"HIGH RELIABILITY, LOW COST, STACKABLE POWER SUPPLY FOR SECURITY SYSTEMS" (SECURITAC)

Start date: Nov 1, 2008, End date: Apr 30, 2011,

"Security systems (including fire, intrusion, access control, and voice alarm) typically contain an AC-DC power supply to deliver power to the system and to charge and maintain 12V batteries, which provide the “secondary source” during a mains failure. The combined power supply-charger-battery system represents a key component of such systems in terms of cost and contribution to system reliability ...
