INTRODUCTION

The releasing device is a failsafe constantly energized solenoid mechanism. It is designed for use on

rolling doors, single-slide and center-parting level and inclined track doors. Inside the mechanism,

contact relays receive the alarm signal from the fire alarm control panel. When the unit receives the

signal, the power to the solenoid is cut, releasing the fire door mechanism and hence close the fire

door. The alarm signal can be Form C dry contact or 24VDC/VAC. Any interruption of power will

release the solenoid mechanism. The release has a 10 second delay upon power failure and alarm,

closed door detection capabilities, Form C relay outputs for the status of release box and 24VDC

power output for door close warning.

Try out this unit before installing onto a fire door system. Test and learn the release
