The Edwards BPS10A/230 is a 10-amp booster power supply for 220-240 Vac mains. Specifically, it provides 24 Vdc filtered and regulated power for notification appliance circuits. As a result, a single fire alarm panel can drive more horns, strobes, and speakers without overload.
This supply is UL 864 9th Edition listed. Therefore it is approved for fire alarm system expansion. Furthermore, it carries additional listings for security, access control, and mass-notification applications.
Edwards BPS10A/230 Power Output
The supply provides four Class B NACs, each rated 3 A at 24 Vdc. Also, the four circuits can be converted to two Class A NACs by jumper. Furthermore, total system current cannot exceed 10 A across all NACs. In addition, a separate 200 mA 24 Vdc auxiliary output is available for internal modules.
Signal Synchronization
The BPS10A/230 generates Genesis and Enhanced Integrity strobe synchronization. Therefore connected strobes flash in unison without a separate sync module. Also, it supports 3-3-3 temporal and continuous output rates. Specifically, California temporal rate is available on the BPS10CAA variant.
