Power Supplies

Power to the People!

Surging ahead

Fire legislation in many countries now states any power supply performing a mandatory function of a fire alarm system must be approved to EN54-4. C-TEC’s VdS certified switch-mode power supplies were the first to hit the UK market and are fully compliant with EN54-4 making them ideal for controlling beam detectors, auto-dial communicators, aspirating smoke detectors, electromagnetic door holders, ventilation systems and more. The range comprises 1.5A, 3A and 5A 24V units and a 2A 12V unit. A comprehensive range of non-EN54 certified 12V and 24V PSUs is also available for non-mandatory fire and other life safety applications. Together, the two ranges combine to make C-TEC’s power supply offering one of the most comprehensive in the industry.

Power Me Up!

C-TEC’s EN54-4 certified switch-mode power supply units offer low current consumption, deep discharge battery protection, a single pole volt-free changeover relay, battery impedance monitoring and link-selectable battery charging capacity. Five VDS certified versions are available, four 24V models rated at 1.5A (two types), 3A and 5A, and a 12V 2A model which has an optional STU mounting plate for auto-dial applications. Optional ‘Caged’ and ‘PCB-only’ PSUs with exactly the same electronics are also available.
