Power Supply Specifications
A power limited power supply, listed for Fire Protection Signaling, (may be located remotely) with both
Primary and Secondary power, must be used for Fire Protective Signaling Applications.
Operating Voltage Range
18-28 VDC
Maximum current draw; (All states)
RPT-485W
0.047 A
RPT-485WF
0.049 A
The maximum allowed voltage drop along the supply loop is limited by the minimum input voltage (18VDC)
measured across TB3 (+24V, power supply common) of the RPT-485W/WF.
Calculating the maximum wiring resistance (Rmax) permitted for the +24V power supply connection.
Formula:
For a Listed Power Supply (listed for Fire Protective Signaling use) with battery supplied secondary power,
the lowest supply voltage possible is 20.4V.
Example: MPS-24A with batteries
RPT-485W:
Rmax = 20.4V-18V = 51 Ohm
0.047A
RPT-485WF:
Rmax = 20.4V-18V = 49 Ohm
0.049A
Rmax= (Lowest Power Supply Voltage Possible) - (Minimum Operating Voltage of RPT-485W/WF )
Maximum Current Required by RPT-485W/WF
