Description
Cooper Notication’s POWERPATH Power Supplies PS-6 and PS-8 are 24VDC,
ltered and regulated, supervised remote power supplies/battery chargers. Used
for supervision and expanded power driving capability of Fire Alarm and Mass
Notication Appliance Circuits, PS-6 provides 6 amps of power distributed across
4 outputs, while the PS-8 provides 8 Amps across 4 outputs. In addition, the
PS-8 provides additional room in the chassis for accessories like an Addressable
Control Module, with mounting studs.
The Power Supplies may be connected to any 12V or 24V (FWR or DC) Fire
Alarm Control Panel (FACP) by using a Notication Appliance Circuit (NAC) or
a “Dry Contact”. Primary applications include NAC expansion (supports ADA
requirements) and auxiliary power to support system accessories. This unit
provides ltered and regulated 24VDC, up to four (4) Class “B”, two (2) Class
“A”, or two (2) Class “B” and one (1) Class “A” Notication Appliance Circuits.
With the optional plug-in PS-EXP module the unit supports (8) Class “B” or (4)
Class “A” Notication Appliance Circuits. Additionally, an auxiliary power output
of 2.5 Amps (disconnected upon AC power loss or an alarm condition) or up to
0.240 A of constant power on the PS-8 .
The Wheelock Power Supply can accommodate 7 or 12 AH batteries inside its
lockable chassis. Using an external battery cabinet, it can charge up to 33 AH
batteries (pending UL testing). Two FACP NAC circuits or two “Dry” contact
initiating circuits can be connected to the inputs. These inputs can then be
directed to control supervision and power delivery to any combination of the
four (4) outputs. Each output is rated at 3.0 Amps (Class “B”) or (Class “A”) and
can be programmed to generate a steady or Code 3 Temporal Horn sound and
a strobe output under alarm condition. Total load for PS-8 NAC circuits must not
exceed the power supplies rated output.
The Power Supplies under non-alarm condition provides independent supervision
for Class “A” and Class “B” FACP NAC circuits. In the event of circuit trouble,
the FACP will be notied via the POWERPATH steered input (IN1 or IN2). In
addition there are two sets of trouble reporting terminals, one used for AC power
loss reporting and the other for all troubles. The AC power loss reporting, on
the common trouble terminals and on IN1 or IN2, can be delayed for either 30
seconds or 170 minutes. The AC power loss terminals will always report the
trouble within 1 second after loss of AC power.
The PS-6 and PS-8 Power Supplies are UL Listed under UL 2572 for MNS
and UL Standard 864, 9th Edition to be used with any 24 volt listed regulated
notication appliances. They include the capability to synchronize Wheelock
strobes and horns and to silence the horn signal when horn/strobes are operating
on two wires.
