DSC PC5200 PowerSeries 12VDC 1A Power Supply Module

The DSC PC5200 is a supervised auxiliary power supply module designed for the PowerSeries intrusion control panel ecosystem. It extends the current capacity of a PowerSeries installation by delivering up to 1 Amp at 12 VDC to power additional sensors, detectors, keypads, and peripheral modules beyond what the main panel's onboard AUX output can support. The module is fully supervised for AC failure, low battery, and AUX failure conditions, ensuring the panel can generate a Trouble indication if any fault or tampering is detected. Up to four PC5200 modules can be deployed on a single system alongside one PC5204 power supply output module, providing scalable, distributed power for large or complex commercial installations. Compatible with the PC1616, PC1832, and PC1864 PowerSeries control panels, and supported on PC5020 v3.1 firmware and higher, the PC5200 is an essential building block for professional life-safety and security system integrators who need reliable, supervised auxiliary power distribution.

Key features & benefits

• 1 Amp @ 12 VDC Auxiliary Output — Delivers up to 1 Amp at 12 VDC, allowing installers to power additional sensors, keypads, and modules that exceed the main panel's onboard AUX current budget.
• Full Supervision — Fully supervised for AC failure, low battery, and AUX failure. The panel reports a Trouble condition immediately if the module is disconnected or a fault is detected.
• Scale Up to Four Modules Per System — Up to four PC5200 modules can be connected on a single system alongside one PC5204, providing highly scalable distributed power for large commercial installations.
• PowerSeries Panel Compatibility — Compatible with PC1616, PC1832, and PC1864 PowerSeries control panels, and supported on PC5020 v3.1 firmware and higher including Power864 installations.
• Low Keybus Current Draw — Draws only 20mA from the panel Keybus, minimizing impact on the host control panel's own power budget while adding a full 1A of auxiliary capacity.
• Installer-Ready Module Supervision — By default, all modules are supervised upon installation so the panel can indicate a Trouble condition if a module is removed from the system—no additional programming required.
