Altronix T2V7XK1D 8-Door HID Aero Access and Power Integration Kit
Overview
The Altronix T2V7XK1D is a factory-configured, 8-door access control and power integration kit built specifically for HID Aero platform deployments. The kit centers on a Trove2V2 enclosure pre-loaded with an eFlow104NB power supply/charger, ACMS8CB dual-input access power controller, VR6 voltage regulator, PDS8CB dual-input power distribution module, RSB1, wire harnesses, and finger duct — all pre-configured with terminal blocks for HID Aero hardware. If you are commissioning an Aero-based system and want to cut field wiring time while ensuring clean, supervised power delivery to every door, the T2V7XK1D is worth a close look.
The enclosure supports one X1100 Intelligent Controller and three X100 Input Monitor Interface Modules, giving you the full 8-reader Aero topology in a single wall-mount cabinet.
Key Features
- 10A Continuous / 24VDC Output (eFlow104NB): The primary power supply delivers a regulated, filtered 24VDC at 10A continuous plus 1A unswitched auxiliary — enough headroom to drive all eight doors and their associated hardware without a separate power budget exercise on each reader circuit.
- Dual Voltage Architecture (12VDC + 24VDC): The ACMS8CB draws 24VDC from the eFlow104NB and 12VDC stepped down through the VR6 voltage regulator (6A continuous). Each of the eight outputs is independently selectable between 12VDC and 24VDC, so mixed-voltage locking hardware on the same panel is handled without external converters.
- Eight Independently Controlled Outputs: The ACMS8CB provides eight PTC-protected outputs (2.5A per output) configurable as fail-safe/fail-secure power outputs, Form C relay outputs (rated 28VAC or VDC at 2.5A), unswitched auxiliary, or any combination — supporting virtually any lock type in a single enclosure.
- Battery Backup with Deep-Discharge Protection: The eFlow104NB charges up to four 12VDC/7AH sealed lead-acid or gel batteries housed inside the enclosure. On AC loss, failover is instantaneous. The low DC power shutdown circuit engages at 70–75% battery depletion, protecting batteries from deep discharge that shortens service life.
- AC and Battery Supervision via Form C Contacts: Both AC failure and battery fault conditions report through Form C relay contacts, enabling integration with fire alarm control panels or BACnet/monitoring systems without additional relay modules.
- PDS8CB Power Distribution: An additional eight PTC-protected distribution outputs (2.5A each) follow either the 24VDC or 12VDC input bus independently, giving you a total of 16 supervised, individually switchable circuit outputs across ACMS8CB and PDS8CB combined.
- Pre-Wired, Factory-Configured Enclosure: The Trove2V2 ships with wire harnesses, finger duct, and terminal blocks already installed and labeled for HID Aero hardware. Field installation time is reduced to mounting, home-run cabling, and controller programming — not point-to-point wiring from scratch.
- CE Compliant: Meets CE requirements for commercial installation in applicable markets.
- Thermal and Environmental Envelope: Rated for 0°C to 49°C operating and up to 85% relative humidity, covering typical indoor IDF/MDF rooms and utility closets. The enclosure dissipates approximately 145 BTU/Hr. — factor this into HVAC planning for tight equipment rooms.
Integration and Compatibility
The T2V7XK1D is purpose-built for the HID Aero platform — specifically the X1100 Intelligent Controller and X100 Input Monitor Interface Modules. The pre-configured terminal blocks and wire harnesses are matched to Aero hardware pinouts, so pairing this kit with off-platform controllers requires verifying termination compatibility. For remote diagnostics, the optional LINQ2 Network Communication Module (sold separately) adds network-based monitoring and reporting of power supply status without requiring a separate supervision relay loop to the head-end.

For HID Aero controller selection and access control panel design, the access control category covers readers, panels, and credentials. If you are sizing battery backup, review the power supply and UPS category for companion Altronix battery enclosures when more than four 7AH batteries are needed.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How many doors does the T2V7XK1D support?
A: The T2V7XK1D supports up to 8 doors. It accommodates one HID Aero X1100 Intelligent Controller and three X100 Input Monitor Interface Modules.
Q: Can the output voltage be changed per door circuit?
A: Yes. Each of the eight ACMS8CB outputs is independently selectable between 12VDC and 24VDC, allowing mixed-voltage locking hardware on the same panel.
Q: How many batteries fit inside the enclosure?
A: Up to four 12VDC/7AH sealed lead-acid or gel batteries fit inside the Trove2V2 enclosure. Batteries are sold separately. For higher-capacity backup (40AH or 65AH), a separate Altronix battery enclosure is required.
Q: Does the kit include supervision for AC failure and battery faults?
A: Yes. The eFlow104NB provides Form C relay contacts for both AC failure and battery fault supervision, suitable for connection to a fire alarm control panel or monitoring system.
Q: What is the current rating per output circuit?
A: Each PTC-protected output on the ACMS8CB and PDS8CB is rated at 2.5A. The overall primary supply delivers 10A continuous at 24VDC.
Q: Is network monitoring available for the power supply in this kit?
A: Network monitoring is available through the optional LINQ2 Network Communication Module (sold separately), which is compatible with the eFlow series power supply included in this kit.
The T2V7XK1D is the kind of kit that earns its price on labor alone. The pre-wired Trove2V2 enclosure with factory-installed terminal blocks keyed to HID Aero pinouts eliminates the hours of point-to-point wiring that a scratch-built panel requires — and with 10A continuous at 24VDC from the eFlow104NB, you have a power budget that covers eight Aero doors with real headroom to spare.
Technical Highlights:
- Dual Voltage / 8 Independent Outputs: The ACMS8CB delivers eight individually selectable 12VDC or 24VDC PTC-protected outputs at 2.5A each. Mixed lock hardware — say, 24VDC mag-locks on four doors and 12VDC strikes on four others — integrates without external converters or additional panels.
- Instantaneous Battery Failover with 70–75% Shutdown Gate: Failover on AC loss is instantaneous, and the low DC power shutdown prevents battery voltage from dropping into damaging depletion territory. Four 7AH batteries inside the enclosure is a viable overnight standby buffer for most 8-door sites.
- Form C Supervision on Both AC and Battery: Both failure conditions expose dry Form C contacts — useful when the security head-end or FACP needs a hardwired fault signal rather than a network-polled status.
Deployment Considerations:
- The enclosure dissipates 145 BTU/Hr. — in a sealed IT closet or small utility room, verify ambient temperature stays under 49°C before mounting. A louvered or actively ventilated enclosure location is preferable.
- This kit is pre-configured for HID Aero X1100 + X100 hardware specifically. If your project has shifted to a different Aero controller variant or a non-Aero platform, verify terminal block compatibility before ordering — the factory harness wiring is not generic.
The T2V7XK1D fits best in mid-size commercial projects — corporate office floors, healthcare wings, and education buildings — where the Aero platform is already specified, battery backup is contractually required, and the project budget benefits from cutting a half-day of field wiring labor per panel.
