  • Page 17: Nac Power Supply

    4 NAC power supply The AUTOPULSE Z-20 uses a conventional reverse polarity NAC power supply. It provides 6 A and can support non-addressable conventional notification devices and addressable initiating devices. See Figure 12 and Table 4 for the main components of the NAC power supply.
  • Page 18: Nac Power Supply Specifications

    NAC section overview The NAC power supply allows connection to up to four Class A or Class B NAC circuits. Notification appliances within the AUTOPULSE Z-20 are synchronized including any attached 4009 series NAC extenders. Do not mix Wheelock and TYCO branded devices in the same system, they will not be synchronized.
  • Page 19: Specifications

    When NACs are used for Regulated 24 DC appliances, maximum current per NAC reduces to 2 A and total power supply notification current rating is reduced to 3 A. Current used by modules powered from the AUTOPULSE Z-20 power supply must be deducted from the total current.
