General The PS Series is a remote power supply line from Fire•Lite Alarms and is a direct replacement for the FCPS-24FS6/8 Series. The FLPS6(C) is a 6 amp and the FL-PS10(C) is a 10 amp, remote power supply with battery charger that may be connected to any 12 or 24 volt fire alarm control panel (FACP) or used as a standalone power supply. The PS Series provides 24 VDC power for NACs (notification appliance circuits) configured as either Class B or Class A (requires the ZNAC-PS option card) with multiple sync protocol options. The PS Series also provides auxiliary power, constant or resettable, suited for detectors, annunciators, door holders, and other fire alarm system peripherals. The PS Series cabinet can hold two 7 AH or 18 AH batteries and can charge up to 33 AH batteries in a separate cabinet.
Features
• Up to five (6 amp model) or seven (10 amp model) independently-configurable, power-limited output circuits for: – Class B and/or Class A NACs – Class B and/or Class A resettable or non-resettable 24V auxiliary power – door holder power
• Converts from Class B to Class A wiring without losing any outputs using the ZNAC-PS converter card (sold separately)
