Falcon Lock MEL-F25C-L-QUA-US26D-36X96-RHR Motorized Electric Latch Retraction Exit Device, CVR Concealed Vertical Rod

Falcon Lock MEL-F25C-L-QUA-US26D-36X96-RHR KIT offers a cutting-edge solution for secure egress in multifamily and commercial buildings. This motorized electric latch retraction (MEL) device seamlessly integrates electronic control with mechanical egress, ensuring safety and efficiency in high-traffic areas. Designed for fire-rated applications, it features a concealed vertical rod exit device and Quantum lever trim, making it both functional and aesthetically pleasing. The MEL system enables convenient access management, allowing doors to be momentarily unlatched via credential readers for authorized users or kept retracted for extended periods to facilitate free entry. With an energy-efficient 24VDC operation and a low inrush current of 1.0 amps, the MEL can be paired with standard Schlage power supplies, making installation straightforward. Constructed with durability in mind, the device includes vandal-resistant features that detect tampering attempts. The modular design simplifies installation processes, while built-in diagnostics ensure quick troubleshooting. This exit device is UL listed and compliant with Grade 1 standards, assuring reliability and performance. Suitable for a variety of door sizes and configurations, the Falcon Lock MEL-F25C is an ideal choice for those seeking a robust and technologically advanced exit solution.

KIT - Motorized Electric Latch Retraction, Fire Rated CVR Concealed Vertical Rod Exit Device, Escutcheon x Quantum Lever Trim 510L, (Requires 1-1/4 Mortise Cylinder), 36in x 96in, RHR Right 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
