24 VDC Power
You may connect multiple PS-5N7s to the
same 24V power supply as long as the total
line loss is within specified limits. Follow the
information given below to calculate the
allowable line losses.
CAUTION
Failure to follow these guidelines
may result in excessive voltage
drops that cause improper or no
operation of the system.
To determine the total line loss, and there-
fore, the maximum cable length permitted,
use the following values and limits.
V
—The maximum allowable voltage
max
loss due to wire resistance. V
not be more than 4V. (See Table 2.)
I
—The total alarm current drawn by
max
all PS-5N7 modules connected to the 24
VDC supply. If a PIM-1 is used in the
system, include its current. (See the I
values for the approved power supplies
at the bottom of this column. See Table
1 also.)
R
—The value of wire resistance
max
that results in a 4 volt drop due to Imax.
To calculate the total line loss, use the fol-
lowing equation:
R
= V

The Rmax result obtained with this equation
is the total of all wire resistance in ohms in
