SOLAR POWER SUPPLY MODELS BPSS-10 AND BPSS-20
INSTALLATION AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1.
INTRODUCTION
The Solar Power Supply models BPSS-10 and BPSS-20 combine Securitron’s renowned power
supply technology with solar capability for access control in remote/isolated locations. The BPSS
controller, contained in a NEMA-3R rated cabinet, is specifically designed for outdoor applications
and is provided with its own separately mounted, adjustable solar PV array power panel and
battery backup. Each unit operates at 12 VDC and is intended to operate an access control
device (e.g. DK-26 keypad or card access system) and fail secure intermittent lock (e.g. GL-1
gate lock or electric strike). This manual is intended to provide the installation, electrical
requirements and functional options required to successfully install a BPSS unit.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
It is recommended that a site survey be performed to determine the mounting location prior to
installation. The following should be considered:
The unit should be placed in a position without obstruction of the sun which will allow
optimum use of the PV array panel.
Physical strength of mounting areas should provide adequate support of the installed unit.
Adequate space should be provided for ventilation. Ensure that there is at least 2” of
unobstructed space provided around the four sides of the enclosure.
Ensure wiring can be routed to protect from damage due to intrusion or vandalism. (The
enclosure is provided with knock-outs for conduit connections).
