Sargent 56-8873-G-ETB-12V Electrified Rim Exit Device, Electric Latch Retraction, Fail Safe Power Off Unlocks Lever, For 43-48 Inch Width Door, Hex Key Dogging

The Sargent 56-8873-G-ETB-12V is a heavy-duty electrified rim exit device engineered for demanding commercial and institutional openings. It combines Electric Latch Retraction (ELR) with a fail-safe electrified ETB lever trim, so when power is removed the lever automatically unlocks to allow free access. Built for doors ranging from 43 to 48 inches wide, this Grade 1 device includes hex key dogging for convenient manual hold-retract operation. Operating on 12V DC, the unit integrates seamlessly with access control systems and remote release schemes while delivering the durability Sargent is known for. It's an ideal choice where secure, code-compliant egress and remote electronic control are required.

Features

• Electric Latch Retraction (ELR) allows the latch to be retracted electrically for remote release and controlled access.
• Fail-safe design unlocks the lever when power is removed, ensuring access during a power loss.
• Electrified ETB lever trim provides controlled outside access tied to the access control system.
• Sized for wide openings, covering door widths from 43 to 48 inches.
• Hex key dogging enables the device to be held in a retracted position for push-pull operation.
• Grade 1 rim exit device construction for high-traffic, high-security applications.
• Operates on 12V DC for compatibility with common low-voltage access control power supplies.

Functional Details

This device uses electric latch retraction to pull back the latch electronically, permitting momentary or sustained access from the exterior through the electrified lever trim. In fail-safe mode, interrupting power releases the lever so the door can be opened without a key, supporting safe egress and emergency access.

• Electric Latch Retraction (ELR) motor-driven latch retraction.
• Fail Safe: power off unlocks the lever.
• Hex key dogging allows mechanical retraction of the latch.
• 12V DC operation.

Arm Type Details

The ETB lever trim provides a controlled exterior operating function. When energized in this fail-safe configuration, the lever remains locked; removing power unlocks the lever to allow entry.
