Made in the U.S. A.
• Maximum current charge: 1.5 A.
• Maximum battery capacity: 18 AH.
Applications
Example 1: Expand notification appliance power an additional
6.0 A (FCPS-24S6) or 8.0 A (FCPS-24S8). Use up to four
Class B (Style Y) outputs or four Class A (Style Z) outputs
(using ZNAC-4). For example, the FACP notification appliance
circuits will activate the FCPS when reverse-polarity activation
occurs. Trouble conditions on the FCPS are sensed by the
FACP through the notification appliance circuit.
Example 2: Use the FCPS to expand auxiliary regulated 24-
volt system power up to 4.0 A (FCPS-24S6) or up to 6.0 A
(FCPS-24S8). Both resettable and non-resettable power
options are available. Resettable outputs are created by con-
necting the resettable output from the FACP to one or both of
the FCPS inputs.
Example 3: Use addressable control modules to activate the
FCPS instead of activating it through the FACP notification
appliance circuits. This typically allows for mounting the FCPS
at greater distances* away from the FACP while expanding
system architecture in various applications.
For example, an addressable control module is used to acti-
vate the FCPS, and an addressable monitor module is used to
sense FCPS trouble conditions. Local auxiliary power output
from the FCPS provides power to the addressable control
module.
*NOTE: Addressable FACPs are capable of locating control and
monitor modules at distances of up to 12,500 feet (3,810 meters).
Sync Follower/Generator Note
In some installations, it is necessary to synchronize the flash
timing of all strobes in the system for ADA compliance.
Strobes accomplish this by monitoring very short timing pulses
on the NAC power which are created by the FACP. When
installed at the end of a NAC wire run, the FCPS-24S6/-24S8
can track (i.e. “follow”) the strobe synchronization timing
pulses on the existing NAC wire run. This maintains the overall
system flash timing of the additional strobes attaches to the
FCPS.
When the FCPS-24S6/-24S8 is configured (via DIP switch set-
tings) as a “sync follower,” the FCPS’s NAC outputs track the
strobe synchronization pulses present at the FCPS’s sync
input terminal. The pulses originate from an upstream FACP or
other power supply.
When the FCPS-24S6/-24S8 are configured (via DIP switch
settings) as a “sync generator,” the FCPS’s sync input termi-
nals are not used. Rather, the FCPS is the originator of the
strobe synchronization pulses on the FCPS’s NAC outputs. In
“sync generator” mode, the sync type (System Sensor, Whee-
lock, or Gentex) is selectable via DIP switch settings.
