Fire Door Installation
1) Normal Operation: Doors provide separation of spaces but function as a fully
automatic door system.
2) When people approach the doors, they will open automatically, and close once
someone has passed through the doorway.
3) In the event of smoke, fi re or a power failure, a UL listed sensing device
(smoke, heat or central alarm detector) sends an impulse to deactivate the oper-
ator and the F50 latch mechanism.
4) Automation to the doors is removed. The fi re door latches positively secure
after each manual operation. The doors now function as manual fi re doors.
5) When power is restored or alarm condition is removed, push the reset button of
the F50 series latch and depress the crossbar of the panic device to unlatch the
door and restore automatic operation.
