LifeSafety Power M8/M8P
The M8 smart power controller communicates with the NL4 network module and provides eight (8) monitored and controlled relay outputs accessible from a network or internet.
The M8 provides eight (8) control INPUTS capable of voltage or dry contact activation and eight (8) controlled and monitored OUTPUTS, with each output network programmable for fail-safe, fail-secure, fire alarm over ride, and AC loss over ride for egress lock control. Each output is also programmable to either of two voltages available when used in a dual voltage iSCAN power system.
Each output may also be individually enabled/disabled through a browser interface and the voltage and current of each output may be monitored via network or internet, and trigger points may be set up on each output to generate an alert when that output is outside of selected parameters.
Product Features
- Comprehensive output zone control
- Provides installer selectable output voltage, when used in a dual voltage system
- Dual voltage bus and prewired cables connect the M8 to the power supply or additional accessory modules
- Fiberglass PCB for improved environmental performance, high efficiency operation
- RoHS compliant
