Briton 996 Electromagnetic Door Controls

The Briton 996 Series is ideal for use in areas where
a conventional door closer could be inconvenient or
hinder access. The use of electromagnetic 'hold-open'
and 'swing-free' door control devices is specifically
recommended in Approved Document M of the
Building Regulations 2004.

Briton 996 Series Features
In order to meet the requirements of The Disability
Discrimination Act and the revision to The Building
Regulations, Part M:2004 it is necessary to consider
carefully the use of conventional door closers on
entrance doors and other circulation doors within a
building.
The Briton 996 Series is a range of fixed power
closers with an integrated electromagnetic hold
open mechanism. When connected to the building
fire alarm or detection system each unit can be set
to either ‘hold-open’ or ‘swing-free’ operation. In
either case the power of the closer can be temporarily
disabled to allow free passage. When de-activated the
electromagnet disengages and the door closer closes
the door in the normal manner to maintain fire safety.

Designed and fully compliant with EN 1154 and EN
1155 for electrically controlled closing devices (for
further details see page 4)
Unit is supplied with armset and bracket for Fig.1 or
Fig.61 and is self handed to reduce the number of
stockholding units required. For Fig.66 please specify
when ordering
‘Catch plate’ can be set to operate in hold open
or swing free operation during installation to suit
individual doorset requirements within a building
Pressure die cast aluminium body
Steel rack and pinion mechanism is heat treated for
strength and durability
Separate latch action and closing speed adjustment
provides total accuracy of adjustment of the full
closing cycle

Briton badge of authenticity
Fabricated steel cover available in a range of
architectural finishes which suite with the Briton
2000 and 2100 Series closers with Classic covers to
complement a variety of door hardware ranges
Electromagnet is controlled by the building fire
alarm/detector system and activates the ‘catch plate’
to ensure the door closes automatically in the event
of a fire
Optional rear cable entry allows units to be installed
with concealed cable using a separate concealed door
loop to protect the closer against vandalism

Specification Helper
The Briton ‘FSR’ range
of continuously rated,
boxed power supplies will provide
transformation/ rectification of the mains supply for
use with the Briton 996 Series.

Supplied with armoured power loop to run power
safely from the door frame to the closer unit

It is suggested that all electromagnetic hold open door
closers be fitted with a release button close to the
door frame so that the door can be released without
having to manually pull the door away from the hold
open mechanism.

Angle of hold open is adjustable from approximately
85˚ to 95˚, and from 103˚ to 110˚ when fitted on the
standard pull side of the door, from 85˚ to 95˚ when
fitted to the transom, and from 65˚ to 85˚ and 90˚ to
105˚ when fitted on the push side of the door.

Briton 996 Series
Each of the door controls in the Briton 996 Series is a
fixed power size and is designed for mounting either
to the pull side of the door in Fig.1 applications,
or to the push side of the door in Fig.61 or Fig.66
applications (as illustrated below). In each case the
size of closer specified should be carefully selected to
suit the dimensions and weight of the door concerned
(see chart on page 14).

Power requirements
When the Briton 996 is transom mounted (Fig.61 below) the external loop is not
required, as the power supply can be linked directly to the unit through the frame.
This not only creates a more visually appealing arrangement but by eliminating the
surface loop reduces the risk of damage to the unit from vandalism.

For the operation of the closer the power requirements
are 24V DC, 90mA nominal. Transformers and relay
interfaced to the fire alarm system can also be
supplied to link the electricity supply and the fire
alarm system (see chart below).

Application 61

FSR Transformer/Rectifier
For use with fire/smoke check electromagnetic door
control units where 24V DC is not available for the
continuous rating required. A socket is provided to
accept a plug-in relay.
