Detex 101796 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What exactly is the Detex 101796 and what part does it replace?
The 101796 is the holder switch actuator used on Detex 230 Series exit devices, supplied as a genuine OEM component. It replaces just that actuator rather than the whole switch assembly, so you can restore switch function without pulling and replacing the complete device.
2) Will the Detex 101796 work with an ECL-308 or ECL-309 switch actuator assembly?
Yes. The 101796 holder switch actuator is built for direct integration with both the ECL-308 and ECL-309 switch actuator configurations on the 230 Series platform, so it drops in without modification.
3) Is the 101796 the correct part if my exit device is not a Detex 230 Series?
No. The 101796 actuator is specific to the Detex 230 Series exit device platform and the ECL-308/ECL-309 switch actuator configurations. If your device is a different Detex series or another brand, this actuator is not the right part and you should source the holder switch actuator listed for that device.
4) Is this an aftermarket actuator or a factory Detex part?
It is a genuine OEM Detex component, not an aftermarket copy, built to the same standards as the original equipment on the device. That matters when a facility keeps its exit hardware standardized on factory parts.
5) Do I need to buy the whole ECL-308 switch assembly, or can I just replace the actuator?
If the holder switch actuator itself is the failed piece, the 101796 lets you do a component-level repair instead of replacing the full assembly. It is the specific actuator part for the 230 Series with ECL-308/309 switch actuator configurations, so the rest of the assembly stays in place.
6) Is the Detex 101796 suitable for high-traffic commercial openings, or is it a light-duty part?
It is a commercial-grade part, classified for commercial rather than residential use, and built to original equipment standards for exit device service. Typical use is office buildings, schools, hospitals, retail, warehouses, multi-tenant residential, and government facilities.
7) Is there more than one version of the 101796 to choose from?
No options to specify. The 101796 holder switch actuator is sold as a single configuration under that part number, so there is no finish, handing, or size selection to make when ordering.
