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

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.

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

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

Pressure die cast aluminium body

Designed and fully compliant with EN 1154 and EN

1155 for electrically controlled closing devices (for

further details see page 4)

‘Catch plate’ can be set to operate in hold open

or swing free operation during installation to suit

individual doorset requirements within a building

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

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

Supplied with armoured power loop to run power

safely from the door frame to the closer unit

Angle of hold open

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.

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.

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.

Power requirements

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).

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.

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).

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.
