About this file

This document is a product specification sheet from Allegion for Von Duprin Quiet Electric Latch (QEL) retraction conversion kits, designed for exit devices in the 98/99, 33A/35A, and 22 Series. The document provides detailed information about two types of conversion kits - modular and baseplate - which enable electronic control of exit devices with limited operational noise. The kits are compatible with various device configurations and can be used to upgrade existing mechanical or legacy latch retraction devices, offering flexibility for different installation scenarios.

The document outlines specific features and benefits of the conversion kits, including ease of installation, inventory flexibility, and compatibility with different device sizes (3' and 4'). A comprehensive "How to Order" section provides a guided selection process with multiple configuration options, including ADA accessibility compliance (AX), connector availability (CON), and hex dogging capabilities (HD). The product sheet includes part numbers for different kit variations, installation resources, and customer support contact information. While not directly related to a specific government contract, the document provides technical details that could be relevant for access control projects like the FSU Charter School ADA Access Controls opportunity mentioned in the file metadata.

Overview

The Quiet Electric Latch (QEL) retraction latch option for Von Duprin exit devices provides electronic control of an exit device for environments where limited operational noise is desired.

This optional feature is offered in fully configured exit devices, or as a conversion kit to mechanical or legacy latch retraction devices currently installed, to enhance the opening’s operability.

Von Duprin offers both a modular and baseplate QEL conversion kits. In most applications, the modular QEL kit provides the necessary functionality at the lowest cost and is the recommended solution. The modular QEL conversion kit should be selected unless the product is currently a solenoid-driven latch retraction device (EL).

Features and benefits The baseplate QEL conversion kit was the initial conversion kit offered when Von Duprin originally launched the QEL. With the improved design of the motor assembly and availability of the modular conversion kit, the baseplate QEL conversion kit should primarily be used when converting an EL to a motor driven QEL solution.

The modular conversion kit was developed to improve the flexibility, cost, and installation process without the requirement of replacing the entire baseplate assembly. The modular motor assembly provides the same functionality and fits in both 3’ device and 4’ device. This design allows for flexibility of inventory and solutions for a broader set of openings.

Modular QEL conversion kit

§ Recommended conversion kit solution for most applications

§ Greater inventory flexibility: Can upgrade both 3’ and 4’ devices

§ Ease of installation: Can easily and quickly be installed in existing product

§ Lower list price: Same functionality offered at a lower list price

Baseplate QEL conversion kit*

§ EL conversion recommended when upgrading Von Duprin solenoid-driven latch retraction

§ Device size 3’ or 4’ baseplate solution required to be specified

*Baseplate conversion kit available for the 98/99 and the 33A/35A Series devices only.

How to order Use the following guided process to select the correct QEL conversion kit. Assess your product and choose ‘Yes’ or ‘No’ for each of the feature sections shown. Then, align selections with table columns on the next page. For each column, choose the corresponding row of products.

QEL conversion kit options

AX = Designed to meet the 2010 ADA standards for Accessible Design that state the force required to activate operable parts shall not exceed 5 pounds

CON = Connector – Allegion Connect is a quick and easy way to connect power sources

HD = Hex Dogging QEL – Hex Dogging allows the electric latch retraction exit device to be manually dogged, holding in the latch bolt (not for use with fire door applications)

Example: #1 = 98/99 | #2 = AX (N) | #3 = CON (N) | #4 = HD (N) » 114317-00 is the correct modular kit part number.

For confirmation purposes, 958003-00 is the corresponding baseplate kit part number. If you previously ordered 958003-00 for mechanical upgrades to latch retraction, we recommend choosing the 114317-00 modular kit.

*Von Duprin 22 series devices modular conversion kits compatible with devices manufactured after January 1, 2022 (no seam on the mechanism case).
