OVERVIEW
On magnetically locked, non fire-rated doors, most building codes
require an exit device that does not re-quire any special tools
or knowledge. Securitron’s patented Touch Sense Bar is the perfect
device for this
requirement. The simple act of touching the bar (even through
gloves or clothing) trips an electronic sensor which immediately
releases the lock.
The Touch Sense Bar is the ultimate in egress reliability
and safety. Having no moving parts, it does not suffer mechanical
wear and no pressure is required for use which provides superior
egress safety for frail or disabled persons. TSH-BK Satin Black

EASY INSTALLATION ON ANY DOOR
The TSB-3 and TSH come complete with fastener sets allowing quick
and strong installation on metal, aluminum frame glass or wood
doors of all types. A stain-less steel door cord is supplied with
both products to route wiring (I6 ft. cable supplied) off to the
door frame. The Touch Sense Bar is offered in three standard
door opening widths (36", 42" and 48"). For a non-standard
opening width, the TSB-3 can be easily cut down in the field.
The Model TCP accessory bracket aids the retrofit installation
of the Touch Bar on aluminum doors by covering up mounting holes
used by a Jackson or Dor-o-Matic mechanical bar which may have
been previously mounted.
The Touch Sense Handle is sized to cover up existing mounting
holes used for standard pulls on aluminum
doors. It is employed to pull open inswinging doors or as an
alternate push-open device for outswinging
doors which provide a different look on aluminum frame glass
doors. The Touch Sense Handle includes
two legend plaques which state PULL or PUSH or which may be reversed
to show a black or silver finish.
INTEGRATION WITH ACCESS CONTROL
Applications that call for controlled entry from the outside of
the door and free egress from the inside. Use of the Touch Bar
or Touch Handle as the egress device makes this simple, safe and
reliable. The units each have a double pole relay output. The
N/C contacts are wired to directly break power to the magnetic
lock when the unit is touched. The N/O contacts connect to the
REX (request to exit) terminals in the access system controller
so that no alarms event are created during free egress. Extra
safety is achieved because in the event of a failure in the access
control system, the Touch Bar or Touch Handle will still directly
releases the lock. An electronic option called out by adding the
suffix "T" to the part number adds a three second trailing
edge time delay which keeps the door re-leased for three seconds
after the unit is no longer being touched. This is used for specialty
applications. Model TSH-BK mounted on an inswinging aluminum frame
glass door.

REDUNDANT OPERATION
While the Touch Bar and Handle feature no-moving-parts electronic
reliability, they go beyond by providing a second independent
release circuit. A push button provides backup lock release function
in the event of any sensor failure. This fits into the modern
safety engineering concept of eliminating the possibility of functional
failure if any single device fails. Both the TSB-3 and TSH include
a backup release circuit., via a push button and reference label.
