Appendix D: Power Supply and Battery Calculations
* Assume three Initiating Circuits are in alarm.
' Use 0.084 for five minutes of alarm as a multiplier figure.
Using the Mircom MPD-65P 2-wire photoelectric smoke detector. See Appendix A for other compatible
smoke detectors.
Total Current Requirement:ALARM (B)______ Amps. (Value obtained from column B)
Battery Capacity Requirement:
([STANDBY (A) ______ ] X [(24 or 60 Hours) ___ ]) + ([ALARM (B) ______ ] X [Alarm in Hr.] _____) = (C)
______AH
Total Alarm Current: Must be 6 amperes or less for FA-300 Series. Indicating Circuits must not to exceed 5
amperes.
Battery Selection: Multiply (C) by 1.20 to derate battery.
