10 Amp Booster Power Supply

Description
The 10 Amp and 6.5 Amp Booster Power Supplies (BPS) are
designed to extend a fire alarm panels 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.

Wiring the Booster Power Supply


Wiring placement
To avoid noise, keep input wiring isolated from high current
output and power limited wiring. Separate high current
input/output from low current. Separate power limited from nonpower limited wiring.
Wiring within the cabinet should be routed around the cabinet,
not across the printed circuit board.

Wiring for internal booster activation of NACs


You can turn on the Booster Power Supply using the batteries
rather than using one of NAC/AUX outputs. This leaves all four
NAC outputs available to power NAC devices. The Signature
loop controller issues commands to activate the NACs during
fire alarm conditions. In this application, a Signature module
receives the command and draws power from batteries wired to
the Booster. The Signature module routes the battery power into
the Booster's Sense 1 terminal. When the Booster receives power
from the Signature module, it activates the NACs.

24 Vdc Notification Appliance Circuit (NAC) specifications

Note: No "T" tapping

permitted.

The NAC cable must be a minimum 18 gauge. Distance limits


are determined using the maximum allowable circuit resistance
and cable manufacturer's specifications. Restrictions apply when
calculating the wire size for the NACs:
1. Minimum supply voltage available is 18.9 V.
2. Minimum required circuit voltage at any NAC is 17 Vdc.
3. Maximum alarm current required for all NACs.

Using Ohm's law, the NAC current requirement, and a voltage


drop of 1.9 volts (18.9 - 17), the maximum allowable NAC
resistance is determined as follows:
Vdrop
Rmax = ------Imax

Rmax = Maximum allowable NAC resistance


Imax = Maximum NAC current requirement
Vdrop = Maximum allowable voltage drop
from power supply to NAC

Using this formula, the maximum permissible circuit resistance


for a loaded (2.5 A) circuit is 0.76 > as follows:
1.9 V
0.76 = ------2.5 A
Using the Load vs. Distance table, the maximum allowable length
(D) of any listed wire gauge pair is determined as follows:
Rmax
D = ------- X 1000
R/1000'PAIR

D = Distance in feet
Rmax =Maximum allowable wire resistance
R/1000' PAIR = wire resistance per 1000' pair
