Aiphone AC-PS1250 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Which Aiphone access control kits does the AC-PS1250 power supply work with?
The AC-PS1250 is built to power Aiphone's AC Series starter kits: the ACS-2DR, ACS-2DR-C, ACS-IO, and ACS-ELV. It supplies the regulated 12V DC those controllers expect, so if you are replacing a failed supply on one of those kits, this is the matching part.
2) Will the Aiphone AC-PS1250 fit inside my existing access control enclosure?
The unit measures 6-9/16 x 2-1/8 x 1-3/8 inches, so it is a small board-style supply rather than a boxed cabinet supply. Measure the free space in your panel against those three numbers. If you need something that arrives in its own enclosure, a boxed unit like the Altronix AL1024ULACMCB or the Locknetics LP Series is the different approach.
3) Can the AC-PS1250 be switched to 24V DC for maglocks or electric strikes that need it?
No. The AC-PS1250 is a fixed 12V DC output at 5A, with no dual-voltage selection. If your locks run at 24V or you want field-selectable voltage, look at a dual-voltage unit such as the SDC 632 (2 amp) or SDC 634 (4 amp), or the Von Duprin PS902, which is field selectable 12/24 VDC at 2A.
4) Is the Aiphone AC-PS1250 listed for commercial installations?
It carries a UL/ULC 60950-1 listing, which is the safety standard for information technology and communication equipment power supplies. The unit is classified for commercial use, which matters when an inspector or a facility spec calls for listed power equipment on an access control panel.
5) Does the AC-PS1250 include battery backup for the access control system?
No battery backup is part of the AC-PS1250. It is a straight 12V DC 5A supply with no standby battery circuit. If your school, healthcare, or government opening needs the readers and locks to survive a power loss, choose a supply built around batteries instead, such as the Adams Rite PS-1 (1 amp, 12/24VDC, battery backup), the Command Access PS204/204B (2A at 24VDC with battery backup), or the Detex 10-800 controller with 24VDC supply and battery backup.
6) Will the Aiphone AC-PS1250 run motorized latch retraction exit devices?
The AC-PS1250 is purpose-built to power Aiphone AC Series access control starter kits at a fixed 12V DC 5A. Motorized latch retraction and delayed egress hardware are normally fed from supplies built for that duty, such as the BEST RPSMLR2 Series power supply for motorized latch retraction exit devices, or the BEST PS161-6, a 120V input, 12/24V output, 6A supply for delayed egress exit devices. Match the supply to the exit device manufacturer's current requirement.
7) What is the closest 12V DC equivalent to the Aiphone AC-PS1250 if I need more than 5 amps?
The Aiphone AC-PS1250 delivers 12V DC at 5A from a 90~264V AC input. If the door hardware load exceeds that, the Securitron AQS1210 is a switching power supply rated 12 VDC at 10 Amp, roughly double the current at the same nominal voltage. Sizing should be based on the total holding and inrush current of the locks and readers on the circuit.
8) I need a power supply that can run 24V devices as well as 12V - what should I use instead of the AC-PS1250?
The Aiphone AC-PS1250 is a fixed 12V DC 5A output, so it cannot serve a 24V device. Field-selectable options include the Von Duprin PS902, a 2A 12/24 VDC field selectable base power supply, and the Securitron AQL4, a switching supply rated 12/24VDC at 4/3Amp. The SDC 634 Series is a 4 amp regulated and filtered low voltage supply with dual voltage selection.
9) Does the Aiphone AC-PS1250 include battery backup, and what should I specify if I need it?
The AC-PS1250 is a compact 12V DC 5A supply measuring 6-9/16 x 2-1/8 x 1-3/8 inches, designed to drop into an existing access control enclosure rather than to house standby batteries. For a supply with onboard backup, the Adams Rite PS-1 is a regulated 1 amp 12/24 volt DC supply with battery backup, and the Command Access PS204/204B is a linear supply with 2A at 24VDC and battery backup. The Detex 10-800 Series pairs a 120VAC/24VDC supply and battery backup with a universal logic controller.
10) I need multiple fused or protected outputs for several doors - is the AC-PS1250 the right choice?
The Aiphone AC-PS1250 provides a single regulated 12V DC 5A output for AC Series kits. If you need distributed outputs from one cabinet, the RCI DKPS-2A offers 8 outputs at 12/24VDC 2A for access control systems, and the Altronix AL1024ULACMCB is a power supply and access power controller with 8 PTC outputs, 115VAC 60Hz input at 4.2A and 24VDC at 10A.
11) What input voltage does the Aiphone AC-PS1250 accept, and will it run on 230V?
Input range is 90 to 264V AC at 50/60Hz, so it runs on both 120V North American service and 230V at 50Hz without any jumper or tap change. That wide range is why the same part works across international installations.
12) Is 5 amps enough to run strikes and readers on a two-door Aiphone system?
Five amps at 12V is the output Aiphone specifies for its AC Series starter kits, and it covers the controller plus the connected door hardware those kits are designed around. Total the continuous draw of your strikes, maglocks, and readers and keep the sum under 5A. If your load runs higher, a 10 amp unit like the Securitron AQS1210 at 12 VDC is the step up.
13) Does the AC-PS1250 have multiple fused outputs for separate doors?
The AC-PS1250 is a single regulated 12V DC 5A supply, not a distribution board. If you want individually protected outputs so one shorted strike does not drop the whole system, use a power controller such as the RCI DKPS-2A, which provides 8 outputs at 12/24VDC 2A, or the Altronix AL1024ULACMCB with 8 PTC outputs at 24VDC 10A.
14) I only need to power a single small 12V device - is there something smaller than the AC-PS1250?
The Aiphone AC-PS1250 is a 5A supply intended for the ACS-2DR, ACS-2DR-C, ACS-IO, and ACS-ELV starter kits. For a single low-draw device, the ROFU 9126T is a plug-in mini power supply rated 12 VDC at 1.5A with time delay, and the Securitron AQD1 is a switching supply rated 12/24 VDC at 1 Amp. Both are much lower current, so confirm the device draw before substituting.
15) Is the ROFU 9102 a drop-in replacement for the Aiphone AC-PS1250?
They are not interchangeable as a matter of course. The AC-PS1250 accepts 90~264V AC at 50/60Hz and is engineered specifically for the ACS-2DR, ACS-2DR-C, ACS-IO, and ACS-ELV starter kits, which expect its regulated 12V DC 5A output. The ROFU 9102 is offered as 9102-12D UL and 9102-24D with 10/120VAC 60Hz input, so the 12V version would need its current rating verified against the kit's draw before it is used in an Aiphone AC Series panel.
16) What is the difference between the Aiphone AC-PS1250 and a linear power supply like the Command Access PS1 or SDC 632?
The Aiphone AC-PS1250 is a compact unit with a universal 90~264V AC 50/60Hz input and a fixed 12V DC 5A output, UL/ULC 60950-1 listed. The Command Access PS1 Series is a linear power supply with a 24VDC 1 amp output, and the SDC 632 Series is a 2 amp regulated and filtered low voltage supply with dual voltage selection. The practical distinctions for the installer are output voltage, available current, and whether the voltage is fixed or selectable in the field.
17) Can I use the Command Access CAT Field Tester in place of the AC-PS1250?
No. The Aiphone AC-PS1250 is a permanently installed 12V DC 5A supply for AC Series access control kits, fed from 90~264V AC line power. The Command Access CAT Field Tester is a portable 12-24VDC power supply that runs on DeWalt, Makita, and Milwaukee batteries, intended for bench and field testing of hardware rather than as the system supply for an installed panel.
18) The AC-PS1250 has no enclosure of its own - what options come boxed?
The Aiphone AC-PS1250 measures 6-9/16 x 2-1/8 x 1-3/8 inches so it can be mounted inside an existing access control enclosure. If you need the supply to come with its own housing, the Locknetics LP Series is offered with an enclosure, the Altronix AL1024ULACMCB ships in a grey enclosure, and the Securitron BPSS is a boxed solar power supply for locations without convenient line power.
