10 Amp Booster Power Supply

Description

The 10 Amp and 6.5 Amp Booster Power Supplies (BPS) are
designed to extend a fire alarm panel’s signaling capacity. The
Booster can be connected to existing Class A or Class B
Notification Appliance Circuits (NACs) or activated via
Signature Series modules. There are four independent 3.0 Amp
NAC circuits supervised in a non-alarm condition.

The Booster has a trouble relay that operates on any Booster
trouble. The Booster contains a battery charger capable of
charging up to two 10 amp hour, 12 V batteries to supply a total
of 24 Vdc.
