DE Delayed Egress Device

ANSI Grade 1 Heavy Duty

The Delayed Egress Exit Device provides a controlled egress for openings which require panic or fire exit hardware for safe egress. It is a self contained exit device, when armed it will deny exit to unauthorized personnel for 15 or 30 seconds, while simultaneously sounding a local or remote audible alarm. The Remote Monitoring feature will alert the security personnel that an attempt is being made to exit the opening. After the 15 (or 30) second delay of egress period, the device will function as a standard exit device for safe egress.

Operation

The device secures the door in the locked mode with a red LED indicating locked status. Depressing the Push bar by accident or for less than the nuisance delay time will sound the alarm without initiating the alarm sequence. Depressing the Push bar with less than 15 pounds pressure, for longer than the nuisance delay time will initiate an irreversible local audible beeping tone and a visual Red indicator until the device releases. After the delay egress time, the lock releases and the alarm changes to a steady tone which continues to alarm until reset. The remote monitoring contact output can be used to alert security personnel.
