  • Page 5: Introduction

    Introduction Section 1 Introduction The GFPS-9 is a notification appliance circuit and auxiliary power expander that provides up to 9 amps of filtered, 24 volt power for powering notification appliances and auxiliary devices. The GFPS-9 provides its own AC power connection, battery charging circuit, and battery connections. Used with security and fire alarm control panels, the GFPS-9 enables you to connect and distribute power to many more devices than your panel may normally allow.

The main panel supervises its notification appliance circuits used for communicating with the GFPS-9 the same way it supervises ordinary notification appliance circuits. The signal inputs on the GFPS-9 monitor the polarity of the voltage coming from the main panel’s notification appliance circuits to determine when to operate the notification appliance circuits on the GFPS-9.

    9001-0024 Class B Supervised Input Circuits Figure 4-5 shows Class B supervised wiring from a fire alarm control panel to the GFPS-9. Use an EOL resistor as shown to enable notification appliance circuit input supervision. Some panels use EOLs that have a different value from the 4.7k ohm EOL resistor used by the GFPS-9. In this case, the EOL must be UL listed for the fire alarm control panel (not the GFPS-9).
