Sargent 56-LC-8875-G-ETJ-12V Electrified Rim Exit Device, Fail Safe, For 43-48" Dr Widths, Electric Latch Retraction, Less Cylinder

The Sargent 56-LC-8875-G-ETJ-12V is a heavy-duty electrified rim exit device built for high-traffic commercial openings that require remote access control. Designed for door widths from 43 to 48 inches, it features 12V electric latch retraction (ELR) that pulls the latch back electronically, allowing push/pull operation and integration with access control, card readers, or automatic operators. Configured as fail safe, the latch retracts and remains unlocked when power is removed, supporting controlled egress during power loss. The LC designation means the device ships less cylinder, and the ETJ trim provides lever-operated access from the exterior. It's a dependable choice for institutional, healthcare, and commercial facilities.

Functional Details

Electric latch retraction uses a low-current motor to mechanically withdraw the latchbolt, enabling momentary or sustained retraction. In fail safe mode, removing power releases the latch so the door can be freely pushed or pulled, which is ideal for openings that must unlock during emergencies or power interruptions.

• Electric latch retraction (ELR) allows the latch to be retracted electrically for remote access and push/pull operation.
• Fail safe: latch unlocks when power is removed.
• Designed for use with access control and automatic operators.

Arm Type Details

The ETJ trim is a keyed lever trim configuration. The exterior lever controls access to the opening and works in conjunction with the exit device's latch retraction, providing secure entry while maintaining free egress from the interior push bar.
