      FAQs

      How many doors or devices can the PS480B power?

      The PS480B is PDQ's largest power supply in this line, rated 8A @ 24VDC across 8 individually PTC-fused outputs. That's double the outputs of the PS440B, making it suited to larger multi-door installations or buildings where several electrified locks or exit devices need to run from one panel.

      What kind of battery backup does the PS480B support?

      The PS480B accommodates two 7AH batteries (sold separately) for backup power, keeping access control operational during a utility outage. This matters for code compliance on fail-safe locking hardware, which must either release or continue functioning on backup power when mains power is lost.

      What's the difference between the PS480B and the PS440B?

      The PS480B doubles the PS440B's output count, going from 4 PTC-fused outputs to 8, while both include battery backup capability. Specify the PS480B for larger installations with more doors or devices than a 4-output unit can accommodate.

      Is the PS480B UL listed?

      Yes, it's UL Listed to UL 294, 6th Edition, the Standard for Access Control System Units, and includes fire alarm link capability for integration with a building's fire alarm system.

      What hardware is the PS480B designed to run?

      It's built for solenoid and motor-driven exit devices, electric locks, and electric strikes, with an interface relay that isolates locking device current from the control switch and surge suppression protecting both fail-safe and fail-secure outputs across all 8 outputs.
