Siemens PAD-4-9A

Description

Used with Siemens − Fire Safety fire alarm control panels (FACPs), the Distributed Power Supply PAD-4 Unit is a NAC expander with a built-in, auxiliary-power output. Each PAD-4 unit distributes additional power in buildings for audible and visual indicators that conform to the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). The Siemens NACs, which connect with alarm signaling devices, have been designed to provide the highest level of reliability and performance. Signal coding on the circuits is accomplished through integrated circuits (rather than relays), which eliminates mechanical wear on the output circuits. The PAD-4 unit provides constant 24VDC output voltage to each NAC − independent of voltage fluctuations on the primary or secondary power source. As a result, a larger voltage drop and a greater wire length for each NAC are supported by each PAD-4.
