Altronix FIRESWITCH108 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What is a comparable multi-output 12/24VDC power supply for an access control job needing eight fused outputs?
The Altronix AL600ULPD8 described with the FIRESWITCH108 converts a 115VAC 60Hz input into eight 12VDC or 24VDC outputs rated 6A. If you want eight outputs at a lower current, the RCI DKPS-2A is a power supply with 8 outputs at 12/24VDC and 2A. For a 6A supply intended for delayed egress exit devices, the BEST PS161-6 takes a 120V input and gives 12/24V output at 6A capacity.
2) I only need to power one electric strike - is there a simpler option than a multi-output 6A supply?
Yes. For a single device, single-output supplies are sized for that load: the Command Access PS1 is a 24VDC linear power supply with 1 amp output, the SDC 620 Series is a 1 amp regulated and filtered low voltage supply with dual voltage selection, and the Securitron AQD1 is a 12/24VDC 1 amp switching supply. The ROFU 9126T is a plug-in mini power supply at 12VDC/1.5A with a time delay built in.
3) Which power supplies include battery backup if I need the openings to hold through an outage?
Three in the same class carry backup. The Adams Rite PS-1 is a regulated 1 amp 12/24VDC supply with battery backup, the Command Access PS204/204B is a linear supply at 2A/24VDC with battery backup, and the Detex 10-800 Series is a universal logic controller with a 120VAC/24VDC supply and battery backup. The Securitron BPSS is a boxed solar power supply for locations without a reliable AC feed.
4) What should I use instead if the exit devices are motorized latch retraction?
Motor-driven latch retraction draws a heavy inrush and is normally fed by a supply built for it. The BEST RPSMLR2 Series is a power supply for motorized latch retraction exit devices, and the Command Access PS210 is a UL 6E/CSA linear supply at 1.5A 24VDC with boost circuitry. A general multi-output 12/24VDC supply such as the AL600ULPD8 is described for general use, CCTV, fire alarm and POIP rather than for latch retraction duty.
5) Which comparable power supplies are UL listed or carry a grade for a spec-driven institutional job?
The Aiphone AC-PS1250 is UL listed, rated 12VDC 5A, and is intended for AC Series access control kits. The Command Access PS210 is a UL 6E/CSA linear supply at 1.5A 24VDC. The Von Duprin PS902 base power supply is Grade 1, 2A, 12/24VDC field selectable for access control.
6) I need more than 6 amps on a single 12VDC run - what carries a higher output?
The Securitron AQS1210 is a 12VDC switching power supply rated 10 amps, and the Securitron AQL4 is a 12/24VDC switching supply at 4A/3A. The SDC 634 Series is a 4 amp regulated and filtered low voltage supply with dual voltage selection. For comparison, the Altronix AL600ULPD8 supplies 12 or 24VDC at 6A across eight fused outputs.
7) Are the power transfer hinge and the field tester substitutes for a boxed power supply?
No. The ROFU 10305-LA/10306-LA is a tamper resistant power transfer hinge rated 1.5A at 42V - it carries current through the door edge but does not generate it, so you still need a supply upstream. The Command Access CAT Field Tester is a portable 12-24VDC unit that runs on DeWalt, Makita and Milwaukee batteries, meant for bench and field testing rather than permanent installation. For a permanently installed 120V-fed supply, look at units such as the ROFU 9102-12D UL/9102-24D, which takes a 10/120VAC 60Hz input.
8) What is the difference between a power supply and a power supply control module in these lines?
A supply generates the DC output; a control module switches or manages it. The BEST ELR150 Series is a power supply control module for electronic access control, and the Detex 10-800 Series pairs a universal logic controller with a 120VAC/24VDC supply and battery backup. Straight supplies in the same set include the SDC 631 Series, a 1.5 amp regulated and filtered DC power controller with dual voltage selection, and the SDC 632 Series at 2 amps with dual voltage selection.
9) For a maglock bank that needs a large enclosed supply, what else should I be looking at?
The Locknetics LP Series is offered in 150 and 250 configurations with an enclosure, so the supply and its terminations land in one housing. The Altronix AL600ULPD8 is likewise a boxed unit, listed with a grey enclosure and eight fused 12/24VDC outputs at 6A from a 115VAC 60Hz input.
