DORMA TS9315 EMR/T Series

Holder/Release Devices with Integral Door Closers

The EMR Series holder/release device incorporates a photoelectric detector and can control the spread of smoke and fire in a specific location or throughout the building if wired into a central alarm panel.

Holder/release devices ANSI/BHMA certified.

  • Three models included
  • Interfaces with new or existing fire/smoke control systems
  • Can be wired for concealed or surface wiring
  • EMR can control one EMF unit for pair of doors
  • Patented hold open design
 

Product details

Three models included

The EMF/EMR Series includes three models for price and door closer feature/function considerations. The TS93 in Contur Design, with the extra efficient cam and roller technology, can be used on larger doors, while the 8900 rack and pinion closer offers a narrow projection for less cost. When value engineering is a concern, the 8600 meets the need.

Patented hold open design

The EMF/EMR Series’ patented hold open design prevents damage to the door, frame, holder/release device, or other installed hardware. This design enables initial hold while allowing the door to be manually opened beyond the hold open point.

Compatibility and wiring

The EMF/EMR Series is compatible with new or existing fire/smoke control systems and can be wired for concealed or surface wiring.

Door shuts in case of an alarm state or power failure

In the case of an alarm state signaled by the central control system or main power failure, current to the electromagnetic hold open device is interrupted, thus allowing the door closing mechanism to take over and shut the door.

Dormakaba TS9315-EMR-T-689 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) How does the DORMA TS9315 EMR/T hold a smoke door open and release it in a fire?
The TS9315 EMR/T is a door closer with an electromagnetic hold-open track and an integral photoelectric detector. The magnet holds the door open at the set point. When the built-in detector senses smoke, or when a central fire/smoke control panel signals an alarm, or when main power drops, current to the magnet is cut and the closer swings the door shut. That means it fails safe: no power, no hold, door closes.
2) Can one DORMA TS9315 EMR unit release both leaves of a pair of doors?
Yes. One EMR unit with its detector can control one EMF unit, so the detector leaf drives the second leaf on a pair. The EMF is the holder/release without its own detector, so you order the EMR for one leaf and the EMF for the other rather than buying two detectors.
3) Which side of the door does the DORMA TS9315 EMR/T mount on, and does it matter which way the door swings?
Pull side, surface mounted. It is non-handed, so the same unit works on a left or right hand door without ordering a hand. If the closer has to sit on the push side of the opening, this is the wrong configuration and you want a push side mount instead.
4) Will a DORMA TS9315 EMR/T handle a wide or heavy exterior door?
The closer is adjustable through sizes 1 to 5, which covers narrow interior leaves up through wide and heavy doors, and it is rated heavy duty for commercial use. The TS93 uses cam and roller technology rather than rack and pinion, which is why it is the model in the EMF/EMR family used on the larger doors. Size 1 is the lightest setting and 5 the heaviest, so one unit can be set to the opening on site.
5) Is the DORMA TS9315 EMR/T Grade 1, and is it ADA compliant?
Grade 1, and the holder/release devices are ANSI/BHMA certified. It is not an ADA compliant closer, so on an opening that has to meet an ADA opening force requirement, this is not the unit to spec. For a standard fire or smoke barrier door in a commercial building it is the heavy duty choice.
6) Do I have to run wiring in the frame for a DORMA EMR holder release, or can it be surface wired?
Either. The EMF/EMR series can be wired concealed through the frame or run on the surface, so it goes onto an existing opening in a retrofit without cutting the frame for a raceway. That is the deciding factor on most occupied buildings where you cannot pull the frame.
7) What is an alternative to the DORMA TS9315 EMR/T when the opening only needs an electrically held open door and no built-in smoke detector?
The Cal-Royal CR441EHO is a Grade 1 door closer with an electronic hold-open track arm, so the hold open releases on a signal from the fire alarm system without carrying its own detector head. The DORMA TS9315 EMR/T is built around an integral photoelectric detector, which lets it drop the door on locally sensed smoke as well as on a signal from a central panel. Both are Grade 1, so on an opening already covered by system smoke detection the CR441EHO covers the electrical hold and release function, while the TS9315 EMR/T is the choice where the release decision needs to be made at the door itself.
8) Is the Cal-Royal CR441EHO a direct replacement for a DORMA TS9315 EMR/T on a smoke barrier door?
Not on a one-for-one basis. The Cal-Royal CR441EHO is a Grade 1 closer with an electronic hold-open track arm, so it holds and releases on power but relies on detection somewhere else in the system. The DORMA TS9315 EMR/T carries a photoelectric detector in the unit, and its hold open releases either on an alarm state signaled by the central control system or on main power failure. Swapping to the CR441EHO on an opening where the TS9315 EMR/T was providing the local detection changes what triggers the door to close, which is a fire and life safety decision an AHJ will look at.
9) What happens if someone pushes a door past the hold-open point on a DORMA EMR closer?
Nothing breaks. The hold open design is patented specifically so the door can be pushed manually past the hold open point without damaging the door, the frame, the holder/release, or other hardware on the opening. On a corridor door in a hospital or a school where staff will shove it open with a cart, that matters more than any spec on the sheet.
10) If I am standardizing hold-open closers across a facility at Grade 1, which units qualify?
Both the DORMA TS9315 EMR/T and the Cal-Royal CR441EHO are Grade 1. The TS9315 EMR/T is a heavy duty, non-handed, pull side surface-mount unit with a rack and pinion track and a closer size range of 1 to 5, so one part number covers a spread of door widths and both hands. The CR441EHO is a Grade 1 closer with an electronic hold-open track arm. A facility that wants local smoke detection at the leaf specifies the TS9315 EMR/T; openings already covered by system detection can be held and released with the CR441EHO.
11) Will a Cal-Royal CR441EHO mount where a DORMA TS9315 EMR/T track closer is coming off the door?
Treat it as a new layout rather than a drop-in. The DORMA TS9315 EMR/T is a pull side surface-mount unit running a rack and pinion track, and it can be wired for concealed or surface wiring, so an existing installation may have a wire route committed to that footprint. The Cal-Royal CR441EHO is a Grade 1 closer with an electronic hold-open track arm and carries its own arm and track geometry. Verify the track length, soffit or frame prep, and where the power feed lands before committing either one to an existing hole pattern.
12) For a pair of doors, do I need two detector units or can one control both leaves?
One DORMA TS9315 EMR/T can control a single EMF unit, which covers the second leaf of a pair, so the detector unit goes on one leaf and the companion holder on the other. The Cal-Royal CR441EHO is a Grade 1 closer with an electronic hold-open track arm, so on a pair each leaf takes its own unit wired back to the system. That difference decides how many detector heads a pair of smoke barrier doors ends up carrying.
13) What finishes does the DORMA TS9315 EMR/T come in for matching other closers in a building?
Six finishes: 689 aluminum, 690 dark bronze, 691 light bronze, 693 black, 695 dark bronze, and 696 satin brass. Aluminum and dark bronze are the two that match most existing commercial closer fleets, so a property manager standardizing a corridor usually lands on 689 or 690.
