Altronix AL600ULPD8CB – Frequently Asked Questions

1) How many devices can the Altronix AL600ULPD8CB power at once?
The AL600ULPD8CB splits one 115VAC, 60Hz input into eight independently protected DC outputs, so you can feed eight separate devices (cameras, maglocks, strikes, readers) from one enclosure instead of running a separate supply per opening. All eight outputs share the same 12VDC or 24VDC selection, so every device on the box has to run on the same voltage.
2) Is the Altronix AL600ULPD8CB 12 volt or 24 volt?
Either, but not both at the same time. The AL600ULPD8CB converts its 115VAC input to eight 12VDC or 24VDC outputs, and the voltage choice applies to the whole unit. Mixing 12V strikes and 24V maglocks off one box is not an option; you'd need a second supply for the other voltage.
3) Can the Altronix AL600ULPD8CB run motorized latch retraction exit devices?
For motorized latch retraction, the purpose-built unit is the BEST RPSMLR2 Series power supply, which is specified for motorized latch retraction exit devices. The AL600ULPD8CB is a general multi-output power supply/charger converting 115VAC 60Hz into eight 12/24VDC non power-limited outputs for uses such as CCTV, fire alarm and POIP, so it is not described for MLR inrush duty.
4) What is the closest equivalent to the Altronix AL600ULPD8CB if I need eight outputs but only about 2 amps of load?
The RCI DKPS-2A is the closest match in layout: it provides 8 outputs at 12/24VDC rated 2A, versus the AL600ULPD8CB's eight outputs at 12 or 24VDC at 6A. Both are multi-output access control supplies, so the distribution to eight devices is the same; the difference is the total current headroom behind those outputs.
5) Is there another 6 amp 120V input power supply besides the Altronix AL600ULPD8CB?
Yes. The BEST PS161-6 is also a 120V input, 12/24V output supply with 6A capacity, but it is described for delayed egress exit devices rather than as a general multi-output distribution panel. The AL600ULPD8CB converts a 115VAC 60Hz input into eight 12VDC or 24VDC non power-limited outputs for uses including CCTV, fire alarm and POIP.
6) I only need to power one maglock, not eight devices. What should I use instead of the AL600ULPD8CB?
For a single device, a small single-output supply is the simpler route. The Securitron AQD1 is a switching supply at 12/24 VDC 1 Amp, the SDC 620 Series is a 1 Amp regulated and filtered low voltage supply with dual voltage selection, and the Command Access PS1 is a 24VDC linear supply with 1 amp output. The AL600ULPD8CB is built to split one 115VAC feed into eight 12/24VDC outputs at 6A.
7) What AC circuit do I need to run for an Altronix AL600ULPD8CB?
Standard 120V line power. The unit is rated for a 115VAC, 60Hz input drawing 3.5A, so a normal 120V branch circuit into the grey enclosure is all the electrician needs to provide.
8) Can I use the AL600ULPD8CB on a fire alarm or CCTV job, or is it access control only?
It is not limited to door hardware. Altronix lists the AL600ULPD8 for general use, CCTV, fire alarm and POIP applications as well as access control power. It's a commercial-duty unit, not a residential plug-in supply.
9) Are the outputs on the AL600ULPD8CB power limited?
No. The eight outputs on the AL600ULPD8 are non power-limited, protected by PTC devices rather than power-limiting circuitry. That matters for how you class and route the low-voltage wiring on a fire alarm or life safety job, so plan the cabling accordingly.
10) I only need to power one or two locks. Is the 8-output Altronix overkill?
For a single opening it usually is. The AL600ULPD8CB is built to distribute eight outputs at 6A of DC capacity across a system. For one or two devices, look at a small single-output unit like the Securitron AQD1 switching supply at 12/24 VDC 1 Amp, the SDC 632 Series 2 Amp regulated supply, or the Von Duprin PS902 base power supply at 2A 12/24 VDC field selectable.
11) What is a comparable multi-output access control power supply to the Altronix AL600ULPD8CB?
The closest match in the same shape is the RCI DKPS-2A, which also gives eight outputs at 12/24VDC, though at 2A rather than the Altronix unit's 6A. If you need the higher current but fewer outputs, the BEST PS161-6 runs 120V in, 12/24V out at 6A capacity.
12) Does the AL600ULPD8CB support battery backup?
It is a power supply/charger, meaning it charges standby batteries as well as supplying the eight DC outputs. Batteries themselves are a separate purchase and are sized to the standby time you need.
13) What are my options if I need more than 6 amps of 12VDC?
The Securitron AQS1210 is a switching power supply rated 12 VDC at 10 Amp, so it carries more 12VDC current than the AL600ULPD8CB's 6A, though it is a 12VDC unit rather than a 12/24VDC selectable multi-output panel. The AL600ULPD8CB distributes its capacity across eight PTC outputs at either 12 or 24VDC.
14) Which of these power supplies include battery backup, since the AL600ULPD8CB is a power supply/charger?
The AL600ULPD8CB is specified as a power supply/charger. Among comparable units, the Adams Rite PS-1 is a 1 Amp 12/24 volt DC regulated supply with battery backup, the Command Access PS204/204B is a linear supply with 2A at 24VDC and battery backup, and the Detex 10-800 universal logic controller pairs a 120VAC/24VDC supply with battery backup. Those are lower-current units than the 6A AL600ULPD8CB.
15) What looks like a substitute for the AL600ULPD8CB but is not a multi-output supply?
A few nearby items serve different roles. The BEST ELR150 is a power supply control module for electronic access control rather than a full 115VAC-to-DC supply, the ROFU 10305-LA is a power transfer hinge rated 1.5A at 42V for getting power through the door, and the Command Access CAT Field Tester is a portable 12-24VDC tester that runs off DeWalt, Makita and Milwaukee batteries. The AL600ULPD8CB is a fixed-install power supply/charger with eight 12/24VDC outputs at 6A in a grey enclosure.
16) Is the AL600ULPD8CB the right choice for a two-door access control job, or is there a smaller field-selectable unit?
For a small door count, the Von Duprin PS902 is a Grade 1 base power supply rated 2A at 12/24 VDC field selectable for access control, and the SDC 632 Series is a 2 Amp regulated and filtered supply with dual voltage selection. The AL600ULPD8CB is sized for larger device counts, splitting a 115VAC 60Hz input into eight 12/24VDC outputs at 6A.
17) I need a 12VDC supply with a built-in time delay. Does the AL600ULPD8CB do that?
The AL600ULPD8CB is a multi-output power supply/charger with eight 12/24VDC outputs and no timing function described. If you need timing at the supply, the ROFU 9126T is a plug-in mini power supply rated 12 VDC at 1.5A with time delay, and the Detex 10-800 is a universal logic controller with a 120VAC/24VDC supply and battery backup.
18) Is there an equivalent that does not need an AC feed run to it?
The Securitron BPSS is a boxed solar power supply, which is the option when running 115VAC to the location is impractical. The AL600ULPD8CB requires a 115VAC 60Hz input at 3.5A to produce its eight 12/24VDC outputs at 6A.
19) Does the Altronix AL600ULPD8CB come with a cabinet, or do I need to buy an enclosure?
The enclosure is included. The AL600ULPD8CB ships as a grey enclosure with the power supply/charger board inside, so it mounts to the wall in the closet as delivered.
