Lead-posts: shall be of 24-gauge cold rolled steel and shall be connected by specially formed steel panels. An internally mounted stabilizer bar shall keep lead-posts plumb and in proper alignment during operation and insure a tight fitting closure. E. Perimeter Seals: shall consist of continuous extruded vinyl sweeps attached to the top and bottom of the fire door to form a smoke and draft seal. F. Hanging weight shall be 5.5 pounds per square foot. G. Automatic Closing System shall consist of the following: 1. Microprocessor based Electronic Control box with these features: a. Ability to monitor dual power sources continually for peak performance including: 1. Detect a missing battery, bad battery, or low battery condition. 2. Detect if the charging circuit is bad. 3. Detect fuse failures. 4. Detect high or low AC conditions. b. Ability to monitor the health of the drive train including: 1. Direction errors, obstruction errors, hindrance errors, and position errors. 2. Active daily path checks, by actually closing and opening to assure a clear path and proper operation. 3. Ability to monitor a passive input such as an infrared light beam to assure the closing path is clear. c. Ability to monitor inputs including: 1. Sticky door block, exit hardware, patron hardware, and key switches. 2. Key switch mis-wires where key open and key close are both on simultaneously. d. Ability to self-monitor the health of: 1. Internal volatile and non-volatile memory. 2. Proper operation of firmware. e. Ability to run a “watch dog” monitoring circuit which will force a software restart in the event the software hangs, including the ability to track the number of resets that occur for diagnostic purposes. f. Ability to record the number of times the door has closed, opened, lost communication with external microprocessors, and the number of times the controller has been reset manually. g.

Ability to communicate with other microprocessors on the system via an internal bus system, including but not limited to microprocessors on the motor drive, in the leading edge of the door, and on a wall mounted display panel adjacent to the door. k. Ability to indicate trouble or supervised information both locally and at a remote location. Communication to the remote location shall be by either relay logic or digital data streams to our proprietary ASL system (see options). 2. Motor Operator Assembly including: a. A DC gear-motor, drive sprocket, clutch, and position sensors. The motor shall drive the fire door by means of a chain attached to a stabilizer bar trolley each time the door operates including the initial closing cycle. 3. A door control momentary rocker switch shall be mounted on one side of the door near the lead post and shall have the following functions: Pressing the upper portion of the switch shall close the door and/or clear fault conditions. Pressing the lower portion of the switch shall open the door and/or temporarily mute the local horn. For doors using wall mounted key switches, option L, a color coordinated cover plate shall be provided to fill the hole left when the rocker switch is removed. 4. The control box shall be equipped with a service switch that performs the following functions: a. When the switch is off with AC power present, the controller shall emit an audible coded sound indicating the system is out of service. In this mode all normal functions shall cease including motor and communications. b. When the switch is off and AC power is not present, the controller shall enter a sleep mode during which the system shall use the battery to monitor the AC line for power but do nothing else. c. When the switch is moved from the off position to the on position, the controller shall enter a calibrate mode where it emits a coded audible alert indicating that the door needs to be closed to complete the calibration sequence. As soon as the door is closed, the controller shall automatically stop the audible alert, and resume all normal functions and monitoring. H. Leading Edge Obstruction Detector: 1. Shall be pressure sensitive such that each contact with an obstruction shall cause the door to stop, reverse enough to remove pressure on the leading edge, pause, and then re-close when in an alarm condition. The leading edge obstruction detector shall be fully functional at all times, including during the initial closing cycle. 2. Constant pressure to the leading edge in the direction of opening shall, while the door is opening under motor power, continue to open under motor power until the leading edge is released. This is termed motor assisted opening. 3. Constant pressure to the leading edge while not under motor power shall prevent motor operation and allow the door to be opened manually. I. Exit Hardware shall be located on both sides of each fire door. 1. In emergency mode, a slight pressure on the hardware will cause the door to open a minimum of 32 inches, pause for 3 seconds, and then automatically close. 2. The open distance shall be field programmable, up to the entire opening width, if the local authority requires an opening larger than 32 inches. 3. The pause before re-close shall be field programmable, up to 30 seconds, if the local authority requires a longer pause time. 4. The exit hardware shall have the ability when not in the emergency (fire) mode or the security (lock) mode to be used to open the door and move it back into the storage pocket. 5. The exit hardware shall be field programmable to provide access control. When programmed, the exit hardware shall not respond when pressed until activated by signal from smoke detector or fire alarm. J. Suffix “E” doors shall include the following extras; track seals, anti-sway brackets every five feet or less across the opening, modified lead post trolleys and on “S” doors foil tape between the panels and the smoke liner.
