Another accessory salvaged from an older security system but still perfectly useable across a number of security units which use these to provide power/charging to a security system based on a Lead Acid battery backup facility.
Not interested in using this with a security system? Just about any equipment that requires 15V AC (under load) at a maximum current of 1.5A can be supplied by this plug pack.
This advertisement is for the AC Adapter ONLY ...
DSS (DETECTION SECURITY) - AC Power Adapter
Country of origin is not stated although I am pretty sure that DSS is/was an Australian Security provider
Model: 46201
Australian wall plug style of fitting (3 pin GPO)
Designed to supply 15V AC output @ 1.5A current
Output lead which is terminated with bare wires for connection to the alarm system main board
DIMENSIONS:
85mm height x 57mm wide x 65mm deep
WEIGHT: 560g (quite heavy for a smallish plug pack)
TESTING:
Being used (and easy to test), I undertook some basic tests.
AC output WITHOUT load is measured at 18.35V, this will drop to something approaching 15V depending upon the current drawn.
AC output is on the Blue & Red colour coded wires (why not the same colour? It beats me, this is afterall AC and not polarity sensitive)
The Green wire connects directly to the electrical Earth pin on the wall plug, with no electrical connection to either of the AC output wires
COSMETIC CONDITION:
USED
Clean
NO damage to the plug pack body or the AC output lead
NO discolouration to the light Grey body of the plug pack
Wall plug pins are all shiny and clean
This wall plug adapter has now been placed into a sealed clear plastic packet
