Corbin Russwin A905ET 626 RHR – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Does the Corbin Russwin x9905ET electric trim stay locked or unlocked when the power goes out?

It stays locked. The x9905ET is fail secure trim: locked when power is off, unlocked when power is on. Egress is never affected, since pushing the touchbar on the ED5000 device always retracts the latch from the inside regardless of power. What you lose in a power failure is outside access through the lever, so plan key override or a rim cylinder into the order if people need to get back in during an outage.

2) What voltage does the Corbin Russwin x9905ET electric exit trim run on, and does it need DC only?

12 to 24 VDC, and it will take either AC or DC input because there is an internal rectifier built in. Current draw is 400mA inrush and 15mA continuous at 12-24 VDC, so size the power supply for the inrush figure, not the holding figure, especially if you are running several openings off one supply.

3) Will Corbin Russwin x9905ET trim fit a 2 inch thick door?

Yes, but it has to be specified. The x9905ET is built for 1-3/4 inch (44mm) doors as standard, with option D200 for 2 inch (51mm) and D214 for 2-1/4 inch (57mm). Those are order-time options, not field adjustments, so measure the leaf before you place the order.

4) Do I have to specify handing when ordering Corbin Russwin ED5000 electric lever trim?

Yes. The ED5000 exit device itself is non-handed, but lever trim is handed, and the x9905ET is ordered LHR (left hand reverse) or RHR (right hand reverse). Exit devices are always reverse bevel, so stand outside the door: if the hinges are on your right, it is RHR. Get this wrong and the lever is upside down.

5) What is the minimum stile width for a Corbin Russwin ED5000 exit device on an aluminum storefront door?

4-1/2 inches (114mm). The ED5000 is a wide stile device, so it will not go on a typical narrow stile aluminum entrance. If your storefront stile is under 4-1/2 inches you need a narrow stile device and narrow stile trim instead, such as the BEST 2900 Series 2901 lever trim for 2000 Series narrow stile devices.

6) Do I need a cylinder with the Corbin Russwin x9905ET, and what kind?

Cylinder choice is a required selection: less cylinder (standard), conventional 6-pin, or conventional 7-pin. The classification is rim, so if you are supplying your own it needs to be a rim cylinder in your keyway, not a mortise cylinder. Buildings already keyed to a 7-pin system should take the 7-pin option so the trim falls into the existing master key plan.

7) Can I add x9905ET electric trim to exit devices I already have installed?

If they are ED5000 or FE5400S Series devices, yes. The x9905ET is built for that series and retrofits into existing installations of it. It is not a universal electric trim, so it will not go on a Von Duprin, Sargent or Precision device. For those, look at the Command Access electrified trims, which cover other brands: the 230L is built for Von Duprin 23 Series devices, and the ET15, ET25 and ET26 cover other device families.

8) Is the Corbin Russwin ED5000 fire rated, and can I use this electric trim on a fire door?

The ED5000 line is UL and cUL listed panic and 3-hour fire exit hardware, and complies with NFPA 101 and NFPA 80. It is ANSI/BHMA A156.3 Grade 1 and also California State Fire Marshal approved. Note that on a fire exit device you do not get mechanical dogging, so the touchbar cannot be held retracted the way it can on a panic-only opening.

9) What is the closest equivalent to the Corbin Russwin x9905ET electric trim from another manufacturer?

The Corbin Russwin x9905ET is a fail secure electrically controlled trim that stays locked when power is off and unlocked when power is on, operating on 12-24 VDC with an internal rectifier. Command Access offers a family of electrified exit trims that operate on 12V/24V with fail safe and fail secure options, including the ET15, ET25 and ET26. The Command Access ET26 is described as Grade 1 construction with a field reversible design. Falcon builds the 510L-FSA/FSE, a 25 Series electrified heavy duty exit device trim with a lever handle. Von Duprin offers the E360L-BE-03, a Grade 1 electric passage exit trim with the 03 lever for 33/35A Series devices, configured fail safe. The deciding factor is the device family: the x9905ET is built for the ED5000/FE5400S Series, while the Falcon fits 25 Series and the Von Duprin E360L fits 33/35A Series.

10) If access control is not being installed, what mechanical trim does the same job as the Corbin Russwin x9905ET?

The x9905ET is electrically controlled, so it requires power and wiring to the door. Where the opening is keyed rather than controlled, a mechanical storeroom or entry trim covers it: the Design Hardware KIL storeroom function exit trim is Grade 1 with a Schlage C keyway and flat lever, and the KIL entry function version is the same trim in entry function. Pamex builds the E9000 Grade 1 storeroom trim with the L3 lever for doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch thick. Marks USA offers the M195F storeroom function lever and rose trim with spring loaded roses for M9900 touchbar devices. Tell's EDELT80 is a storeroom function escutcheon lever trim and the EDELT53 is the keyed entry version, both for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. Match the trim to the exit device family already on the door.

11) Can I put a Command Access ET25 or Von Duprin E360L on a Corbin Russwin ED5000 device instead of the x9905ET?

Exit trim is matched to the device family, not swapped freely. The x9905ET is built for the Corbin Russwin ED5000/FE5400S Series. The Von Duprin E360L-BE-03 is specified for 33/35A Series devices, the Falcon 510L-FSA/FSE for the 25 Series, and the Command Access ET15, ET25 and ET26 are each their own series. Verify the device model stamped on the existing touchbar before ordering electrified trim, since the chassis, spindle and prep are what determine fit.

12) For a classroom door, is the x9905ET the right trim or should I use a classroom function trim?

The x9905ET is fail secure electric trim, which suits a classroom that is locked and unlocked centrally or on a schedule. For a classroom controlled by key at the door, the Falcon 510L is a heavy duty classroom function exit device trim with a lever handle for 24/25 Series devices, and the Falcon 179L is the 1790 Series medium duty classroom lever control trim. Accentra's 446F is a Grade 1 classroom function exit device trim with the Augusta lever, and the Dexter ED1000T-CLRM-TP-NC is a Grade 1 classroom trim with thumbpiece, pull plate and cylinder prep supplied less cylinder. Lockdown policy usually decides this: electric trim can be released from a central point, while mechanical classroom trim requires someone at the door with a key.

13) My door is thicker than 1-3/4 inches. Which exit trims will fit?

The Corbin Russwin x9905ET is standard for 1-3/4 inch (44mm) doors, with optional configurations for 2 inch (51mm) via D200 and 2-1/4 inch (57mm) via D214. Among other lines, the Pamex E9000 Grade 1 storeroom trim covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors. The Tell EDELT53, EDELT80, EDTHP53 and EDPT trims are each rated 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, so they stop at standard thickness. Measure the leaf before ordering, since trim that is short on a thick door leaves the spindle underengaged.

14) For a fire rated opening, which exit trims should I not be considering alongside the Corbin Russwin x9905ET?

The x9905ET is part of a line that is UL/cUL listed for panic and 3-hour fire exit hardware and compliant with NFPA 101 and NFPA 80. The Accentra 121NL nightlatch trim, 426F Augusta lever escutcheon trim, AU-441F night latch keyed lever trim and 446F classroom trim each carry a fire rating of No, so they belong on non-rated openings. On a rated door the trim, device and frame all have to carry the listing together, so verify the label on the leaf before you order.

15) Will the ED5200 rim device latch into a strike I already have on the frame?

Probably not without changing the strike. The ED5200 rim latchbolt is a stainless steel pullman type with a 3/4 inch (19mm) throw and a deadlocking auxiliary latch, and Corbin Russwin supplies its own surface-mounted 3/8 inch roller strike with a positive locking plate and shims. That roller strike is what the 3/4 inch throw is set up to catch, and the shims are how you take up the gap on an out of square frame. Plan on mounting the supplied strike rather than reusing an old one.

16) How much clearance does the Corbin Russwin ED5000 touchbar need in the corridor?

Projection is 3-1/4 inches (83mm) with the bar at rest and 2-3/4 inches (70mm) when the device is dogged down. That is the figure to use when you are checking egress path width or whether the door will swing clear of a wall, railing or adjacent leaf.

17) What bar length do I need for a 42 inch wide door with a Corbin Russwin ED5000?

Order the 48 inch bar. Standard is 36 inch, which covers 30 to 36 inch doors, with optional 24 inch and 48 inch lengths. The bar can be field cut, so on an oversize leaf you take the 48 inch and trim it down rather than trying to stretch the 36.

18) Is electric trim the right choice, or should I use electric latch retraction on the exit device instead?

Electric trim controls the outside lever only: energize it and the lever turns, de-energize it and the lever is locked but the door still pushes open from inside. That is what you want for card reader access on a single opening where the door should stay latched. Electric latch retraction pulls the latch back entirely so the door is genuinely push-pull open, which is what you need to hold an entrance unlatched during business hours or to pair with an operator. The ED5000 line offers both, plus delayed egress and electric dogging, so pick by whether the door needs to stay latched or come free.

19) Will Corbin Russwin x9905ET trim match the lever style and finish on the rest of my building?

There are eight escutcheon and lever designs (A9 Armstrong, C9 Citation, D9 Dirke, E9 Essex, L9 Lustra, N9 Newport, PR9 Princeton, R9 Regis) and fourteen finishes, running from 626 satin chrome and 630 satin stainless through 605 and 606 brass, 611, 612, 613 and 613E bronze, 618 and 619 nickel, 625 bright chrome, 722 oil-rubbed black bronze, and BSP black suede powder coat. Match the lever design to the locksets on your interior openings and the number code to your existing finish schedule.

20) What is a cheaper alternative to electric exit trim if I only need key access from outside?

If nobody needs card or remote control of the opening, skip the electrified trim and use mechanical night latch trim, where a key retracts the latch and the lever or pull is otherwise rigid. The Sargent 704ET and 704-ETL are Grade 1 heavy duty night latch lever trims, and the Dexter ED1500 nightlatch trim with a raised lip pull plate covers the same job with a pull instead of a lever. Those have no power supply, no wiring and no door loop to install. Go to the x9905ET when the opening has to be unlocked by a reader or a schedule.

21) Can I use one exit device setup on a pair of doors with no mullion?

Not with a rim device. A rim latch throws into a strike on the frame or on a mullion, so a pair without a mullion needs the surface vertical rod version instead, the ED5400, which latches at the head with a 3/4 inch throw pullman deadlocking bolt and at the threshold with a 5/8 inch throw deadbolt. The x9905ET electric trim works across the ED5000 Series, so you can still run electric access control on the SVR leaf.

22) How do I hold the door unlatched during business hours with a Corbin Russwin ED5000?

Standard dogging on the panic devices is single-point 1/4-turn hex key, so a staff member dogs the bar down in the morning with the hex key and undogs it at close. If you would rather not hand out a key, specify cylinder dogging so it works off the keyway, or electric dogging so it follows a time schedule from the access control panel. None of these apply to a fire rated opening.

23) What is the difference between an electrified exit trim and a standalone electronic pushbutton trim?

The Corbin Russwin x9905ET is an electrically controlled trim: it takes 12-24 VDC from an access control system and locks or unlocks the 900 Series lever trim on command, staying locked with power off. It has no credential reader of its own. Dormakaba's E-Plex 201U is an electronic pushbutton exit trim, a wide stile trim that carries its own keypad, and the PowerPlex P201U is an exit trim for rim, mortise and SVR devices in the PowerPlex 2000 Series. Those are standalone units that make the access decision at the door, so they do not need a wired connection back to a panel. If the building already has an access control head end, the x9905ET ties into it; if it does not, a pushbutton trim avoids running power to the opening.

24) What trim looks like a substitute for the x9905ET but will not give me controlled access?

Several lever trims share the escutcheon and lever appearance without the function. The Detex 02BN is a dummy S-lever trim with a blank escutcheon, and the Von Duprin 230DT is a dummy trim with a heavy duty 10 gauge steel escutcheon for 22 Series devices, so neither retracts a latch or accepts control. The Falcon 212L is a 20 Series escutcheon lever trim in blank escutcheon function with shear pin protection, and the Von Duprin 210K-BE is a knob trim with blank escutcheon for 22 Series. The Arrow SRX01 is a passage function Sierra lever with rose, which is always free from both sides. The x9905ET, by contrast, is fail secure and stays locked on the outside when power is off.

25) What should I use instead of the x9905ET if the door only needs to be unlocked by key from the outside?

The x9905ET is electrically controlled trim for openings managed by an access system. A night latch trim covers the key-only case: the Sargent 704ET is a Grade 1 heavy duty night latch lever trim with field reversible operation in the 700 Series, and the 704-ETL is the PE Series night latch lever trim with key retract. Sargent's 744 is a Grade 1 freewheeling night latch trim where the key retracts the latch, for surface vertical rod and mortise 8700 and 8900 Series devices. Accentra's AU-441F is a night latch keyed lever trim with the Augusta design, and the 121NL is a nightlatch trim. Von Duprin's 110MD-NL is a Grade 1 night latch cylinder assembly for metal and wood doors. The x9905ET does share the freewheeling idea, since its Free Wheeling levers are offered for vandal resistance.

26) Is there an electrified exit trim that is field reversible instead of ordered by hand?

The Corbin Russwin x9905ET is ordered by handing, LHR left hand reverse or RHR right hand reverse. The Command Access ET26 is an electrified exit trim with Grade 1 construction and a field reversible design, so one part covers either hand. Among mechanical trims, the Sargent 704ET night latch lever trim is Grade 1 heavy duty with field reversible operation. Field reversible trim is worth considering when stocking spares across a facility with doors swinging both ways.

27) I need a thumbpiece or pull instead of a lever on the outside. What are my options against the x9905ET?

The x9905ET is lever trim, ADA compliant, with eight escutcheon designs. Where a lever is not wanted, Tell's EDTHP53 is a thumbpiece trim in keyed entry function for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, and Dexter's ED1000T-CLRM-TP-NC is a Grade 1 classroom trim combining thumbpiece, pull plate and cylinder, supplied less cylinder. Dexter also offers the ED1500 Series nightlatch trim with a raised lip pull plate and a dummy function version with a handle pull plate. Note that lever trim is what satisfies ADA operability, so confirm the accessibility requirement for the opening before moving to a thumbpiece.

28) Which exit trims are rated Grade 1 like the Corbin Russwin x9905ET?

The x9905ET is ANSI/BHMA A156.3 Grade 1. Other Grade 1 exit trims include the Command Access ET26 electrified trim with field reversible design, the Dexter ED1500T Series trim with regular lever and the ED1000T classroom thumbpiece trim, the Pamex E9000 storeroom trim, the Design Hardware KIL entry and storeroom trims and LE08 entry trim with flat lever and escutcheon, the Sargent 704ET, 704-ETL and 744 night latch trims, and the Von Duprin 210K-BE knob trim, 230DT dummy trim and 110MD-NL night latch cylinder assembly. Grade 1 is the cycle and strength class institutional specs usually call for, but it does not by itself say anything about function or device compatibility.

29) Does the Corbin Russwin x9905ET lever meet ADA requirements for accessible openings?

Yes. The x9905ET lever trim is ADA compliant, as are the pulls across the ED5000 line. The levers are also free wheeling, meaning they spin freely when locked instead of transferring force into the chassis, which is how the trim survives someone hanging on the handle on a high traffic entrance.

30) What is the difference between the ED5200 rim latch and the SecureBolt option?

Both throw 3/4 inch, but they hold differently. The standard ED5200 rim latch is a pullman-type stainless bolt with a deadlocking auxiliary latch. The ED5200S SecureBolt is a deadbolt-style bolt, 3/4 inch (19mm) projection by 1 inch wide, positively deadlocked by an auxiliary bolt. The wider deadbolt-style body is the one to specify where the door is exposed and you are worried about someone trying to force or loid the latch, such as a back-of-house or street-facing entrance.
