Read MoreThe Jack Fuse Electronic Break Glass (EBG) redefines emergency door release functionality with a unique combination of local, remote, and automatic reset options. Designed for high-security and remotely managed facilities, it eliminates the need for manual resets, significantly reducing response time, labour costs, and unnecessary door unlock duration after activation.
The EBG is ideal for:
• Emergency door release
• Electric locks and automatic doors
• New access control installations and retrofits
• Remote facilities and managed buildings
• High-security and unmanned sites
Key features include:
• Automatic, remote and local reset
• Lift-up activation guard
• LED status indication and activation sounder
• Adjustable brightness and volume
• Case and wall tamper detection
• Local override switch
• Dual SPDT relay outputs
• Standard footprint for simple retrofit
With visual and audible feedback, a lift-up activation guard, tamper protection, and standard mounting footprints, the EBG is an ideal solution for both new installations and retrofits. Its dual relay outputs enable direct interface with electric locks, auto doors, and access control systems, while optional override functions support service and maintenance workflows.
The EBG enhances both security and efficiency in access-controlled environments, offering a modern, self-managed upgrade to traditional break glass units.

- Automatic, Remote & Local Reset Options: Reset can occur via lock power cycle, remote control voltage, or local button. All reset methods can be combined for added flexibility.
- Integrated Audible & Visual Feedback: Activation triggers an LED status indicator and internal sounder, both with adjustable brightness and volume.
- Tamper Protection & Lift-Up Guard: Case and wall tamper switches plus a hinged guard protect against accidental or unauthorised activation.
- Dual Relay Outputs: Includes two 3A SPDT (Form C) relays for seamless integration with electric locks, auto doors, and control panels.
- Universal Mounting Compatibility: Compatible with standard square break glass footprints. Optional surface-mount back box available for hardwired installations.
- Low Power Operation with Fail-Safe Design: Operates at 12V or 24VDC and defaults to lock release on power failure, ensuring life safety compliance.
