Select Power Supply - Step 3

Valcom Power SuppliesSELECT POWER SUPPLY - STEP 3

Built-In power is often included in the Page Control, so an additional Power Supply may not be needed.  The amount of power required for a paging system is based on the quantity and type of Page Control and Speakers/Horns selected.

Easy Selection Considerations:

  • Products Provide or Consume Power and are Assigned a Valcom Power Unit (VPU)
  • Power Provided is +# or Power Consumed is -#
  • Products that neither consume nor provide power are a 0
  • Note: One Valcom Power Unit -50mA, -24 Vdc
  • VPU listings are on the Product Pages
  • Have VPU's left over you can add more speakers
  • Need More - Simply Select a Power Supply with enough VPU's to Make Up the difference
Simply Total Example:
a. Page Control VPU's  Page Control  1 x +30 = +30 VPU Provided  b. Speaker/Horn VPU's  Speakers 15 x -1 = -15 VPU Consumed
c. Subtract b. from a.  = +15 VPU's Left  (NO POWER SUPPLY NEEDED)
