Product Description
V50 EEFC3 CD 628 96 36X96PSO Detex V50 Series Surface Vertical Rod Exit Device — Delayed Egress with Fire Command, Cylinder Dogging, Satin Aluminum Clear Anodized
Secured exits need delayed egress, but fire code demands immediate release on alarm. The Detex V50 solves both — 15/30-second configurable delay that instantly releases when the fire alarm panel sends a signal through the FC3 input.

Pro-Installer FAQ
What's the maximum door height?
Standard configuration fits doors up to 36X96PSO. Top and bottom rod lengths are field-adjustable. For doors exceeding standard height, verify rod lengths before ordering.
Can the delay be changed from 15 to 30 seconds?
Yes, the device is field-selectable between 15 and 30 seconds. However, a 30-second delay requires written approval from your local Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ) or Fire Marshal before installation.
