Warnings

Installation and service should be performed only by

h

qualified service personnel and should conform to all
local codes

To reduce the risk of electric shock or fire, do not

h

expose this equipment to rain or moisture

This equipment shall be installed in a manner which

i

prevents unintentional operation by employees,
cleaning personnel, or others working in the prem­ises, by falling objects, customers, building vibration,
or similar causes

This equipment is not intended for use within the pa-

i

tient care areas of a Health Care Facility

Replace fuses only with the same type and rating as

Regulatory Information

The equipment discussed within this manual has been test­ed to the following standards:

• UL294, UL603, UL1076

• ULC S318, ULC S319

• CSA C22.2 #107.1, CSA C22.2 #205

FCC Information

Note: This equipment has been tested and found to comply

with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to Part
15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide
reasonable protection against harmful interference when
the equipment is operated in a commercial environment.
This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio fre­quency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance
with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interfer­ence to radio communications. Operation of this equipment
in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference in
which case the user will be required to correct the interfer­ence at his own expense.

Conventions Used Within this Manual

Positional information (e.g. top, bottom, up, down, left,
right, etc.) is referenced with the board or enclosure in the
orientation shown in the illustrations in this manual.

To prevent impaired operation, ensure that all wiring

i

is routed and secured to prevent accidental open or
short circuit conditions

The system and any batteries (if used) should be

i

tested at least once per year to ensure proper opera­tion

Batteries (if used) should be maintained at an am-

i

bient temperature of between 32 and 120 degrees
Fahrenheit (0-49 Celsius) or premature loss of bat­tery power could occur

Installation and Operation

Section 1 – Installation and Operation

The following pages cover the installation, setup, and basic operation of the FPO series power supplies.

1.1 Mounting

Figure 1 Figure 2 Figure 3

Mounting an Enclosure

Use the following procedure when mounting a wall-mount enclosure
(figure 1).

1. (Optional) Remove the enclosure’s cover.

2. Locate the top keyhole mounting holes in the back of the enclosure.

3. Mark and pre-drill the locations for the keyholes in the mount­ing surface.

4. Partially install two fasteners appropriate for the surface on
which the enclosure is being installed. Leave the heads of the
fasteners approximately ¼" out from the surface. Minimum
fastener size should be #10 or larger.

5. Hang the enclosure on the two fasteners and mark the loca­tions of the remaining mounting holes.

6. Remove the enclosure and pre-drill the locations for the re­maining mounting holes.

7. Re-hang the enclosure on the top mounting fasteners, start
the remaining fasteners and tighten all fasteners.

8. Reinstall the enclosure’s cover, if removed in step 1.

i It is the installer’s responsibility to determine the ap-

propriate fastening system for use with the surface the
enclosure is being mounted to.

i For UL1076 applications, after installation is complete, the

installer must install the two supplied 1" long screws to the
edge of the enclosure's cover for additional security.

Mounting a Sub Assembly to an Enclosure

Third Party sub assemblies will be mounted in one of three methods
based on the supplied mounting hardware (figure 5).

Mounting an FPO PS Board to an Enclosure

Use the following procedure when mounting an FPO power sup­ply to a LifeSafety Power enclosure (figure 2).

1. Locate the appropriate mounting holes in the enclosure and
snap the four or six standoffs provided into the holes.

2. Align the board mounting holes (mounting hole locations are
indicated in the drawing above) with the standoffs and snap the
board onto the standoffs. Be sure the board is properly oriented
before snapping the board onto the standoffs (Figure 3).

3. When two FPO/FPV boards are installed, the larger shall be
located on top (figure 4).
