Falcon Lock 25MELK-4FT-622-CON Allegion 24VDC Electric Latch Retraction Kit for 25 Series, Flat Black

Falcon Lock 25MELK-4FT-622-CON KIT is a sophisticated motorized electric latch retraction kit designed for seamless operation in multifamily and commercial facilities. This 24VDC, 1A unit features a 48-inch configuration compatible with most Falcon 24 and 25 series exit devices, excluding the mortise 25-M. The MEL option enhances energy efficiency, allowing for longer wire runs and compatibility with standard Schlage power supplies. This kit offers a versatile solution for automatic door access. It can be paired with credential readers to allow authorized users to unlatch doors momentarily or configured for extended periods of free entry. The modular design simplifies installation, and the built-in diagnostics ensure ease of troubleshooting. It features a self-calibrating motor assembly and is vandal-resistant, making it an ideal choice for high-traffic areas. The Falcon Lock 25MELK-4FT-622-CON KIT is also compatible with various power supplies and requires a power transfer mechanism, sold separately. Options for security monitoring and fail-safe or fail-secure electric trim further enhance its functionality. With a flat black painted finish (622/US19), this exit device combines aesthetic appeal with robust security features, ensuring peace of mind for building professionals and homeowners alike.

KIT - Motorized Electric Latch Retraction Kit with Allegion Connect, 24VDC 1A, 48in for 25 Series Except 25-M (Mortise), 622/US19 Flat Black Painted

Motorized electric latch retraction (MEL) provides energy efficient electronic control of an exit device for an affordable around the door solution. The MEL option is Falcon’s solution of choice for multifamily and commercial real estate facilities where cost competitive electromechanical latch retraction is desired. It is available on most Falcon 24 and 25 series exit devices (not available for mortise 25-M or F-25-M). These devices always provide mechanical egress. Motorized electric latch retraction can be used with credential readers to unlatch doors momentarily for authorized users, or it can be incorporated with systems to retract latches for extended periods of time to allow free entry. This is a convenient alternative to mechanical dogging. Doors with automatic operators also may use exit devices with electric latch retraction. The MEL option is available on panic and fire rated devices. Because fire exit hardware must be self latching, an automatic fire alarm system must be incorporated to drop power to fire rated MEL devices in case of fire.

Features:

• MEL option available on 24 and 25 series exit devices, except 25-M (mortise).
• Energy efficient motorized latch retraction enables longer wire runs and the use of a standard Schlage power supply with option board.
• Modular design allows for a simplified installation of the available MEL conversion kit to existing mechanical Falcon 24 or 25 exit devices.
• On-board installation and troubleshooting diagnostics built into the motor assembly.
• Self-calibrating motor assembly.
• Push bar is pulled in electronically when dogged.
• Vandal resistant – detects and responds to events of attack and tampering.

Requirements:

• The MEL has a low inrush current = 1.0 amps, so it can be used with standard Schlage power supplies. When powering multiple components, verify that the amperage requirement of all components combined does not exceed the power supply output rating.
• The MEL device is compatible with the following equipment: PS900 Series power supplies - PS902, 904, 906, 914; 900 series option boards - 900-2RS, 900-4R and 900-4RL.
• A power transfer (EPT, electrified hinge, or door loop) is required and sold separately

Options:

• Security monitoring (DM, LM, RX).
• Fail safe/fail secure electric trim (FSA/FSE).
