Maximal3F/Maximal5F/Maximal7F Access Power Controllers (Fused)
- 3 -
MaximalF Series Overview:
MaximalF Access Power Controllers distribute and switch power to access control systems and accessories. They
convert a 120VAC 60Hz input into sixteen (16) independently controlled 12VDC or 24VDC fuse protected outputs.
These Fail-Safe/Fail-Secure power outputs may be converted to dry form “C” contacts. 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. All interconnecting equipment must be UL Listed.

The DC output for these power supplies are not power-limited. If a power-limited output is required in the end-
product application, the DC output from the power supply must be connected to a separately Listed control unit
or accessory board that provides power-limited outputs. The product(s) providing the power-limited output(s)
must be listed as appropriate for the particular end-product application (access control), and wired in accordance
with the products installation instructions. Class 1 wiring methods, separation of circuits, and proper fire-rated
enclosures all must be considered when connecting the DC output of the power supply to the end-product devices.
The auxiliary outputs of these units are power-limited.
