LifeSafety Power has revealed its B150 Intelligent Step-Down Converter that provides economical remote power management, monitoring and control of power solutions.
The company notes that the B150 dual-voltage conversion modules offer an additional voltage in a FlexPower Unified Power Solution by converting a higher input voltage to a lower output.
LifeSafety Power’s FlexPower series yields managed power capabilities in a single enclosure with RS485 communications and when paired with LifeSafety Power NetLink technology.
The B150
The B150 is jumper selectable for a fixed 12VDC or an adjustable, user-defined range between 3-18VDC at six amps maximum current.
An on-board LED display provides status updates on output voltage, current and input power.
Combined with NetLink managed power technology, users receive notifications of power fault or voltage drops and can also perform remote power cycling and programming.
The company claims the B150 allows for quick, onsite power adjustments for system components with unique needs, such as:
- Access control readers
- Security cameras
- Lighting
- Wireless
- IT devices and components.
