The Honeywell HPFF12(E) and HPFF12CM(E) are Notification Appliance Circuit (NAC) Expander Power Supplies
designed to extend the power capabilities of existing NACs
and provide power for auxiliary devices. The HPFF12 and
HPFF12CM connects to any 12 or 24V Fire Alarm Control
Panel (FACP) or operates stand-alone.
They provide regulated and filtered 24VDC power to four
NAC's and an auxiliary output. The NAC outputs are rated at
3.0 amps each and the auxiliary output is rated at 2.0 amps
(this output is continuously supplied, even in alarm, and therefore must be taken into account for power supply loading and
battery size calculations). The combined output cannot exceed
12.0 amps.
The HPFF12 and HPFF12CM provide independent output circuit supervision so in the event of a NAC fault they can notify
the attached FACP. In addition they have a trouble memory
feature that displays past troubles (by NAC) for rapid diagnostics. Synchronization is built in for five appliance brands.
The HPFF12 and HPFF12CM have two fully independent
supervised initiating circuits that can be used for synchronized
strobes and coded horns. Their NAC outputs may be configured as any of the following:
- four Class B (Style Y)
- two Class A (Style Z)
- two Class B and one Class A
- four Class A with the optional HPP31076 Class A adapter
These power supplies contain an internal Battery charger
capable of charging up to 26.0 amp-hour (AH) batteries.
The HPFF12 is mounted in a lockable wall cabinet that can
accommodate up to two 18AH batteries. The HPFF12CM is
designed to mount in Notifier’s equipment series enclosure
(order separately). Each HPFF12CM can accommodate two
12AH batteries.
One of the most challenging aspects of a retrofit application is
locating the existing End-of-Line (EOL) resistor. In these applications that have EOL values other than the 3.9k normally
used with the HPFF12, a single resistor matching the existing
EOL can be used as a reference for all the outputs. This feature speeds installation and system checkout because the
actual EOL does not need to be located and changed in the
circuit. The reference resistor must be within the range of 1.9k
to 25k.
NOTE: 4 separate programming resistors for the HPFF12 are provided in the hardware kit shipped with each HPFF12(E) and
HPFF12CM(E). They are 3.9K (5 of these are provided, need only
1 for programming), 2.2K (1 each), 4.7K (1 each) and 10K (1 each)
