How Does a Remote Power Booster Work?

Power

• A remote power booster is designed with its own independent power supply, separate from that of the security system circuit. When a power failure occurs, the power booster can begin auxiliary power for emergency alarm systems and access control to secure areas.

Batteries

• A remote power booster contains space for batteries, alongside the ability to monitor and control the use of the batteries. Each system contains space for four class B or two class A batteries to provide power for external sources.

Fault

• Each remote power booster contains a notification appliance circuit (NAC), independent from the NAC used by the emergency security system. The remote power booster NAC takes over the operation of the external NACs when a power failure occurs.
