WARNING
1. CAUTION: Review all installation instructions, procedures, cautions and warnings contained within
this manual prior to installing and/or servicing this product. As with all releasing device systems,
maximum fire protection is provided when installed in accordance with factory specifications and
used with optional fuse link systems.
2. Installation and testing to factory specifications shall be performed by factory authorized personnel
for proper operation in accordance with all of the latest National Fire Protection Association (NFPA),
Underwriters Laboratories (UL), National Electrical Code (NEC), local, state, county, district and/or
other applicable building and fire standards, guidelines, regulations and codes including, but not
limited to, all appendices and amendments and the requirements of the local Authority Having
Jurisdiction (AHJ).
3. Installation to be performed by factory authorized door system technicians only.
4. Clear fire door opening and prohibit all traffic through door opening during system testing!
INTRODUCTION
The releasing device is a failsafe constantly energized solenoid mechanism. It is designed for use on
rolling fire doors and counter fire 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 closing the fire door. The alarm signal can be Form C dry
contact or 24VDC/VAC. A power interruption in excess of 10 seconds will release the solenoid
mechanism. The release has a 10 second delay on alarm, closed door detection capabilities, Form C
relay outputs for the status of release box and 24VDC power output for door close warning.

IMPORTANT MECHANICAL INSTALLATION PROCEDURE
WARNING - To reduce the risk of severe injury or death:
1. READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS.
2. Spring tension must be adjusted to allow the fire door to self close during a drop test, alarm
activation and/or power failure. A door that is operating improperly could cause severe injury. Have
qualified door system technicians make repairs to spring assemblies and other hardware before
installing the operator.
3. Cover any exposed, moving operator parts that are less than 8 feet above the floor.
4. Do not connect the door operator to the source of power until instructed to do so.
5. When utilized, locate the “close” control station: (a) within sight of the door, (b) at a minimum
height of 5 feet so small children cannot reach it, and (c) away from all moving parts of the door.
6. Instruct the end user on operation of the operator / release device.
7. The door is under extreme spring tension. Have qualified door system technicians make all
necessary adjustments and repairs to the door.
8. Make sure the available alarm power supply to be connected to the operator is of the same voltage,
frequency, phase and wattage as indicated on the nameplate of the alarm box.
9. Read and understand the wiring diagram of the alarm box (if applicable), and any other equipment to
be connected to the operator.
10. Always disconnect power whenever installing or servicing the door or operator.

OPERATOR MOUNTING
1. Before the operator is installed, ve rify that the door is properly operating and balanced.
2. Make sure the mounting plates are correctly positioned for RH or LH mounting.
3. Attach and tighten the mounting hardware to the mounting plate.
4. Tighten the operator mounting plate to the door.
5. When the operator is mounted on the bracket, be sure the door sprocket is properly aligned / in the
same plane with the operator drive sprocket before securing to the shaft.
6. The shelf or bracket must provide adequate support for the operator. Prevent play between operator
and door shaft. Permit operator to be fastened securely and with the drive shaft parallel to the door
shaft.

ADJUSTING THE DRIVE CHAIN
NOTE: Use correct type, size and proper length of roller chain.
1. Adjust the drive chain by moving the mounting screws so that there is about 1/4” of slack when the
chain is depressed.
2. Once the drive chain has been tightened, then tighten the operator mounting screws.

ADJUSTING OPERATING CHAIN LENGTH (FCA units only)
Operating chain is provided in a standard length. Depending on door height, the chain may need to be
shortened or lengthened. A DIFFERENT COLOR connecting link can be found in the hand chain. Use
this link for breaking the chain to make adjustments to the hand chain length so that the bottom of the
hanging chain is 2’ to 3’ above the floor.
