Lifesafety Power FPO250-C8D8E2 Access Power Supply 250W

Product Description

The LIFESAFETY POWER FPO250-C8D8E2 is a multi-output access control power supply designed to provide regulated DC power to electronic locking hardware, access control panels, and auxiliary devices in security and access management installations. Rated at 250 watts total output capacity, the unit delivers up to 20 amps at 12 volts and up to 10 amps at 24 volts, giving installers the flexibility to power mixed-voltage lock and reader hardware from a single supply. Eight lock and auxiliary output circuits are included, allowing direct connection and individual circuit supervision of multiple locking devices. Licensed security and low-voltage electricians are the primary installers of this equipment.

The FPO250-C8D8E2 is suited for commercial and institutional access control applications where centralized, distributed power distribution is required. Typical deployments include multi-door access systems in office buildings, healthcare facilities, schools, and government installations. The eight lock and auxiliary outputs allow independent control of door strikes, magnetic locks, electric latch retraction hardware, and associated peripheral devices without requiring external distribution hardware. The E2 designation indicates an expanded feature configuration within the FPO250 product family, providing enhanced output management capability for more complex system architectures.

Key Features

• 250 watt total output capacity supports multi-door access control deployments
• Dual output voltages: 20 amps at 12 volts and 10 amps at 24 volts from a single chassis
• Eight lock and auxiliary output circuits for direct connection of locking hardware and peripherals
• E2 expanded configuration for enhanced output management in larger system designs
• Sold as a single unit, suitable for use as a primary or distributed power node

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and new-installation power supply for commercial access control systems requiring dual-voltage distributed power with individual lock output circuits.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed low-voltage electrician or security systems technician in accordance with applicable NEC requirements for power-limited and access control wiring. Disconnect and lock out all input AC power before making any wiring connections to output circuits or internal terminals. Verify that the total connected load across all output circuits does not exceed the rated output capacity of the supply. Follow the manufacturer data sheet for output circuit configuration, fusing, and any battery backup connections specific to this model.
