Maximal3FDV/5FDV/7FDV Series (PTC) Installation Guide
- 3 -
MaximalFDV Series Overview:
Altronix MaximalFDV Access Power/Controllers distribute and switch power to access control systems and acces-
sories. They convert a 220VAC (working range 198VAC - 256VAC), 50/60Hz input into sixteen (16) independently
controlled 12VDC or 24VDC PTC protected outputs. The outputs are activated by an open collector sink or normally
open (NO) dry trigger input from an Access Control System, Keypad, Push Button, REX PIR, etc. Units will route
power to a variety of access control hardware devices including: Mag Locks, Electric Strikes, Magnetic Door
Holders, etc. The FACP Interface enables Emergency Egress, Alarm Monitoring, or may be used to trigger other
auxiliary devices. The fire alarm disconnect feature is individually selectable for any or all of the sixteen (16) outputs.

MaximalFDV Series Features:
ACM8CB Access Power Controller Modules:
• Sixteen (16) independently trigger controlled outputs. Output options:
a) Sixteen (16) Fail-Safe filtered power outputs.
b) Sixteen (16) Fail-Secure filtered power outputs.
c) Any combination of the above.
• Sixteen (16) Access Control System trigger inputs. Input trigger options:
a) Sixteen (16) normally open (NO) dry trigger inputs.
b) Sixteen (16) open collector inputs.
c) Any combination of the above.
• Sixteen (16) unswitched filtered aux. power outputs (outputs are rated @ 2.5A).
• Red LEDs on ACM8CB board indicate individual outputs are triggered (relays energized).
• Fire Alarm disconnect (latching or non-latching) is individually selectable for any or all of the
sixteen (16) outputs.
Fire Alarm disconnect input trigger options:
a) Normally open (NO) or normally closed (NC) dry trigger input.
b) Polarity reversal input from FACP signaling circuit.
• Green LED on ACM8CB board indicates FACP disconnect is triggered.
• FACP output relay indicates that FACP input is triggered (form “C” contact rated @ 1A/28VDC).
• eFlow Power Supply/Charger board provides common power for both ACM8CB Access Power Controller
boards (factory wiring) and all connected access control devices (field wiring).
• ACM8CB board main fuses are rated @ 10A. Output PTCs are rated @ 2.5A.
