Delayed Egress System – Overview
The Delayed Egress electromagnetic lock is a fail safe device.
In the normal condition with power, the door is locked, the local
buzzer is off, the local SPDT relay is de-energized and the remote
alarm DPDT relay is energized.
The exit sequence starts with a slight push to the door. A nuisance
delay period can be set for 0, 1, 2 or 3 seconds as defined by the
local building code. During this period the local buzzer will pulse
and the local alarm relay will be energized. If pressure on the door
is withdrawn during this period the system returns to normal
conditions. This would be considered accidental triggering.
If pressure is maintained for longer than the set nuisance delay, an
irreversable release delay sequence begins. This release delay is
for 15 seconds, but may be extended to 30 seconds with
permission of the Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ). It includes
the short nuisance delay. Pressure is no longer required on the
door. The remote relay de-energizes. The local buzzer changes
from a pulse to steady.
The lock releases when the release delay time ends. The local
buzzer stops and the local alarm relay will de-energize. The system
relock is defined by the local building code.
All installations must be approved by the local Authority Having
Jurisdiction (AHJ).
Lock Assembly
The Delayed Egress Electromagnetic Lock come with screws that inhibit
the insertion of an Allen wrench into the mounting bolt openings on the
underside of the lock. These screws will need to be removed prior to
installing the lock so as to allow the mounting plate to be removed from
the top of the lock. Fig 1 illustrates the location of these screws.

Several building codes
including the NFPA 101 Life
Safety Code and the
International Building Code
require the signage (shown
left) to be mounted on the
door close to the releasing
device.

** If forced open before the set release delay has lapsed, the sounder and voice indicators can only be turned off by switching
the system power off.
