Falcon Lock MEL-F25C-NL-US26D-36X96 Motorized Electric Latch Retraction Exit Device, Fire Rated, Satin Chrome

Falcon Lock MEL-F25C-NL-US26D-36X96 KIT offers a robust and efficient solution for access control with its motorized electric latch retraction (MEL). Designed for multifamily and commercial facilities, this fire-rated CVR concealed vertical rod exit device ensures both security and convenience. The device features a nightlatch pull trim (512NL) and requires a 1-1/4 mortise cylinder, making it an ideal choice for various door applications. With a UL rating and an operational voltage of 24VDC at 1 Amp, the MEL device helps reduce energy consumption while allowing for longer wire runs. Its modular design allows for easy installation on existing Falcon 24 or 25 Series exit devices, excluding the mortise 25-M model. The self-calibrating motor assembly ensures reliable performance, detecting and responding to tampering or attacks, thus enhancing security. Additional highlights of the MEL-F25C include compatibility with credential readers for authorized access, mechanical egress for safety, and the option for fail-safe or fail-secure electric trim. With a sleek satin chrome finish (626/US26D), this exit device not only meets the highest standards in security but also complements modern architectural aesthetics. Choose Falcon Lock for dependable and user-friendly access solutions.

KIT - Motorized Electric Latch Retraction, Fire Rated CVR Concealed Vertical Rod Exit Device, Nightlatch Pull Trim 512NL, (Requires 1-1/4 Mortise Cylinder), 36in 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)
