Von Duprin QEL-RX-35A-NL-1439-626 Rim Exit Device, Nightlatch Trim, Electric Latch Retraction, Request to Exit, Satin Chrome

The Von Duprin QEL-RX-35A-NL-1439-626 is a rim exit device built for busy commercial openings that demand reliable access control and quiet operation. This Grade 1 device combines quiet electric latch retraction (QEL) with a built-in request-to-exit (RX) switch, allowing it to tie directly into access control systems while keeping noise to a minimum. It ships with the 1439 nightlatch trim for secure keyed entry from the exterior and comes in a durable satin chrome (626) finish. Ideal for single doors where controlled egress and remote unlatching are needed, this device delivers dependable, code-compliant performance in high-traffic environments.

Features

• Quiet electric latch retraction provides nearly silent operation compared to standard solenoid-driven devices.
• Built-in request-to-exit switch signals the access control system when the device is used.
• 1439 nightlatch trim allows keyed entry from the exterior while maintaining secure egress.
• Rim-mounted design installs on the surface of the door for straightforward application.
• Satin chrome (626) finish offers a clean, corrosion-resistant appearance.
• Grade 1 construction stands up to the demands of high-use commercial doors.

Functional Details

The QEL function uses a motorized latch retraction mechanism that quietly pulls the latch back, allowing the door to be pushed or pulled open freely when the access control system energizes the device. The RX switch monitors device use and reports egress activity to the connected system.

• Quiet Electric Latch Retraction (QEL) retracts the latch electronically for near-silent operation.
• Request to Exit (RX) signals when the touchbar is depressed.
• Electric latch retraction allows remote dogging and momentary unlatching.

Arm Type Details

As a rim exit device, the 35A mounts to the surface of the door and engages a strike mounted to the frame. The touchbar spans the width of the door, and depressing it either mechanically or electrically retracts the latch for free egress.

Included Components

This device includes the 35A rim exit chassis with QEL and RX functions, the 1439 nightlatch exterior trim, and the mounting hardware required for installation.
