7800 ELECTRIFIED MORTISE LOCKSETS

Application

Code compliant SELECTRIC® locksets stay latched even when unlocked, maintaining fre door integrity. This basic ability complies with national code requirements for up to 3-hour fre rated doors, including exit, elevator lobby and stairwell doors where electromagnetic locks and electric strikes may not be permitted.

Unlike a *magnetic lock, the failsafe SELECTRIC® 7850 function is never locked from the inside and permits uninhibited egress at all times by turning the inside manual lever, also eliminating reliance on secondary request-to-exit (REX) devices, such as motion detectors and other switching devices. When connected to the fre life safety command center, the lock releases immediately in an emergency, transforming a stairwell or elevator lobby door from a one-way exit into a two-way exit. This permits re-entry and eliminates the possibility of stairwell entrapment and potential exposure to life threatening smoke inhalation. Additionally, fre fghters are permitted uninhibited access to all foors during in an emergency, speeding life saving and fre extinguishing efforts.

While the failsafe SELECTRIC® is well suited for stairwell applications, it is important to remember that 75% of all electrifed lockset installations are failsecure. The failsecure SELECTRIC® 7852 lockset functions are ideal for interior high security applications, including entry control only and entry and egress control. For high profle installations requiring security with superior aesthetics, failsafe and failsecure SELECTRIC® locks eliminate the need for exposed and vulnerable locking devices, such as electric strikes, magnetic locks and REX devices.

Facility applications include: Commercial High-Rise Buildings, Industrial and Technology Centers, Health Care, Transportation, Government and Military Facilities, Museums and Universities. Door applications include: Offce and work center doors, mantrap doors, stairwell doors, elevator lobby doors, and exit doors.

*Misapplication

The use of electromagnetic locks is not recommended for stairwell doors for several reasons. (1) National codes have no provision for locking the interior side of stairwell doors at any time. (2) When a magnetic lock is energized the door is locked on the interior and exterior. (3) Egress ability relies upon the proper installation and reliability of a secondary switching device and/ or relay (integrated or external), rather than the inherently safe manual lever egress operation of an electrifed lockset. (4) Codes do not permit the use of a wall mounted exit switch for stairwell door egress. This requires both prior knowledge and two actions to achieve egress, as opposed to the single natural motion of lever rotation provided by electrifed lockset.

Electric strikes are not permissible on stairwell doors at any time. Failsafe electric strikes do not keep the door latched when unlocked, failing to maintain fre door integrity. Failsecure electric strikes are incapable of releasing during an emergency.

Approval of these products by local inspectors may not qualify as code compliant and may be indicative of code misinterpretation.

WHAT'S NEW

SELECTRIC PRO® - SDC Brand

The Selectric® Pro series features an SDC manufactured ANSI Grade 1, Heavy Duty lockset that retrofits most mechanical mortise lock brands and incorporates a proprietary clutch for lever vandal resistance. Also new and proprietary to SDC, ALL of the Selectric® Pro lockset features are field selectable, including selectable failsafe and failsecure modes, handing, voltages and functions - locked outside only or locked on both sides. A clutch for vandal resistance is standard. Options include door status, latched and locked status and REX outputs. Two mounting holes may be required for SDC trim when retrofitting some competitive brand door preps, consult factory.

Specify Selectric® Pro for new or retrofit applications that require a full-featured lockset, application versatility, vandal resistance and flexibility for changing facility requirements.

SELECTRIC® Mod - Competitive Brand Electrification

The Selectric® Mod series permits specification or direct replacement of competitive brand mechanical locksets. Select the lock brand of your choice and your distributor simply sends it to the SDC factory for electrification.

SELECTRIC® Mod includes Schlage, Corbin Russwin, Yale, Best, Sargent, Arrow, Falcon and more. And, SDC's ShipQUICK program ensures immediate shipment of select brands prior to arrival of your distributors replacement locks. The SELECTRIC® Mod series incorporates field selectable failsafe and failsecure modes and voltages. Function and handing selectability is based on individual brand capabilities.

Specify Selectric® Mod for new applications where another brand lockset is preferred or retrofit applications where matching of existing locksets is required.
