Sargent 70-776-8-ETMI-24V Electrified Exit Device Trim, 24V Fail Secure, Key Retracts Latch, ET Control, MI Lever, SFIC Prep, Less Core, For 80 Series Exit Devices, Grade 1

The Sargent 70-776-8-ETMI-24V is a Grade 1 electrified exit device trim engineered for secure, controlled access on 80 Series exit devices. Operating on 24V in a fail secure configuration, this trim keeps the outside lever locked during a power loss, making it ideal for perimeter doors and high-security applications. It features the ET control with the MI lever design and is prepped for a Small Format Interchangeable Core (SFIC), allowing facility managers to integrate their existing keying systems. Shipped less core, the trim gives installers flexibility to add the appropriate cylinder. Built to Sargent's durable standards, it delivers reliable performance for commercial and institutional environments.
