Detex V40 Eb Cd 628 99 48 Rim Exit Device 48 in

Product Description

The DETEX V40 EB CD 628 99 48 is a wide stile rim exit device from the Value Series line, designed for single-door egress applications requiring both panic hardware and integrated alarm capability. The device spans 48 inches to accommodate wide stile door configurations and features cylinder dogging, which allows the latch to be held in the retracted position for high-traffic access control scenarios. A battery-operated alarm activates on door opening, providing an audible alert without the need for hardwired connections. The unit ships less cylinder, meaning the door cylinder must be sourced separately. The finish is satin aluminum clear anodized, designated 628, offering corrosion resistance in light commercial and institutional environments.

This exit device is suited for commercial and institutional buildings where life-safety egress codes require panic hardware on outswing doors. Typical installations include school corridors, office buildings, warehouses, and light industrial facilities. The battery-operated alarm function makes it appropriate for doors where a local deterrent alarm is needed without a full access control system. The 99 surface strike is included, simplifying field installation on doors where a surface-mounted strike is preferred over a frame-mortised option.

• Wide stile rim exit device configuration fits doors with wide stile frames

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation rim exit device for 48-inch wide stile single doors in commercial and institutional applications requiring life-safety panic hardware.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed door hardware specialist or qualified locksmith familiar with ANSI and IBC egress requirements. Disengage all power and verify the door is secured before beginning hardware removal or installation. Cylinder dogging must not be used on doors required to be self-latching under local fire or life-safety codes without authority-having-jurisdiction approval. Follow the manufacturer's template and mounting instructions for proper rail alignment and strike positioning.
