ACSI 1550K-MDX – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the ACSI 1550K-MDX work on my Dorex 9500 exit device?
That's exactly what the 1550K-MDX is built for. It's a motorized latch retraction modification made specifically for Dorex 9500 Series exit devices, and nothing else. Each kit in ACSI's 1500 Series is cut for one manufacturer's device family, so if your opening has a different brand of panic hardware you need the matching kit, not this one. Also worth knowing up front: you supply the exit device, ACSI supplies the modification.
2) I have Von Duprin 98/99 devices, not Dorex. Which ACSI motor latch retraction kit do I order?
For Von Duprin 33A/35A and 98/99 the kit is the ACSI 1550K-MDV, and for the Von Duprin 22 it's the 1550K-MDV22. The MDX is Dorex 9500 only. Other device families in the same 1500 Series line: 1550K-MDC for Corbin Russwin ED4000/ED5000 and Yale 7000, 1550K-MDD for Dorma 9000, 1550K-MDT for Hager 4500/4600, PDQ 6200 and Stanley QED100/QED200/QED300, 1550K-MDS for Sargent 80 and Arrow 1000/3000/4000, 1550K-MDP for Precision 2000/5000, 1550K-MDF for Falcon 24/25, 1550K-MDO for Falcon 1690/1790, and 1550K-MDH for Design Hardware 1000. Match the kit to the device you already have on the door.
3) What power supply do I need for an ACSI 1550K-MDX motor latch retraction kit?
It runs on 24VDC, and ACSI recommends its own Series 1400 power supplies to feed it. The leads are non-polarized, so you don't have to chase polarity at the terminal block during rough-in. Current draw is low and the motor is continuous duty rated, which matters if the device is going to sit retracted all day on a scheduled unlock.
4) Can I use electric latch retraction on a fire rated door with an exit device?
Yes, the ACSI 1550K-MDX modification is UL Listed for both panic and fire exit hardware. That's the distinction that matters on a fire opening: plenty of retraction kits are panic only, and installing one on a fire rated pair kills the label. Note the kit is the modification, not the device, so the exit device itself has to carry the right label for the opening as well.
5) Does the ACSI 1550K-MDX do dogging as well as latch retraction, or do I need a separate dogging kit?
Both, at once. When the 1550K-MDX motor pulls the latch it also holds the push bar depressed, so you get simultaneous electric latch retraction and dogging from one kit. On a fire rated opening mechanical dogging isn't allowed, which is a common reason people go to motorized retraction for a scheduled unlock instead. No separate dogging kit is needed.
6) Am I buying a complete exit device when I order the ACSI 1550K-MDX?
No, and this is the part people get wrong on the PO. The 1550K-MDX is a modification kit only, a component that adds motorized latch retraction to a Dorex 9500 exit device. The exit device itself is a separate purchase, and so is the 24VDC power supply that drives the motor.
7) My Dorex 9500 is a surface vertical rod device, not a rim. Is there a different version of the ACSI kit?
The 1550K motorized retraction modification is available for mortise, rim, concealed vertical rod and surface vertical rod exit devices, so the device chassis type on your Dorex 9500 isn't a barrier. What you'll want to state on the order is which of those four you have, since the modification is built to the device you send in or install onto.
8) Can the ACSI 1550K-MDX be installed on a Dorex 9500 already hanging in the field, or does the device have to go back to the factory?
Either way works. The 1550K-MDX is field or factory installed, so an existing Dorex 9500 already on the opening can be modified in place rather than pulled and shipped out. ACSI's engineers and technicians also provide system design and wiring diagrams if the integration is going into a larger access control or life safety scheme.
9) Will electric latch retraction on an exit device tie into the fire alarm so the doors relock on alarm?
The 1550K-MDX is built to interface with life-safety systems, so the retraction can be dropped on a fire alarm signal and the exit device returns to latched. On-board diagnostic LEDs on the control let a tech see the state of the circuit at the door instead of guessing from the head end, and automatic retry re-attempts a retraction that didn't complete, which is what usually happens when a door is under stack pressure or binding in the frame.
10) Motor latch retraction or solenoid latch retraction, which should I use on an exit device?
The motorized version, like the 1550K-MDX for Dorex 9500, is quiet in operation, low power draw and continuous duty rated, which is what lets it hold a device retracted for a full business day without cooking a coil or thumping every time it cycles. ACSI's solenoid alternative in the same line is the 1550K-VD for Von Duprin 33/35 and 98/99. Solenoid retraction is the older approach and is typically noisier and hungrier for current, so on a lobby or a classroom corridor where noise and duty cycle matter, motorized is the one to spec.
11) Is the ACSI 1550K-MDX suitable for a residential door?
No. The 1550K-MDX is a commercial product, a modification to commercial panic hardware on a Dorex 9500, and it requires a 24VDC supply and an access control or life safety interface behind it. A house door has neither the exit device nor the power infrastructure this assumes.
