Ready-To-Install Power Supplies and Power Accessories
OVERVIEW
Securitron
manufactures a variety of outstanding products designed to supply and monitor 12 or 24
Volts for the operation of security and safety equipment. The BPS Series DC
Power Supplies include battery charging capability with capacities from one to 15 Amps.
The BACS Series provides high capacity 12 and 24 volts AC
power. The model PSM Power Supply Monitor functions as an alarm system
for your BPS series supply and our plug-in DC supplies and potted bridge
rectifier fit into simpler applications.
All models are UL listed and incorporate integral battery
charging capability which keeps the sealed lead acid gel/cell at full charge for
instantaneous stand-by power in case of line voltage failure. All models in the series are
Class 2 rated by UL which means that output wiring need not be run in conduit. The BPS-12-1
and BPS-24-1 are one amp units that incorporate a fused AC input and a regulated DC
output. A 2.5 Amp current limiting automatic breaker protects the stand-by
batteries from driving into a short circuit. Plus, in the event of a DC short, the
supply’s regulator will go into thermal cut-off, switching off the output. The power
supply enclosure is sized large enough to include at least two optional four amp-hour
batteries and the unit can charge up to a 20 AH pack (batteries mounted
externally).

The multi-featured CCS board allows easy hook-up and control for the BPS series 2amp or greater power supplies. The board includes fuse protected AC input, fire alarm interface, slide switches for output disable/reset, LED indicators, automatic breakers for protecting DC outputs and individual screw terminals for positive and negative Class 2 outputs. |

BPS SERIES: CLASS 2
WITH OR WITHOUT BATTERIES
All models are
UL listed and incorporate integral battery charging capability which keeps the sealed lead
acid gel/cell at full charge for instantaneous stand-by power in case of line voltage
failure. All models in the series are Class 2 rated by UL which means
that output wiring need not be run in a conduit. The BPS-12-1 and BPS-24-1
are one amp units that incorporate a fused AC input and a regulated DC output. A 2.5 Amp
current limiting automatic breaker protects the stand-by batteries from
driving into a short circuit. Plus, in the event of a DC short, the supply's regulator
will go into thermal cut-off, switching off the output. The power supply enclosure is
sized large enough to include at least two optional four amp-hour batteries and the unit
can charge up to a 20 AH pack (batteries mounted externally).
BPS SERIES WITH CCS
CONTROL MODULE
For larger applications and installations where multiple devices
are being powered, Securitron offers the higher-amperage BPS Power Supply
Series with integral CCS-4 or CCS-8 Power Control Module. The CCS board provides a fused
line voltage input and four or eight DC outputs on separate UL
Class 2 Listed current limited automatic circuit breakers. Each circuit can be individually
turned on and off via a slide switch and the powered status of
each is shown by an LED. There is no need for extra AC wiring of additional dedicated
supplies in a multiple zone device installation and in the event of a DC short, the problem
is confined to the zone in difficulty. The BPS continues to power all other
stations, uninterrupted by the faulty component. An LED indicator light on the front cover
illuminates when the power supply module is in operation and the unit will charge up to 20
AH battery packs (for larger packs, consult the factory).

The design of Securitron's larger power supplies employs multiple outputs. This allows the optimum configuration for multiple door, electric lock installations. A single power supply is mounted next to the fire alarm system which will release all the doors in the event of a fire. Other Securitron products that work with the complete system such as the Power Supply Monitor or Lock Control Panel are also mounted next to the power supply. Then, low voltage, inexpensive DC wiring goes to each door. This saves not only the expense of multiple supplies but also the expense of multiple AC drops at each door. |
ADDING ADDITIONAL
CLASS 2 OUTPUTS AND FIRE ALARM INTERFACE
While BPS series
supplies are delivered with four or eight outputs depending on the model, the CCB-8
"slave" board may be optionally ordered to add eight additional Class 2
outputs. The more boards you add, the more outputs become available. Also, for added
safety, the CCS-8 module has emergency release terminals. These
can be broken by an external switch opening such as a relay controlled by the fire alarm
system. This will automatically release all the devices being driven by the supply.
PM SERIES: AN ECONOMY
POWER SOLUTION WITH BATTERY BACKUP
Securitron's PM-12
and PM-24 power supplies are similar to the BPS-12-1 and BPS-24-1 units
except they employ separate plug-in transformers which interconnect with
a circuit board housed in a steel enclosure. Since the transformer plugs into a wall
socket, installation does not require the services of an electrician. The
PM units also feature regulated, adjustable power with integral sealed lead acid/gel cell
battery charging capability while meeting Class 2 electrical
requirements.
THE UL LISTED BACS
SERIES: HIGH CAPACITY AND MULTI-ZONE
Primarily
intended for powering CCTV cameras, Securitron's BACS-12-20 supplies 20
Amps of 12 VAC power and the model BACS-24-10 supplies 10
Amps of 24VAC power. The BACS series employs the same multiple zone control
concept as the BPS series as it includes nearly identical control boards (part number CCS-8A),
which provide eight automatically breakered outputs with individual control switches and
LED's. As with the BPS series, additional "slave" boards may be ordered to add
eight extra zones (part number CCB-8A).
