zuiko 0 Posted May 26, 2011 I got some Ultrak KC552BCN cameras. They are labelled 24VAC 60Hz... is there any way 12VDC can be used to power them? I know many cameras are labelled for either. My 24VAC power supply is a weak point and it would be a lot easier/cheaper to find a decent 12VDC power source than 24VAC. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SEANHAWG 1 Posted May 26, 2011 No 12V DC will not work on that camera any way shape or form. They are not dual voltage. 24VAC is a better power supply to use anyways due to its ability to send power over longer cable runs. Use 24VAC. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zuiko 0 Posted May 26, 2011 Any suggestions on a decent 24VAC power supply for under $100 that will provide a few amps of power for multiple cameras and heated/ventilated enclosures? Right now I am just using an unregulated transformer and I think the poor and variable quality power might be negatively affecting the cameras connected to it... they consistently seem to have a lot of problems compared to a couple other cameras on another PS so I want to replace that before anything else.

SEANHAWG 1 Posted May 27, 2011 I met come american clients and I saw on their websitetheir products are dual power. Nice to know, but that is completely irrelevant to this camera.
