Altronix AL1012ULXB – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Altronix AL1012ULXB power 12VDC maglocks and strikes on standard 115VAC building power?
The AL1012ULXB takes 115VAC, 60Hz at 2.6A in and puts out a single 12VDC non power-limited output rated 10A continuous. That covers a bank of 12V maglocks, strikes, or readers as long as your total draw stays at or under 10 amps. Input fuse is 5A/250V, output fuse is 15A/32V, and the output is filtered and electronically regulated with short circuit and thermal overload protection.
2) Does the AL1012ULXB come with a battery, or do I have to order standby batteries separately?
Batteries are sold separately. The board has a built-in charger for sealed lead acid or gel type batteries and switches over automatically when AC fails, with zero voltage drop at the transfer, so no reboot on the devices downstream. Budget for the batteries and the enclosure hardware when you spec the job, because the AL1012ULXB itself is the board.
3) Can I tie the Altronix AL1012ULXB into a fire alarm or building management panel for AC loss trouble reporting?
Yes, and it reports three separate conditions on form C contacts: AC fail, low battery, and battery presence. Dry form C gives you both normally open and normally closed legs, so it wires into most trouble inputs without an interposing relay. The AC fail notification delay is selectable, 30 seconds from the factory or 6 hours if you do not want brief utility dips generating trouble signals.
4) Is the AL1012ULXB power-limited, and does that change how I run my wiring?
The output is non power-limited. That matters on install: non power-limited circuits cannot share a raceway or enclosure knockout with power-limited fire alarm or Class 2 wiring, so plan separate runs. If your spec sheet calls for a power-limited access control supply, this is the wrong board for that opening. What you get in exchange is the full 10A at 12VDC on a single output.
5) The Von Duprin PS873 power supply in the closet has a bad relay board. Is an Altronix AL1012ULXB the right fix?
Only if the whole supply is being replaced. The Altronix AL1012ULXB is a complete off-line switching power supply and charger board that takes 115VAC, 60Hz in and puts out 12VDC at 10A continuous with AC fail, low battery and battery presence supervision on form C contacts. The Command Access VD2-873 is a replacement relay board built for the Von Duprin PS873 power supply, so it drops into that existing enclosure and leaves the supply itself in place. Board-level repair of a PS873 points to the VD2-873; swapping out to a standalone 12VDC 10A supply points to the AL1012ULXB.
6) Can a Command Access DS1+ board be used in place of the Altronix AL1012ULXB?
No, they do different jobs in the same cabinet. The Altronix AL1012ULXB is an off-line switching power supply board that converts a 115VAC, 60Hz input into a 12VDC output rated 10A continuous, with a built-in charger for sealed lead acid or gel batteries. The Command Access DS1+ is a delay/sequencer board that runs on 12-24VDC with bi-directional control, so it takes low-voltage DC in and times or sequences devices downstream. If the need is to make 12VDC from line voltage, the AL1012ULXB is the part; a DS1+ still needs a DC source in front of it.
7) Can I mount the AL1012ULXB in an unconditioned electrical room or a rooftop penthouse?
Operating range is 0 C to 49 C (32 F to 120 F), so an unheated space that drops below freezing is out. Storage tolerance is wider, -20 C to 70 C (-4 F to 158 F), but that is shelf life, not running. Relative humidity is 85% +/- 5%. Heat rejection is low, about 61 BTU/hr, so it will not load a small closet.
8) Do I need a power supply board like the AL1012ULXB, or a door sequencing relay board?
They do different jobs and larger openings use both. The AL1012ULXB is the source of power: 115VAC in, 12VDC at 10A out, with battery charging and standby transfer. A sequencer board does not make power, it times and orders the release of devices, for example the Command Access DS1+ delay/sequencer board, which runs on 12-24VDC with bi-directional control, or the DS1-X with 13 programmable functions. If you need an automatic operator, mag, and exit device to fire in the right order, that is a sequencer, and it still has to be fed from a supply.
9) I need to sequence a mag lock, an operator and a strike off one 12VDC supply. Does the Altronix AL1012ULXB do the sequencing, or do I need another board?
The Altronix AL1012ULXB is the power source, not the logic. It converts 115VAC, 60Hz into a single 12VDC non power-limited output rated 10A continuous, with automatic switch over to a stand-by battery when AC fails and zero voltage drop on that switch over. Timed release order between devices comes from a sequencing board fed by that DC. The Command Access DS1-X is a multi-function door sequencing relay board with 13 programmable functions, and the Command Access DS1+ is a delay/sequencer board operating on 12-24VDC with bi-directional control, both of which sit downstream of a supply like the AL1012ULXB.
10) How do I tell at a glance whether an AL1012ULXB has lost building power?
Two LEDs on the board: one lights when 115VAC input is present, one lights when the DC output is powered. If the input LED is dark and the DC LED is still lit, the supply has transferred to standby battery and you are on borrowed time. For anything beyond a walk-by check, use the AC fail form C contact to report the condition back to a panel.
