Main Board Wiring Specications
There are several wiring requirements to consider before connecting circuits to the main board: (1) the circuit separation,
and (2) wiring types.
Circuit Separation
Proper separation between the different types of circuits must be maintained between Power Limited, Non-Power Limited, and
High Voltage wiring to reduce electrical interferences, transient voltage or voltage ratings.
ySeparations between the different wiring types must be maintained by at least ¼ inch and the wire insulation must be for the
higher voltage.
yThe control panel cabinet has sufcient knockouts located around the periphery allowing the installer to maintain separation

Battery Circuit Calculations
Before selecting the battery, it is important to determine the minimum size batteries for standby and alarm times desired for each
application and SLC current draw. If the wrong batteries are installed in a specic application or incorrect current draw used, the
proper standby and minimum alarm time will not be present.
The battery circuit is rated for 8 to 55 AH batteries and will operate the panel alarm for at least 24 hours and 5 minutes. The
cabinet will house up to two (2) 8 AH or two (2) 18 AH batteries.
Please use the worksheets listed below to calculate the battery size and current draw required for each application and the SLC:

enclosure, part #SSU00500.
2) NFPA 72 requires 24 hours of standby power followed by 5 minutes alarm activation.
3) NFPA 12, 12A requires 24 hours and ve minutes of alarm activation.
4) Door holder circuits congured to disconnect upon AC loss need not be included in the
battery standby calculation since they will not draw power during that time. Door holders
will contribute to standby current draw when AC is present.
5) Total current must not exceed power supply rating (5A).
6) LED/Relay current must be accounted for in the battery calculation for the supplying source.

Isolator Device Load Calculation
This section covers the distinction between an addressable sensor and an isolator to correctly calculate the total SLC device load.
A device uses an address and consumes power. Whereas, an isolator does not use an address, but does consume power.
The following scenarios explain how to calculate the current device load based on the SLC conguration.
Scenario 1: Class A Loop – Isolated Devices Conguration
In this conguration, each sensor and isolator device / module counts as one (1) when calculating the total device load.
Formula: Total # addressable devices + Total # isolators = Total power unit allocations (or device load)
Figure 3. Example of a Class A Loop – Isolated Branches
Conguration Summary:
Total addressable devices = 8 (sensors only) out of 75 possible addressable points.
Total device load = 17 (calculated as follows: 8 sensors + 9 isolators) out of 127 power unit allocations.
Example: If a conguration uses 75 sensors, up to 52 isolators may be supported.
Solution: 127 - 75 = 52

PFC-6075R • 5403594 • REV D • 9/14
Scenario 2: Class B Loop – Isolated Branch Conguration
In this conguration, there are 4 separate branches each with an isolation device / module and 1 or more sensors. Each sensor
requires an address, as shown in Scenario #1 (isolators do not require an address). However, in this scenario, each isolator
consumes power equal to 8 devices. To calculate the total device load, refer to the following rule:
Device Load Rule for Branch Congurations
Count all devices, including isolators, on the branch.
• If the count is <=8, allocate 8 as the device load.
• If the count is >8, allocate the actual device count number.
Figure 4. Example of a Class B Loop – Isolated Branches
Conguration Summary:
Branch #1 has 3 devices = 8 power allocations
Branch #2 has 2 devices = 8 power allocations
Branch #3 has 10 devices = 10 power allocations
Branch #4 has 4 devices = 8 power allocations
Total addressable devices = 15 (sensors only) out of 75 addressable points.
Total device load = 34 out of a possible 127 power unit allocations.

Battery Connections
The battery charging circuit is located on the main panel in the lower left portion of the board. The maximum battery charging
circuit is 1.0 amp DC; the charging voltage is approximately 27.3 VDC and is supervised.
Note: The battery should be clearly labeled as “Sealed Lead Acid Battery” or equivalent UL listed or UL Recognized.
Connect the battery wire leads to the terminal connections, as shown. Batteries should be replaced every ve (5) years or sooner
depending on annual testing.

Main Supply Circuit
The AC terminals are located in the upper left hand portion of the main board. The main board supervises the main AC power and
provides indication that the AC power is absent.

The terminals are rated at 120 VAC/240 VAC 50/60 Hertz and are marked accordingly on the board. The earth ground connection
is marked as “G” and is the furthest connection from the line voltage connection.
The AC input power ratings are as follows:
•y Maximum of 3A at the nominal 120 VAC rating.
•y Maximum of 2A at the nominal 240 VAC rating.
