Sargent LC-12-56-8876-J-ETB-24V Electrified Fire Rated Rim Exit Device, Fail Secure Power Off Locks Lever, Key Retracts Latch, Electric Latch Retraction, For 37-42" Width Door, Less Cylinder, Less Dogging
The Sargent LC-12-56-8876-J-ETB-24V is a fire rated rim exit device engineered for high-traffic commercial openings that demand both life safety and controlled access. Built with electric latch retraction operating on 24V, it allows remote unlatching for access control integration while maintaining a fail secure mode that keeps the outside lever locked when power is lost. The 56 prefix indicates signal switch monitoring, and the ETB trim pairs the device with a lever handle for key-controlled entry. Designed for door widths from 37 to 42 inches, it ships less cylinder and less dogging, making it ideal for secure entries in schools, healthcare, and institutional facilities.
Features
- Fire rated rim exit device suitable for labeled door openings requiring positive latching.
- Electric latch retraction operates on 24V for remote unlocking and access control.
- Fail secure operation keeps the outside lever locked when power is removed.
- Key retracts the latch for authorized mechanical entry.
- Sized for door widths of 37 to 42 inches.
- Supplied less cylinder, allowing you to match existing keying systems.
- Less dogging configuration as required for fire rated applications.
- ETB lever trim provides a durable, ADA-compliant grip for outside access.
Functional Details
This device uses electric latch retraction to pull the latch bolt back electrically, enabling momentary or sustained remote release through an access control system. In fail secure mode, loss of power leaves the outside lever locked, requiring a key to gain entry while free egress is always maintained from the inside.
- Electric latch retraction (EL) retracts the latch bolt electrically for remote access control.
- Fail secure: power off locks the outside lever.
- Key retracts latch for mechanical override.
- Fire rated — no mechanical dogging permitted.
Arm Type Details
The ETB trim is a lever-style outside trim that works with the exit device to allow key-controlled or electrically controlled entry. The lever remains locked in the fail secure configuration until released by key or energized latch retraction, while the push rail provides free egress at all times.
Included Components
The device ships with the 8876 rim exit chassis, ETB lever trim, electric latch retraction hardware, and mounting components. A cylinder is not included and must be ordered separately to complete the keyed function.
