Sargent 70-775-8-ETME-24V Electrified Exit Device Trim, 24V Fail Safe, Key Retracts Latch, ET Control, ME Lever, SFIC, Less Core, For 80 Series Exit Devices, Grade 1
The Sargent 70-775-8-ETME-24V is a Grade 1 electrified exit device trim engineered for secure, controlled access on 80 Series exit devices. Operating on 24V DC in a fail-safe configuration, this trim allows the lever to become active during a power loss, supporting safe egress and reliable access control. It features the ET control housing paired with the ME lever design and accepts a small format interchangeable core (SFIC), shipped less core so you can match your existing keying system. A key retracts latch function provides mechanical override, making this trim a dependable choice for institutional, commercial, and high-traffic openings.

Functional Details
In a fail-safe configuration, the trim unlocks when power is removed, allowing the outside lever to retract the latch for entry. When powered, the trim remains secured until an authorized credential or key is used. The key retracts latch feature lets a cylinder key mechanically pull the latch independent of electrical control.
- Fail safe: lever is unlocked when power is removed.
- Key retracts latch for mechanical override.
- Operates on 24V DC.
Included Components
The trim includes the ET control housing with ME lever and SFIC cylinder provision. The interchangeable core is not included and must be ordered separately to match your keying requirements.
