Von Duprin RXEL9847EO 3 26D – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Von Duprin EL9847EO work on a pair of doors without a mullion?
Yes. The 9847 is a concealed vertical rod device, so it latches at the head and the threshold rather than into the jamb. That means a pair of doors gets secured without a center mullion, which is exactly why you'd pick CVR over a rim device. The 36 inch device covers doors 28 to 36 inches wide and 80 to 100 inches tall, so each leaf of the pair needs its own device.
2) How does the electric latch retraction and RX switch work with my access control system?
Every configuration of the EL9847EO ships with both Electric Latch Retraction and a Request to Exit switch. EL lets the access control system pull the latches back electrically for push-pull or unlocked periods, and RX signals the panel whenever the pushpad is operated so an egress is not read as a forced door. That combination is what you want on a card-reader opening where you also need a monitored egress signal.
3) Is the Von Duprin 9847 exit-only, or can I get outside trim on it?
Both. Two trim functions are offered: EO exit only, and NL-OP night latch with optional pull. The device itself ships EO/DT/NL and is field selectable, and for TP, K, or L configurations you remove the NL drive screw. So if the outside function changes after install, you are not replacing the device.
4) The door is a wood leaf - can the Von Duprin EL9847EO 3 be used, and if not what can?
The EL9847EO 3 is specified for hollow metal doors and is not wood door compatible. For a wood leaf, the Adams Rite 8700 Series 30 inch narrow stile rim exit device and the fire rated Adams Rite 3700 Series 30 inch narrow stile rim device are both listed as wood door compatible Grade 1 devices. Both are rim devices with starwheel interlocking, so they latch to the frame rather than running rods through the door.
5) The opening needs a fire label - which device takes the place of the Von Duprin EL9847EO 3?
The EL9847EO 3 is not fire rated, so on a labeled opening choose from the fire rated devices: the Marks USA M9900F in 36 inch or 48 inch, exit only with a panic protector end cap, the Orca OED85 Series 36 inch fire rated rim device, or the Dexter ED1000 Series Grade 1 fire rated rim device. All three are rim devices rather than concealed vertical rod, so the frame will need a rim strike instead of head and floor strikes.
6) What is the closest cross-brand equivalent to the Von Duprin EL9847EO 3 concealed vertical rod exit device?
The Hager 4501 Series 36 inch concealed vertical rod exit device is the closest match by type and size: it is also a Grade 1 concealed vertical rod device with a wide stile pushpad in a 36 inch length, and it is non-fire-rated like the EL9847EO 3. The difference is the electrification - the EL9847EO 3 is ordered with Electric Latch Retraction and a Request to Exit switch built in for access control integration, so if the Hager is used the latch retraction and monitoring have to be handled separately.
7) Is there another electrified exit device with both latch retraction and request-to-exit besides the Von Duprin EL9847EO 3?
The Sargent 12-8810-LTRIM is the other device in the set specified with both RX and motorized electric latch retraction. Two things separate it from the EL9847EO 3: the Sargent is a fire rated wide stile rim device, while the EL9847EO 3 is a concealed vertical rod device that is not fire rated. So if the opening requires a fire label, the Sargent is the electrified path; if the design calls for rods concealed in the door leaf, the EL9847EO 3 is.
8) Is an SDC switch bar or pressure sense bar a substitute for the Von Duprin EL9847EO 3?
No - they solve a different problem. The SDC MSB550 Series 36 inch mechanical switch bar releases an electromagnetic lock and the SDC SureExit PSB560 Series 36 inch pressure sense bar signals release with tri-failsafe logic; neither carries a latch bolt of its own. The EL9847EO 3 is a Grade 1 panic device with deadlocking top and bottom bolts that latch into the head and threshold. If the opening is secured by a maglock, an SDC bar is the right part; if the door has to latch mechanically, it is not.
9) I need a device for a 48 inch wide door instead of the Von Duprin EL9847EO 3 - what fits?
The 36 inch EL9847EO 3 is sized for doors 28 to 36 inches wide, so a 48 inch leaf needs a longer device. The Dormakaba 9300 Series 48 inch wide stile rim device, exit only, covers 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch door thickness, and the Corbin Russwin ED3200 is a 48 inch Grade 1 crossbar rim device. The Dexter ED1000 Series is also offered in a 4FT Grade 1 rim version. All are rim devices, which changes the frame strike prep compared with a concealed vertical rod device.
10) What door thickness does the Von Duprin 9847 take, and are the right screws in the box?
It covers hollow metal doors from 1-3/4 in up to 2-1/4 in thick. The screw pack shipped with the device includes fasteners for both 1-3/4 in (44mm) and 2-1/4 in (57mm) metal doors, and sex nuts and bolts are included. A 425 SNB set is available as an option if your job calls for it.
11) Do I have to order the Von Duprin EL9847EO handed?
No. It is non-handed and field reversible, so one device covers left or right hand openings. Handy if you are stocking for a building with mixed swings rather than ordering per door.
12) Will the existing strikes work, or do new ones come with the Von Duprin 9847?
The device comes with Top Strike 338 and Bottom Strike 385A. Top and bottom bolts are deadlocking with a 5/8 in (16mm) throw, so they seat into those strikes at the head and the floor. Since a CVR latches vertically, old rim strike prep in the jamb is not reused.
13) What mounting height does the Von Duprin 9847 pushpad sit at?
Standard centerline is 39-5/8 in (1006mm) from finished floor, and it can be set anywhere from 35-5/8 in (905mm) to 49-5/8 in (1260mm). That range lets you line the crossbar up with existing devices on adjacent openings so a corridor of doors reads consistently.
14) What's a concealed vertical rod device good for compared to a rim exit device?
A CVR like the 9847 hides the rods inside the door and latches top and bottom, so you get a clean face and two-point latching, and pairs work without a mullion. A rim device is simpler to install and service since everything is surface mounted, but on a pair it needs a removable mullion or a second leaf with vertical rods. If surface mounting is acceptable, wide stile rim options include the Corbin Russwin ED5200 or the BEST Precision 2101 Series 36 inch.
15) Can I use a rim exit device instead of the Von Duprin EL9847EO 3 on a hollow metal door?
Yes, if the door leaf is not prepped for concealed rods. The Corbin Russwin ED2200 is a 36 inch Grade 1 wide stile rim exit device for exit-only service on non-wood doors, and the BEST Precision 2101 is a 36 inch wide stile rim device in the same length class. Both latch to a strike on the frame rather than into the head and threshold, which is a different door and frame prep than the EL9847EO 3, whose top strike 338 and bottom strike 385A land at the head and floor.
16) How does the Securitron EMB electromechanical exit bar compare with the Von Duprin EL9847EO 3?
The Securitron EMB is an electromechanical exit bar listed for a 2-1/4 inch door thickness. The EL9847EO 3 is a concealed vertical rod panic device covering hollow metal doors from 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch thick, with a 36 inch device for openings 28 to 36 inches wide and 80 to 100 inches tall and adjustable two-piece rods. The EMB is a self-contained bar on the face of the door; the EL9847EO 3 runs its rods inside the leaf and needs the door prepped for them.
17) Which alternatives to the Von Duprin EL9847EO 3 hold ANSI Grade 1 for a standardized facility spec?
The EL9847EO 3 is certified to ANSI A156.3 - 2008 Grade 1. Grade 1 peers in the same 36 inch class include the Hager 4501 concealed vertical rod, Hager 4601 narrow stile concealed vertical rod, Corbin Russwin ED5200 wide stile rim, Detex 10 Advantex 36 inch extra heavy duty wide stile rim, and TownSteel ED1100 heavy duty wide stile rim. The Cal-Royal 5000 36 inch rim device is Grade 2, so it would not hold a Grade 1 line on the spec.
18) Does the Detex 00 Series dummy exit device work in place of the Von Duprin EL9847EO 3 on the inactive leaf of a pair?
Only where no latching or egress function is required from that leaf. The Detex Advantex 00 Series is a super-heavy-duty dummy exit device with a wide stile design and no working latch mechanism. The EL9847EO 3 is a UL listed panic device with deadlocking top and bottom bolts at a 5/8 inch throw plus electric latch retraction. A dummy matches the appearance across a pair; it does not provide panic egress.
19) If I want night latch entry from the outside, how does the Von Duprin EL9847EO 3 compare with a dedicated night latch device?
The EL9847EO 3 can be ordered with the NL-OP night latch with optional pull trim function, and it ships EO/DT/NL field selectable. Among peers, the Sargent 8504 is a dedicated night latch function narrow stile rim device, and the Detex V4003A/03AN is a Grade 1 wide stile rim device supplied with night latch trim. The difference is device type: both Sargent and Detex options are rim devices, while the EL9847EO 3 latches with concealed vertical rods.
20) What is the difference between the Von Duprin EL9847EO 3 and the Dormakaba E2103 electrified rim device with 4908A trim?
The Dormakaba E2103-4908A-36 is an electrified 36 inch rim exit device supplied with 4908A trim in an 08 classroom function, so it is an outside-access device with keyed trim. The EL9847EO 3 is a concealed vertical rod device ordered exit only or as NL-OP night latch with optional pull, and its electrification is Electric Latch Retraction with a Request to Exit switch. Choose the Dormakaba where a classroom-function outside lever is wanted on a rim device, and the Von Duprin where rods run concealed in the leaf.
21) I have a door taller than 8 feet 4 inches - does the Von Duprin EL9847EO 3 still work, or do I need a different device?
The EL9847EO 3 covers doors 80 to 100 inches tall with two-piece adjustable rods, the top rod adjusting from 6 ft 8 in to 8 ft 4 in, and extension rod kits are available for doors over 8 ft 4 in. Extension rod assemblies exist for other platforms too - the Dexter ED1500-EXTRD-SP is a 12 inch extension rod assembly, but it is built for Dexter ED1500 exit devices and will not fit the Von Duprin rods, so the Von Duprin extension kit is the one to order against this device.
22) What finishes does the Von Duprin EL9847EO come in for matching other hardware in the building?
Fourteen finishes across both trim functions: 605 bright brass, 606 satin brass, 612 satin bronze clear coated, 613 dark oxidized satin bronze oil rubbed, 619 satin nickel plated clear coated, 625 bright chrome, 626 satin chrome, 628 satin aluminum clear anodized, 630 satin stainless, 643E aged bronze, 313 dark bronze anodized aluminum, and 315 black anodized aluminum. 626 and 630 are the usual commercial choices; 313 and 315 match anodized storefront.
23) Does the Von Duprin 9847 have dogging?
Hex key dogging is the dogging configuration on this device, letting you hold the pushpad depressed for scheduled open hours. Keep in mind that on an electrified opening the EL function already handles unlocked periods through the access control system, so mechanical dogging is often used as the manual backup.
