Falcon Lock MEL-F25R-L-BE-QUA-US26D-48-RHR Motorized Latch Retraction Fire Rated Rim Exit Device, Quantum Lever Trim, 48in, RHR, Satin Chrome

Falcon Lock MEL-F25R-L-BE-QUA-US26D-48-RHR KIT features a motorized electric latch retraction (MEL) system designed for enhanced security in multifamily and commercial spaces. This fire-rated concealed vertical rod exit device integrates seamlessly with existing Falcon 24 and 25 Series exit devices, except for mortise models, offering a cost-effective electromechanical solution. With a robust construction rated Grade 1 and finished in satin chrome (626/US26D), this exit device provides reliable and efficient electronic control for door access. The MEL mechanism allows authorized users to unlatch doors momentarily using credential readers or can be set to retract latches for extended periods, facilitating easy entry while maintaining security. The device is engineered for energy efficiency, utilizing a low inrush current of 1.0 amps, compatible with standard Schlage power supplies. Its modular design simplifies the installation process, while built-in diagnostics ensure quick troubleshooting. Vandal resistance is a key feature, detecting and responding to tampering attempts. This exit device measures 48 inches and is designed for right-hand reversible installations. The MEL-F25R includes an electronic trim option for additional security monitoring, making it an ideal choice for modern building professionals seeking reliable access control solutions.

KIT - Motorized Electric Latch Retraction, Fire Rated CVR Concealed Vertical Rod Exit Device, Blank Escutcheon x Quantum Lever Trim 510L-BE, 48in 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
