Falcon Lock MEL-25C-NL-US26D-36X96 Motorized Electric Latch Retraction CVR Vertical Rod Exit Device, Satin Chrome

Falcon Lock MEL-25C-NL-US26D-36X96 KIT delivers a robust solution for modern security needs with its motorized electric latch retraction (MEL) feature. Designed for multifamily and commercial real estate facilities, this exit device integrates seamlessly with credential readers, allowing for momentary latching or extended free entry, making it an excellent alternative to mechanical dogging. It supports a 36-inch by 96-inch door size and operates on a 24VDC, 1 Amp power supply, ensuring energy efficiency. Constructed to Grade 1 standards, this device is not just reliable but also vandal-resistant, detecting tampering and responding accordingly. The modular design simplifies installation, allowing for easy conversion to existing Falcon 24 or 25 series exit devices. Furthermore, the self-calibrating motor assembly aids in installation and troubleshooting. With the MEL-25C kit, a power transfer (EPT, electrified hinge, or door loop) is required for proper function, sold separately. It is compatible with standard Schlage power supplies and includes features such as fail-safe and fail-secure trims for enhanced security. Finished in satin chrome (626/US26D), this exit device combines style and functionality, making it an ideal choice for building professionals and knowledgeable homeowners focused on quality and efficiency in access control solutions.

KIT - Motorized Electric Latch Retraction, CVR Concealed Vertical Rod Exit Device, Nightlatch Pull Trim 512NL, (Requires 1-1/4 Mortise Cylinder), 36in x 96in, 24VDC 1 Amp, Grade 1, 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.

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
• A power transfer (EPT, electrified hinge, door loop) provides a wiring path from the door to the frame. If an EPT (Electric Power Transfer) is utilized, the door and frame must be factory prepped.

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

Compatible Options:

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