Alarm Controls Corporation MT-1F Mini Timer Fail Safe

Product Description

The ALARM CONTROLS CORPORATION MT-1F is a mini timer with fail-safe operation designed for use in access control and egress systems. Fail-safe design means the device defaults to an unlocked or open state when power is lost, supporting life-safety code compliance in commercial and institutional installations. The MT-1F provides timed output control in a compact form factor suited for panel or door-frame mounting. Access control technicians and licensed electricians install this device as part of exit device and push button circuits.

The MT-1F is used in commercial door hardware assemblies where timed, fail-safe control of exit devices or electric strikes is required. Typical applications include access-controlled doorways in office buildings, schools, and healthcare facilities where egress timing must meet local fire and life-safety codes. This unit falls within the exit devices and push button product category and is sold as a single unit.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed electrician or credentialed access control technician. Disconnect and lock out all power to the access control panel and door hardware before beginning work. Consult applicable local electrical codes and NFPA 101 life-safety requirements when integrating fail-safe devices into egress systems. Do not energize the circuit until all wiring connections are verified and covers are secured.
