Remote Booster Power Supply MIRBPS10A
The Remote Booster Power Supply is a self-contained 24 Vdc power supply ⭐
✅ designed to augment fre alarm audible and visual power requirements as well as provide power ⭐
✅for auxiliary, access control and security applications ⭐
✅ The booster contains all of the necessary circuits to monitor and charge batteries, control and supervise four Class B or two Class A NAC circuits and monitor two controlling inputs external sources. It also provides the ability to synchronize Genesis series strobes to UL 1971 requirements, and offers independent horn control over two wires. For comprehensive confguration and wiring details, refer to the BPS Application Guide, 85001-0582.

Application
The MIRBPS provides additional power and circuits for notification appliances and other 24 Vdc loads. It is listed for indoor dry locations and can easily be installed where needed. Fault conditions are indicated on the on-board diagnostic LEDs, opening the MIRBPS input sense circuit and the trouble relay (if programmed). While this provides indication to the host system, the MIRBPS can still be activated upon command. A separate AC
Fail contact is available on the MIRBPS circuit board, which can be programmed for trouble or AC Fail. There are seven on-board diagnostic LEDs: one for each NAC fault, one for battery fault, one for ground fault, and one for AC power.
The unique dual-input activation circuits of the MIRBPS can be activated by any voltage 6 to 45 VDC (filtered-regulated) or 11 to 33 Vdc (full-wave rectified, unfiltered). The first input circuit can be configured to activate 1-4 of the four possible outputs. The second input circuit can be configured to control circuits 3 and 4. When outputs are configured for auxiliary operation, these circuits can be configured to stay on or automatically deactivate 30 seconds after AC power is lost. This feature makes these circuits ideal for door holder applications. The MIRBPS also has a separate 200 mA 24 Vdc output that can be used to power internal activation modules.
MIRBPS NACs can be configured for a 3-3-3 temporal or continuous output. California temporal rate outputs are also available on certain models. This makes the MIRBPS ideal for applications requiring signaling rates that are not available the main system. In addition to the internally generated signal rates, the MIRBPS can also be configured to follow the coded signal rate of the main system NACs. This allows for the seamless expansion of existing NACs. The MIRBPS enclosure has mounting brackets for up to three Signature modules to the right of the circuit board.

Typical Wiring
+ Single or cascaded booster anywhere on a notification appliance circuit
Existing NAC end-of-line resistors are not required to be installed at the booster’s terminals. This allows multiple boosters to be driven a single NAC circuit without the need for special configurations.
