Detex V40EE-628 Delayed Egress Rim Exit Device, 15-Second Delay

The Detex V40EE-628 is a 36/48-inch delayed egress exit device from the trusted V40 Series, featuring a built-in 15-second delay and 100dB alarm for controlled egress applications. Designed for facilities that require loss prevention and security while still maintaining code-compliant life safety egress, this model provides high performance at an economical price point.

This version ships without a power supply, allowing installers to integrate it with an existing controller or specify a separate logic power system (e.g., Detex 106595-1 or equivalent). Its modular configuration allows connection to fire alarm systems for override, and it accepts remote signal and bypass inputs when used with compatible accessories.

The V40EE’s construction includes a durable aluminum rail, angled end cap for impact deflection, and a field-sizeable, non-handed chassis that simplifies installation. Standard features include a surface strike (99), and it fits wood, aluminum, fiberglass, or hollow metal doors.
