Advanced 1.5A, 3A or 5A Boxed Power Supply With Battery Charging
Summary
The Advanced MxPro5 power supply units are EN54-4 certified power supply equipment designed for fire alarm systems that comply with BS5839 code of practice. Available in 1.5A, 3.0A and 5.0A versions, these versatile units can be used in any fire alarm installation requiring a 24V supply for operation.
Developed using the latest surface mount technology, the power supply unit/battery charger provides a high-efficiency switch mode power supply suited for almost any application. The units are available in fully enclosed construction with power and fault indication, or alternatively in caged versions for mounting into existing enclosures of various sizes to suit different battery capacities.
The 3.0A and 5.0A versions offer PSE and charger or PSE only options, along with a Serial Link option that allows reporting of PSE status and voltage/current measurements to compatible control panels or modules. Additionally, a 1.5A 12V power supply unit is available for security and access control applications in a fire safety environment, suitable for communications and paging devices, and for connection to Alarm Receiving Centres.

FAQ
What fire alarm standards do these power supply units comply with?
The Advanced MxPro5 power supply units are fully certified to EN54-4:1997 +A1:2002 +A2:2006, making them suitable for any fire alarm system that specifies EN54-4 power supply equipment, including installations complying with BS5839 code of practice.
What are the differences between the 1.5A, 3.0A and 5.0A versions?
The main differences are output current capacity and features. The 1.5A provides 1.0A continuous load with 0.5A battery charge (or 1.15A/0.35A for the 12V version). The 3.0A provides 2.0A continuous load with 1.0A battery charge, whilst the 5.0A provides 3.0A continuous load with 2.0A battery charge. Additionally, the 3.0A and 5.0A versions feature universal AC input and Serial Link options, which are not available on the 1.5A version.
What is the Serial Link option and which models include it?
The Serial Link option is available on the 3.0A and 5.0A versions and allows reporting of PSE status and voltage/current measurements to compatible control panels or modules, enabling remote monitoring of the power supply unit’s performance.
Can these units be used for both enclosed and open installations?
Yes, the power supply units are available in fully enclosed construction with power and fault indication, or alternatively in caged versions designed for mounting into existing enclosures of various sizes to accommodate different battery capacities.
What is the difference between PSE and charger mode versus PSE only mode?
PSE and charger mode provides both continuous power to the load and charges the standby battery as per EN54-4 requirements. PSE only mode provides all available current to the load without battery charging capability. Note that PSE only mode is not EN54-4 compliant, as EN54-4 specifies the provision of two power sources comprising a primary supply (AC mains) and a stand-in supply (battery).
What voltage options are available?
The standard versions provide 24V DC output. Additionally, a 1.5A 12V version (model MXP-549-12V) is available specifically for security and access control applications in a fire safety environment.
