System Power; Standby And Alarm Current; A Power Supply - VES Compas Fire Alarm Control Panel Installation Manual

Appendix A: Specifications

System Power

When AC power is present, the system operates entirely from AC power (primary). During an AC power failure,
the entire system load is transferred to the standby batteries (secondary).

Standby and Alarm Current

Standby and Alarm Currents of the Compas Fire Alarm Control Panel with two loops are provided below. Two
loop operation includes System A Panel Module, System B Panel Module, and the Dual Loop Panel Module.
Two loop operation represents the minimum board configuration of the Compas Fire Alarm Control Panel. The
data excludes all external loads. Primary loads assume a fully charged battery.

5.25 A Power Supply

Standby Load (mA) Alarm Load (mA)
244 mA @ 115 VAC 272 mA @ 115 VAC Line current for standby and alarm when battery charge current is less than 30
162 mA @ 230 VAC 177 mA @ 230 VAC Line current for standby and alarm when battery charge current is less than 30
560 mA @ 24 VDC 650 mA @ 24 VDC
10.25 A Power Supply
Standby (mA) Alarm (mA)
220 mA @ 115 VAC 234 mA @ 115 VAC Line current for standby and alarm when battery charge current is less than 30
176 mA @ 230 VAC 181 mA @ 230 VAC Line current for standby and alarm when battery charge current is less than 30
550 mA @ 24 VDC 620 mA @ 24 VDC
The data provided above for standby and alarm current includes loads of a two loop fire control panel alone and
excludes current loads from external devices or equipment.
