The EST (3-PPS/M) is the primary power supply module for the EST3 fire alarm chassis. It is required in every EST3 cabinet.
Specifically, the 3-PPS/M converts AC line input into the regulated DC supply that powers the EST3 backplane. As a result, every other EST3 module — CPUs, SLC drivers, audio modules — draws its power from this single source.
How the EST (3-PPS/M) Fits the EST3 Chassis
The 3-PPS/M plugs into a dedicated slot in the EST3 chassis. Then the rest of the chassis modules pull their operating current from it.
In addition, the power supply also charges the standby batteries that keep the panel running during a utility outage. Therefore, sizing the 3-PPS/M correctly is critical to overall system battery calculations.
Where the EST (3-PPS/M) Is Installed
You will find the 3-PPS/M in EST3 fire alarm cabinets across commercial offices, hospitals, schools, high-rises, and other large facilities. Furthermore, it is also common in EST3 mass-notification installations that share the same chassis platform.
