Falcon Lock MEL-F25C-L-DAN-US26D-48X96-LHR Motorized Electric Latch Retraction CVR Vertical Rod Exit Device, Satin Chrome

Falcon Lock MEL-F25C-L-DAN-US26D-48X96-LHR KIT offers a robust solution for modern exit security with its motorized electric latch retraction (MEL) feature. Designed to meet the needs of multifamily and commercial facilities, this fire-rated concealed vertical rod exit device ensures efficient electronic control, providing mechanical egress at all times. This exit device features a sleek satin chrome finish (626/US26D) and accommodates doors measuring 48 inches by 96 inches, with a left-hand reverse (LHR) configuration. It operates on 24VDC at 1 Amp, aligning with Grade 1 standards for quality and durability. The modular design simplifies installation, allowing the MEL conversion kit to be integrated seamlessly into existing Falcon 24 or 25 Series exit devices. The MEL feature enhances security by enabling momentary unlatching through credential readers or extended periods of access for authorized users, making it an excellent alternative to mechanical dogging. Its vandal-resistant design detects tampering, ensuring peace of mind. For optimal performance, a power transfer (EPT), electrified hinge, or door loop is required, sold separately. With built-in diagnostics and a self-calibrating motor assembly, the Falcon Lock MEL-F25C-L-DAN is a reliable choice for enhancing safety and accessibility in any facility.

KIT - Motorized Electric Latch Retraction, Fire Rated CVR Concealed Vertical Rod Exit Device, Escutcheon x Dane Lever Trim 510L, (Requires 1-1/4 Mortise Cylinder), 48in x 96in, LHR Left Hand Reverse/Reversible, UL, 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)

EPT Options:

• EPT-2: Two 18AWG wires with a max rating of 24VDC, 5A or 120 VAC NEC class 3
• EPT-10: Ten 24AWG wires with a max rating of 24VDC, 1A
