SECURITRON BPSM SELF-MONITORING POWER SUPPLY

The BPSM selfmonitoring power supply delivers all the benefits of linear technology with battery supervision for real-time power status information. This unit is the right choice when interfacing to fire alarm systems with auxiliary relays that can’t handle the full current potential of the power supply, or when monitoring power systems for AC failure or DC battery failure. BPSM status LED indicators and status output terminals offer advanced protection.

When interfacing with a fire alarm system where the system's auxiliary relay cannot handle the full current potential of the power supply, or when monitoring power systems for AC failure or DC battery failure, the BPSM linear power supply is the right choice. The power supply status LED indicators and status output terminals combine with BPS features to offer the next stage of protection.

Securitron BPSM-12-6 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) How many locks can a Securitron BPSM power supply run at once?
The BPSM board has 8 polyswitch (PTC) 2A output breakers, so you can feed up to eight separate devices, each protected at 2 amps. The limit is your total draw against the model you pick: 12VDC in 6A, 9A or 15A, or 24VDC in 4A, 6A or 10A. Each output also has a slide switch to connect or disconnect that load from power, which makes testing individual doors straightforward without pulling wire.
2) What is the difference between the Securitron BPS and the BPSM?
Both are linear supplies, but the BPSM adds self-monitoring: AC and DC status LEDs, an AC status output (SPDT, 3 amp), and a battery status output (Form C SPDT, 3 amp). Pick the BPSM when you need to report AC failure or DC battery failure back to a panel, or when you are interfacing to a fire alarm system whose auxiliary relay can't carry the full current potential of the supply. The BPSM provides emergency low current fire release terminals for exactly that case.
3) Does the Securitron BPSM come with a standby battery?
No battery is included. The BPSM has sealed lead acid / gel battery charging capability built in, so you add the batteries to match the voltage of the unit you ordered, 12VDC or 24VDC. During battery operation the supply automatically disconnects the battery if voltage falls below 10.4VDC on a 12VDC unit or 20.8VDC on a 24VDC unit, which protects the battery and the connected system.
4) Should I order the 12VDC or the 24VDC version of the BPSM?
Match it to the hardware you are powering. Maglocks, strikes and electrified exit devices are ordered in either 12 or 24 volt coils, and the BPSM is a single-voltage unit per model, not field selectable: BPSM-12-6, BPSM-12-9 and BPSM-12-15 are 12VDC, and BPSM-24-4, BPSM-24-6 and BPSM-24-10 are 24VDC. If you run 24 volt devices, the 24 volt models give you lower current draw for the same wattage, which is usually the better choice on long wire runs.
5) Is the Securitron BPSM UL Listed for access control?
Yes. The BPSM is UL/cUL listed and carries ANSI/UL 294 listing for access control system units, plus CSA-C22.2 No. 205 and a CSFM listing. That combination is what most institutional and government specs call out for a power supply feeding door hardware.
6) How does the BPSM drop the locks when the fire alarm trips?
Two ways, and that is the point of this model. There are emergency low current fire release terminals so a fire panel auxiliary relay that cannot carry the supply's full current can still command release, and there are line voltage and DC fuses plus status outputs for supervision. The AC status contact (SPDT, 3 amp) and the battery status contact (Form C SPDT, 3 amp) let the fire or security panel see AC loss and battery failure in real time.
7) Will another power supply give me the same fire alarm interface as the Securitron BPSM?
Check the terminal set, not just the amperage. The Securitron BPSM carries emergency low current fire release terminals specifically so it can interface with a fire alarm system whose auxiliary relay cannot switch the full current potential of the supply, and it is UL Listed to ANSI/UL 294 and CSA-C22.2 No. 205. A general-purpose supply like the ACSI 1406BB in the 1400 Series should be verified against your fire alarm interface requirement before you swap it in, since the low current release path is the detail that decides whether the relay in the panel can do the job.
8) How much wall space do I need for a BPSM enclosure?
Plan on an enclosure 18 inches high by 6 inches wide for the BPSM. Leave room in front for the door swing and below for battery leads, and remember the enclosure holds the standby batteries you supply separately.
9) What input power does the BPSM need, and can it go in an unconditioned space?
It runs on 120VAC input. Operating temperature is +32 to +105F (0 to +40C), so a heated electrical or telecom room is fine, but an uninsulated attic, a parking garage in a freezing climate, or a rooftop penthouse that swings outside that band is not a suitable location.
10) Why choose a linear power supply instead of a switching supply for maglocks and card readers?
Linear supplies put out clean DC with low electrical noise, which is why the BPSM is specified where sensitive active electronics share the circuit, readers, controllers and monitored maglocks. Switching supplies are lighter and more efficient but noisier on the DC side. The tradeoff with linear is bulk and heat, which is why the BPSM ships in a 18 by 6 inch enclosure and needs ambient temperature held between +32 and +105F.
11) I only need power for a maglock and no status reporting - do I still need the BPSM?
If the opening needs nothing more than clean DC power to the lock, the monitoring side of the Securitron BPSM is capability you would not be using. The BPSM earns its place when a fire alarm system's auxiliary relay cannot handle the full current potential of the supply, or when the system has to report AC failure or DC battery failure. A plainer supply such as the ACSI 1406BB from the 1400 Series covers the straight power task. Confirm the voltage and amperage your lock draws either way, since the BPSM is built in 12VDC and 24VDC versions.
12) My spec calls for battery backup - does a standard power supply cover it the way the BPSM does?
The Securitron BPSM includes sealed lead acid-gel battery charging capability, with the battery sold separately, and it will automatically disconnect the battery if voltage drops below 10.4VDC on a 12VDC unit or 20.8VDC on a 24VDC unit to protect the system. It also brings out battery status contacts in Form C SPDT 3 Amp. If you are weighing the ACSI 1406BB from the 1400 Series against it, confirm that unit's charging and low-voltage cutoff behavior against what your spec requires, because the supervised battery path is the core of what the BPSM adds.
13) What else does ZenSupply carry if I don't need the BPSM's monitoring outputs?
If you just need DC power at the door and no AC or battery status reporting, the ACSI 1406BB power supply from the 1400 Series is another option we stock. Go with the BPSM when the spec calls for AC failure and battery failure supervision or a low current fire release interface, since those status outputs are the whole reason the M version exists.
