Power Supplies Popular With Our Gate Customers
In the past, we’ve found that DIN Rail and adapter power supplies are popular with our gate installation customers, but we can still offer chassis mount alternatives too. There are a wide variety of options in all categories available, from popular manufacturers Mean Well and PULS, to low cost DIN Rail options that we offer ourselves. Whatever you’re looking for we can help, and if you don’t know what you’re looking for, just let us know.
DIN Rail Power Supplies
Two of our most popular ranges for gate control are the Mean Well HDR series and our lowest cost DIN Rail Option, the LP Series from Reign Power. Both offer excellent value in a small form factor, with the LP Series being physically small on it’s DIN Rail width and with a voltage display for easy checks. The HDR, which uses the familiar MCB form factor can also add uniformity to an installation, whilst still offering simple installation.

We can supply all options by Mean Well, PULS and a variety of other manufacturers. If you can’t find the model you’re looking for, please contact us so we can assist.
In-Line and Adapter Power Supplies
Whether you call them adapters, wall mounts or desktops, we offer power supplies that are enclosed, and take a mains input from an IEC or 3 pin input to a DC output provided by a jack. We are fortunate to have a number of suppliers for our adapter power supplies, which means we can offer:
-
12Vdc and 24Vdc options standardised in stock or on short lead times.
-
Modified custom units, with different input and output connections and options available.
If you have a requirement for adapter style power supplies, just let us know your output voltage and power, alongside details of the jack you require, and we can certainly help find your correct solution.
Battery Back-Up for Critical Systems
Security systems and access are important to your customer, which is why it’s important to us. We offer solutions that can provide a battery backup as either a DC or AC output. Whatever the problem, we have a solution to offer.
DC UPS
For 12Vdc, 24Vdc and 48Vdc applications, the DCH range offers a small and simple option to add redundancy in to your systems. With a 230Vac input the DCH has outputs for batteries and DC load, so simply add your batteries and connect to your load and the DCH will charge your batteries and supply your load.
In a mains fail situation, the DCH will automatically switch to battery power and supply your output load. To preserve the lifespan of your batteries, the DCH will cut off supply to the load prior to deep discharge. For integrators using DIN Rail, the DCH can be mounted on DIN Rail along with CP Power’s DIN Rail Battery Holder. For more information on sizing your DC UPS system, contact us with your load requirements and required autonomy so we can help you further.
AC UPS
For applications that require multiple voltages, or where redundancy needs to be retrofitted, an AC UPS can be the solution. We have many different sizes and technologies we can offer, and multiple options for expanded autonomy time. if you are looking to add redundancy in to your already existing systems, please contact us with your load size and autonomy requirement and we can suggest options for you.
