Von Duprin 40086 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What is the Von Duprin 040086 ChExit PCB Kit used for?
This PCB kit provides 15-second delayed egress functionality for Von Duprin exit devices. It controls the timing mechanism that delays door release after activation while sounding an alarm.
2) Which Von Duprin exit devices is this PCB kit compatible with?
This kit is designed for specific Von Duprin ChExit delayed egress devices manufactured before August 17, 2015. Verify your exit device model and manufacture date before ordering to ensure compatibility.
3) Why does this kit specify "ordered before 8-17-2015"?
Von Duprin updated their PCB design after August 17, 2015. This kit is specifically for older units. Newer units require different PCB assemblies with updated circuit designs and components.
4) What does the 15-second release timing accomplish?
The 15-second delay meets code requirements for delayed egress applications. It provides security by preventing immediate exit while allowing legal egress after the delay period. An alarm sounds during the delay to alert security personnel.
5) Can I install this PCB kit myself?
Installation requires electrical knowledge and familiarity with exit device electronics. The PCB connects to control circuits, sensors, and alarm components. Professional installation is recommended to ensure proper function and code compliance.
6) What power requirements does this PCB have?
The PCB operates on low voltage DC power supplied through the exit device's control system. Verify your existing power supply specifications match the PCB requirements before installation.
7) Does this kit include all necessary components?
The kit includes the replacement PCB assembly and basic hardware. Additional components like sensors, wiring harnesses, or mounting brackets may need to be ordered separately depending on your specific installation.
8) How do I identify if my exit device needs this PCB replacement?
Signs include timing malfunctions, failure to release after delay period, alarm issues, or error codes. Check the device manufacture date and model number against Von Duprin documentation to confirm this is the correct replacement PCB.
9) What building codes apply to delayed egress devices?
IBC and NFPA 101 govern delayed egress applications. The device must release immediately upon fire alarm activation, power failure, or after the maximum delay period. Verify local code requirements with your AHJ.
10) How should I dispose of the old PCB?
Electronic components should be disposed of according to local e-waste regulations. Many areas have specific requirements for circuit boards containing electronic components. Contact your local waste management authority for proper disposal methods.
11) Are there updated versions of this PCB available?
Von Duprin released updated PCB designs for devices manufactured after August 2015. These newer PCBs are not interchangeable with older units. Always match the PCB to your device's manufacture date and model specifications.
