Sargent 776 ETL Fail-Secure Electrified Exit Lever Trim – 24VDC


**** Note: This is intended for Narrow Stile (8300 Series) and Wide Stile (8900 Series) Mortise Exit Devices ****
The Sargent 776 ETL is a high-security electrified outside trim specifically designed for Sargent 80 Series Mortise Exit Devices. Engineered for use on both Narrow Stile (8300 Series) and Wide Stile (8900 Series) doors, this trim provides a robust, electronically controlled entry solution with a vital mechanical key override. Featuring Fail-Secure operation and energy-efficient EcoFlex technology, the 776 ETL is the premier choice for centralized access control in hospitals, universities, and commercial offices.
Advanced Security with EcoFlex™ Technology
The 776 ETL is part of the legendary Sargent 700 Series, known for its through-bolted design that ensures superior security and durability in high-traffic environments.
- Fail-Secure (Power-to-Unlock) Operation: In this configuration, the lever is locked when power is off. Access is only granted when 24VDC power is applied, ensuring the exterior remains secured during power outages.
- Mechanical Key Retraction: As a 76 Function trim, it features a cylinder hole that allows a mortise cylinder (sold separately) to mechanically retract the latchbolt. This provides a critical manual backup for authorized personnel even when the power is down.
- EcoFlex Technology: This trim utilizes an advanced actuator that reduces energy consumption by up to 95%. With a continuous draw of just 15mA, it allows for more devices per power supply and prevents heat buildup at the door.
- Vandal-Resistant Grade 1 Build: The ETL escutcheon and L-Lever are ANSI/BHMA Grade 1 certified, designed to withstand the physical demands of high-use institutional corridors.
