Altronix T3VK77F16SD 16-Door HID Aero/VertX Access Control Power Integration Kit
Overview
The Altronix T3VK77F16SD is a factory-assembled, pre-wired power and access integration kit designed to support up to sixteen doors of HID VertX or Aero-based access control from a single Trove3 wall-mount enclosure. Rather than sourcing and wiring individual power supplies, distribution modules, and access controllers separately — a process that typically adds hours to a multi-door install — this kit ships with every major component pre-mounted on the Altronix TV3 HID Aero/Altronix backplane, ready to commission. For commercial deployments where integrators need to wire sixteen credential readers, door contacts, and locking hardware from one location, the T3VK77F16SD eliminates the custom fabrication step that drives up labor cost and introduces wiring errors.

Key Features
- Dual 24VDC/10A Power Supply/Chargers (eFlow104NB × 2): Two independent power supplies each deliver 24VDC at 10A continuous — 20A of total primary capacity means you can power high-draw locking hardware (magnetic locks, electric strikes) across all sixteen doors without brownout risk on a busy access event burst. Each supply includes overvoltage protection and is filtered and regulated, so the downstream controllers see clean DC even when the building power fluctuates.
- Instantaneous AC Failover with Battery Charging: On AC loss, failover is instantaneous — no relay delay that could cause a door to momentarily re-lock or cycle. Each eFlow104NB charges up to four 12VDC/12AH batteries internal to the enclosure (batteries sold separately), providing local backup runtime proportional to load. For deployments requiring extended backup, the design supports 40AH or 65AH batteries in a separate companion enclosure.
- Fire Alarm Disconnect with Supervision: Both supplies include a supervised fire alarm disconnect with selectable latching or non-latching behavior and a 10K EOL resistor — this meets the FACP integration requirement common on commercial installs where life-safety code mandates fail-safe door release on alarm. AC failure and battery status each provide Form C supervised contacts for reporting to a monitoring panel.
- Dual-Voltage PTC Distribution (PDS16CB × 3, 48 outputs total): Three 16-output power distribution modules provide 48 individually PTC-protected outputs, each selectable between 12VDC and 24VDC. The 2.5A per-output PTC resets automatically after a fault clears — no blown fuses to replace during a service call. Each output can be set to follow either the 24V primary bus or the 12V regulated bus independently, so mixed-voltage locking hardware installs without voltage converters on individual devices.
- 8-Output Access Power Controllers (ACMS8CB × 2, 16 controlled outputs): The two ACMS8CB modules provide sixteen independently controlled outputs for lock power and relay switching. Each output is individually configurable as fail-safe power, fail-secure power, or a Form C relay output (rated 28VAC/VDC at 2.5A) — supporting both magnetic lock and electric strike hardware in the same enclosure without external relay boards. The FACP disconnect indicator (blue LED) is visible per module, which matters during a fire alarm test walk.
- 10A Voltage Regulators with Surge Suppression (VR10 × 2): Two regulators step the 24VDC bus down to 12VDC at 10A continuous, with surge suppression protecting downstream 12V devices — card readers, door contacts, REX sensors — from transients on the primary bus.
- Deep Battery Discharge Protection: The low DC power shutdown engages if battery voltage drops below 70–75% of the 24V nominal, preserving battery life and preventing the deep discharge cycles that shorten lead-acid battery service life. On sites with infrequent AC outages, this extends battery replacement intervals.
- Individual Output Servicing: Every distribution output on both the PDS16CB and ACMS8CB modules can be set to OFF individually without cutting power to adjacent outputs — a practical feature when troubleshooting a single door's hardware without disrupting the remaining fifteen doors during business hours.
