Sargent 56-8873-F-ETJ-12V Electrified Rim Exit Device, Electric Latch Retraction, Fail Safe Power Off Unlocks Lever, For 33-36 Inch Width Door, Hex Key Dogging

The Sargent 56-8873-F-ETJ-12V is a heavy-duty electrified rim exit device built for high-traffic commercial openings that demand reliable access control. Featuring Electric Latch Retraction (ELR), it allows the latch to be retracted electronically for remote operation, momentary release, or integration with automatic operators. This Grade 1 device operates in a fail-safe configuration, meaning a loss of power unlocks the outside ETJ lever trim for free entry. Designed for doors measuring 33 to 36 inches wide and operating on 12V power, it includes hex key dogging for convenient mechanical hold-open. Durable construction and smooth touchpad action make it a dependable choice for schools, offices, and institutional facilities.

In the fail-safe mode, removing power disengages the locking of the outside trim, letting the lever operate freely to retract the latch and permit entry.

• Fail safe (power off unlocks lever).
• Latch is retracted electrically for momentary or continuous release.
• Compatible with automatic operators and access control systems.
