Falcon Lock 25MELK-4FT-US26D 24VDC Motorized Electric Latch Retraction Kit for 25 Series, Satin Chrome

Falcon Lock 25MELK-4FT-US26D Motorized Electric Latch Retraction Kit offers a seamless blend of security and convenience for multifamily and commercial properties. Designed for the Falcon 25 Series exit devices (excluding the mortise 25-M), this 4-foot model operates on a 24VDC power supply, drawing just 1 amp, making it an energy-efficient choice for modern building needs. The motorized electric latch retraction (MEL) provides electronic control of exit devices, allowing for quick and easy access for authorized users through credential readers. It can also be programmed to retract latches for extended periods, eliminating the need for mechanical dogging. Additionally, the modular design simplifies installation, enabling the MEL Conversion kit to be added to existing Falcon exit devices. Vandal-resistant technology ensures the assembly detects and responds to tampering, enhancing the security of your premises. With built-in diagnostics for installation and troubleshooting, this kit is both user-friendly and reliable. The Falcon Lock 25MELK-4FT is compatible with various Schlage power supplies and can be integrated with fail-safe or fail-secure electric trim options. Available in a sleek satin chrome finish (US26D), this kit not only meets safety standards but also complements the aesthetic of any entryway.

Motorized Electric Latch Retraction Kit, 24VDC 1A, 4ft for 25 Series Except 25-M (Mortise), 626/US26D Satin Chrome

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.

Options:

• Security monitoring (DM, LM, RX).
• Fail Safe/Fail Secure electric trim (FSA/FSE).
