Falcon Lock MEL-F25V-NL-US26D-48X96 KIT offers an advanced solution for exit security with its Motorized Electric Latch Retraction (MEL) technology. Designed specifically for multifamily and commercial environments, this fire-rated SVR surface vertical rod exit device ensures reliable egress while providing electronic control over the door's latch system. With a sleek satin chrome finish, it measures 48 inches by 96 inches and operates on a 24VDC, 1 Amp power supply. The MEL feature allows for energy-efficient operation, making it compatible with standard Schlage power supplies and enabling longer wire runs. This modular exit device can easily be installed onto existing mechanical Falcon 24 or 25 Series devices, enhancing functionality without extensive modifications. The device is equipped with vandal-resistant features that detect and respond to tampering, ensuring maximum security. It also offers on-board diagnostics for installation and troubleshooting, and its self-calibrating motor assembly ensures consistent performance. The push bar electronically retracts when dogged, providing seamless access for authorized users while maintaining mechanical egress at all times. For comprehensive integration, a power transfer mechanism is required, sold separately, ensuring a reliable power supply from the door to the frame. Choose the Falcon Lock MEL-F25V-NL-US26D-48X96 for a secure, efficient, and user-friendly exit solution.

KIT - Motorized Electric Latch Retraction, Fire Rated SVR Surface Vertical Rod Exit Device, Nightlatch Pull Trim 512NL, (Requires 1-1/4 Mortise Cylinder), 48in x 96in, 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
