The Gamewell-FCI Power Supply 6 (GFPS-6) panel provides either two (2) Class A, Style Z, four (4) Class B, Style Y, or one (1) Class A and two (2) Class B notification appliance circuits, with a total capacity of 6 amperes.
These circuits may be activated in groups by connection to one (1) or two (2) existing Class A or B notification appliance circuits with operating voltages ranging from 9 to 32 VDC. Either non-coded or coded operation is possible. In addition, the GFPS-6 can provide a temporal pattern Class B output from a non-coded input.
A unique feature allows for programmable synchronized outputs for strobes by four (4) different major manufacturers, System Sensor, Faraday, Gentex or Cooper-Wheelock.
The GFPS-6 contains its own battery charger capable of maintaining batteries of up to 35 AH.
The cabinet provides space for a set of 7 A/H batteries. It is supervised for ground fault, over-current, open circuits and low battery conditions.
Note: Larger batteries require a separate battery box. Ground fault, battery and circuit trouble conditions in the panel automatically open the notification appliance circuit used for activation, transmitting a trouble signal to the main fire alarm control panel.
The ground fault detection circuit may be disabled. The unit contains a set of dry, Form “C” trouble actuated auxiliary contacts, rated 2.5 amp. @ 24 VDC (resistive). Transfer of these contacts for AC power failure can be delayed for a period of six (6) hours.
This delay feature may be disabled. A power-limited, non-resettable auxiliary power output is also available.
The panel can be programmed via DIP switch to disconnect the auxiliary power output from the batteries 30 seconds after AC power failure, in order to avoid running down the batteries from high current devices such as door holders, etc.
