Power supply calculator

by Mark Rowe

The alarm and security product manufacturer Ajax Systems has launched a new tool – Fibra power supply calculator. It’s for installers of the company’s wired products to check wired security systems (pictured) before installation.

The Fibra power calculator provides information about the power consumption of devices and lets checking whether the wired system project will work in practice. Once the calculations are finished, installers can download results as a PDF file.

As soon as the programme detects problem areas in the project, it highlights them and offers solutions. An installer can adjust object configuration to fix power issues: replace the cable, turn off or remove devices, change distances — everything is monitored in real time.

A quick guide on how the calculator works:

To start the calculation, select your hub model;
Add the line of devices to the hub;
Enter cable resistance for every 100 metres length of cable in Ohms;
Add the devices to the Fibra line by indicating the cable length between the previous and the next device; and
Obtain power and voltage calculations for each device.

The public beta version of Fibra power supply calculator is on this link: https://ajax.systems/products/fibra/power-calculator/.
