The EL model uses a solenoid mounted in push bar for instantaneous unlocking and locking of the exit device from a remote location or access control device. Because electrical operation of device is fail-secure, this option can be used on fire-rated as well as life-safety application. In the event of a power failure device automatically relocks. Rim devices are available in 12V or 24VDC and can be powered with simple transformer and rectifier or other DC power supply.

The entire line of Adams Rite Exit Devices can be ordered with electrification options for stand-alone access control or integration with maglocks, card readers, keypads, fire alarms and other control systems.  Different exit device types have different installation and power requirements.  See the EXIT DEVICE Section of the Catalog for information on all available types and functions.

PS-LR Power Supply

This Adams Rite power supply is required for the Electric Latch retraction option on Surface Vertical Rod, Concealed Vertical Rod and Mortise type exit devices.  It operates at 28VDC to power up to two LR exit devices in sequential or independent modes and is equipped with automatic door interface circuitry.

Electric Latch Retraction

The EL and LR options use a solenoid mounted in pushbar for instantaneous unlocking and locking of the exit device from a remote location or access control device.  Because electrical operation of device is fail-secure, this option can be used on fire-rated as well as life-safety applications.  In the event of a power failure, device automatically relatches.  CVR, SVR and Mortise devices require the use of PS-LR Power Supply.  For battery backup order the BBK-LR kit.  Batteries are available by others.  Rim devices are available in 12 or 24VDC and can be powered with a simple transformer and rectifier or other DC power supply.

Order PS-LR Power Supply separately.

Solenoid Specifications for CVR, SVR and Mortise: 16Amps Inrush/.5Amps Hold

Solenoid Specifications for Rim: EL-12VDC - 1.5Amps Inrush/Hold  EL-24VDC  - .6 Amps Inrush/Hold

Solenoids are rated for both intermittent and continuous operation.  Also see 4612 Power Transfer.

Standard EL and LR Devices are shipped without Hex Key Dogging.  Only Rim devices with the “EL” application are available with mechanical dogging, specify “ELD”.
