The Potter Electric Signal PSN-1000 is an intelligent 10-amp notification power expander and P-Link repeater. First, the unit connects to the host fire alarm control panel through the P-Link RS-485 bus. Then, the host panel programs and supervises the PSN-1000 over that link. As a result, integrators add NAC capacity remotely without losing panel-level visibility.
Potter Electric Signal PSN-1000 outputs
The PSN-1000 provides six (6) Class B notification outputs. Alternatively, integrators configure it as three (3) Class A circuits. Specifically, each output is regulated, power-limited, and rated at 3 amps maximum. In addition, the PSN-1000 has two (2) programmable dry contact inputs. Furthermore, the dry contact inputs are Class B and supervised.
Each output is independently configurable. Specifically, options include Quadrasync strobe sync, constant power, ANSI Temporal Code 3, and pass-through pattern matching. Quadrasync covers Potter/AMSECO, Gentex, Cooper/Wheelock, and System Sensor strobes.
System architecture
The PSN-1000 may be installed up to 6,500 feet from the host control panel. Furthermore, the PSN-1000 repeats the P-Link communication for another 6,500 feet downstream. Therefore, system designers reach far-flung notification zones without dedicated home-run wiring.
Up to 31 power supplies per control panel are supported. In addition, the PSN-1000 supports system-wide synchronization across all power supplies. As a result, large-system strobes stay in cadence panel-wide.
