Sargent 56-8873-J-ETB-24V Electrified Rim Exit Device, Electric Latch Retraction, Fail Safe Power Off Unlocks Lever, For 37-42 Inch Width Door, Hex Key Dogging

The Sargent 56-8873-J-ETB-24V is a Grade 1 electrified rim exit device built for demanding commercial openings up to 42 inches wide. It combines Electric Latch Retraction (ELR) for remote access control with a fail-safe design, so a loss of power automatically unlocks the ETB lever trim for free egress and reentry. The 56 prefix adds signal switch monitoring, while hex key dogging allows the device to be held in a retracted state for push-pull operation during high-traffic periods. Operating on 24V, this device is ideal for access-controlled entrances, stairwells, and secured corridors where reliable life-safety performance and smooth daily use are both essential.

Functional Details

As a fail-safe Electric Latch Retraction device, power applied to the unit retracts the latch for electrified access, and when power is removed the lever trim unlocks to allow entry and egress. This arrangement keeps the opening secure during normal operation while defaulting to a safe, accessible state during power interruptions.

• Electric Latch Retraction (ELR).
• Fail Safe: Power off unlocks lever.
