Detex 105032-4 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Detex V40xEE delayed egress device fit a 2-inch thick door?
Yes. The V40xEE covers door thicknesses from 1-3/4 inches through 2-1/4 inches, so a 2 inch door is inside the range. Stile width is the other check: you need at least 3-1/2 inches of stile on a single door, and at least 4 inches per leaf on a pair. Below those widths the rail and mounting plate won't land properly.
2) Do I have to order the Detex V40xEE handed, and what door widths does it come in?
Handing is a non-issue. The V40xEE is non-handed and field sizeable, so one device covers left and right hand openings. It comes in two rail lengths, 36 and 48, and the field sizeable rail lets you cut down within the length you ordered rather than stocking an exact width for every opening.
3) What power supply does a Detex V40xEE delayed egress exit device need?
It runs on 24VDC regulated power, with a 9V battery backup that keeps the alarm alive through a power interruption. That means it is not a standalone battery device: you need a 24VDC regulated supply run to the opening, and the wiring has to be pulled before the device goes on the door. Confirm the supply's current capacity for the device before you set the install date.
4) Does a delayed egress exit device still release for the fire alarm?
The V40xEE has a fire alarm override input. Tie it into the building fire alarm and the delay drops out on alarm, releasing the door for immediate egress. That input is what makes a delayed egress opening acceptable under life safety requirements, and it has to be wired and tested as part of commissioning, not left disconnected.
5) How long does the Detex V40xEE hold the door before it releases, and how loud is the alarm?
Push the bar and the device holds the door 15 seconds while a 100 dB alarm sounds, which gives staff time to get to the door before anyone walks out. Detex also offers the device with a 1-second or 30-second delay, plus a silent arming option and several dogging variations, so the delay period is something you specify at order time rather than something you are stuck with.
6) Can I put the Detex V40xEE on a fire rated door opening?
Specify a fire rated device instead. For a fire rated vertical rod opening ZenSupply carries the Marks USA M9900FVR at 36 x 84 and the M9900F-VR at 48 x 84, both fire rated and exit only, and the Delaney F9100 Series, a Grade 1 fire rated vertical rod device for a 36 x 84 door. Those give you a rated device on the labelled opening; a delayed egress installation on a rated door is a separate specification question for your AHJ.
7) Will the V40xEE secure a pair of doors with no center mullion?
It's a surface vertical rod device, so it latches at the head and the threshold rather than into a mullion, which is exactly why it works on a pair with an open center. Watch the stile on a pair: each leaf needs at least 4 inches, more than the 3-1/2 inches allowed on a single door. Order one device per leaf if both leaves need to be secured and alarmed.
8) Does a Cal-Royal 9860 do the same job as a Detex V40xEE?
No. The Cal-Royal 9860 is a heavy duty surface vertical rod exit device, Grade 2, exit only function, with ADA compliance. It is a mechanical device: push the bar and the door releases immediately. The Detex V40xEE holds the door for 15 seconds while sounding a 100 dB alarm, runs on a 24VDC regulated power supply with 9V battery backup, and takes a fire alarm override input. The two mount in the same place on the door but answer different requirements - the 9860 will not hold an unauthorized exit.
9) What is a comparable surface vertical rod exit device if delayed egress is not needed on the opening?
The Detex V40xEE is a delayed egress vertical rod device that holds the door for 15 seconds with a 100 dB alarm and a fire alarm override input. On an opening that only needs free mechanical egress, the Von Duprin 8827-3FT is a wide stile surface vertical rod exit device, Grade 1, from the 88 Series, built for 1-3/4 inch doors. It is a mechanical exit only device without the delay timer, alarm, or 24VDC power requirement, so no power supply or fire alarm interface has to be run to the door.
10) The opening is a fire rated door - what vertical rod exit device fits there?
The Detex V40xEE is a delayed egress device with a 15-second delay and 100 dB alarm. For a fire rated opening, the Delaney F9100 Series device (DLY-694300) is a Grade 1 heavy duty vertical rod type device that is fire rated, sized for a 36 by 84 inch door in an aluminum finish. The Marks USA M9900FVR is another fire rated vertical rod exit device, exit only and non-handed, for 36 by 84 inch doors, with the MARM9900F-VR covering 48 by 84 inch doors.
11) The door has a narrow stile - what vertical rod exit device works?
The Detex V40xEE requires a minimum stile width of 3-1/2 inches on single doors and 4 inches on double doors, and fits door thicknesses from 1-3/4 to 2-1/4 inches. The Von Duprin 8827-3FT and the Imperial USA ED-VR531 are both specified as wide stile devices, so they are aimed at wider stiles than a narrow aluminum door offers. The Von Duprin 8827-3FT is specified for 1-3/4 inch doors, which is the value to check against the leaf before ordering.
12) Which vertical rod exit devices are Grade 1 if my facility spec calls for it?
Grade 1 surface vertical rod devices include the Von Duprin 8827-3FT wide stile device in the 88 Series, the Imperial USA ED-VR531 in the ED-500 Series, a wide stile exit only device, and the Delaney 9100, F9100, and 8100 Series devices for 36 by 84 inch doors. Of those, the Delaney F9100 DLY-694300 is the fire rated one. The Cal-Royal 9860 is Grade 2, so it would not meet a Grade 1 spec.
13) Should I use a delayed egress exit device or a standard vertical rod panic device?
Different jobs. A standard surface vertical rod device, like the Von Duprin 8827-3FT or the Marks USA M9900VR, is exit only: push the bar and the door opens right now. Choose a delayed egress device like the V40xEE only when you need to deter people leaving through that door, retail back doors, healthcare units, school side exits, and you have a 24VDC supply and a fire alarm tie-in available. If you just need code compliant egress hardware with no monitoring, the plain device is simpler and needs no power at all.
14) What can I use instead of the Detex V40xEE if the door stile is too narrow?
Under 3-1/2 inches of stile on a single door the V40xEE is out. Wide stile alternatives we carry are no help there either, the Imperial USA ED-VR531 and the Von Duprin 8827-3FT are both wide stile devices. On an aluminum storefront leaf with a narrow stile you are looking for a narrow stile rim or vertical rod device sized to that stile, not a delayed egress rail of this width.
15) Which vertical rod exit device should I standardize on for a 48 inch door leaf?
The Detex V40xEE delayed egress device is offered in 36 and 48 inch sizes and is field sizeable and non-handed. Among mechanical vertical rod devices for a 48 inch leaf, the Marks USA M9900VR is listed at 48 by 84 inches, exit only and non-handed, and the Marks USA MARM9900F-VR covers 48 by 84 inches fire rated. The Detex adds the 15-second delay, 100 dB alarm, and 24VDC power with 9V battery backup; the Marks devices are mechanical exit only.
16) What is the difference between the Delaney 9100 and 8100 Series vertical rod devices?
Both are Grade 1 vertical rod type devices sized for a 36 by 84 inch door and neither is fire rated. The 9100 Series device DLY-692301 is described as heavy duty and comes in a stainless steel finish; the 8100 Series device DLY-8100-3684 is the Grade 1 vertical rod device in the 8100 line. If the opening requires a fire rating, the Delaney F9100 Series DLY-694300 is the fire rated Grade 1 version.
17) I need a simpler exit only device on a 36 inch door - what are the options next to the Detex V40xEE?
For a 36 inch leaf with straight mechanical egress, the Marks USA M9900VR is a 36 by 84 inch vertical rod panic exit device, exit only and non-handed. The Imperial USA ED-VR531 is a 36 inch Grade 1 surface vertical rod exit device, exit only, wide stile, in the ED-500 Series. The Delaney 8100 Series DLY-8100-3684 is a Grade 1 vertical rod device for a 36 by 84 inch door. None of these carry the Detex 15-second delay or 100 dB alarm, so no power supply or fire alarm tie-in is involved.
18) Is the Detex V40xEE tough enough for a high traffic back door in a retail store or hospital?
Construction is a heavy duty aluminum rail on a patented mounting plate with a strike locator, and the end cap is angled so carts and traffic glance off rather than catch the device. Detex lists it for retail loss prevention, healthcare access control, schools, and industrial facility monitoring, which are the traffic levels it's built around.
