The Sargent 68-5450 is a genuine OEM Center Chassis Assembly (Active Case) designed for the Sargent 12-53-NB-8700 Series Surface Vertical Rod (SVR) exit device. This assembly is a highly specialized "triple-option" component: it is Fire-Rated (12-), configured for No Bottom Rod (NB) applications, and includes the -53 Latchbolt Monitoring electrical feature. Precision-engineered for Right Hand Reverse (RHR) openings and sold "Less Cover," this factory-spec chassis is the professional solution for maintaining secure, electronically monitored fire-rated exits.
Institutional Grade Features & Benefits
- Integrated Latchbolt Monitoring (-53): Built-in switches provide real-time electronic feedback to your access control or building management system, confirming the door is positively latched.
- "NB" (No Bottom Rod) Logic: Specifically timed to operate only the top vertical rod, eliminating the need for floor strikes and reducing long-term maintenance in high-traffic areas.
- UL Fire-Rated (12-) Security: Engineered with the heavy-duty internal components required to maintain the fire label on critical life-safety openings.
- RHR Specific Engineering: Factory-configured for Right Hand Reverse doors to ensure perfect synchronization between the push rail and the top latching mechanism.
- Direct OEM Replacement: Allows for a modular repair of the 8700 Series device, restoring both mechanical egress and electronic monitoring without the cost of a full unit replacement.
