-case simultaneous lock current draw still has at least 20 percent headroom on the supply; an undersized supply will appear to work in commissioning and only fail under real-world load.
