14806

Overview

The Moflash Signalling Ltd 14806 is a magnetic buzzer designed for industrial and marine acoustic signaling applications. It operates on 115V or 230V AC/DC supplies, drawing 0.4A at 115V and 0.2A at 230V. The device produces a low-frequency sound of approximately 420Hz with an output level of 110dB. Constructed from mild steel with a powder-coated finish, it features base mounting for secure installation in demanding environments.

Feature Summary

• Electromagnetic operation utilizing an electromagnet to vibrate a diaphragm for sound generation
• Low-frequency acoustic output suitable for high-noise industrial settings
• Robust mild steel construction with powder coating for environmental resistance

Applications

• General industrial alarm systems
• Marine vessel signaling
• Mining equipment warnings
• Automotive backup alarms such as forklifts

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific voltage requirement (115V vs 230V) against the system supply before procurement, as current draw varies accordingly. Confirm that the base mount configuration matches the installation surface. Ensure the mild steel housing finish is compatible with the operating environment's corrosion requirements. Cross-reference the catalog number 14806 with official Moflash documentation to confirm availability of any optional rear boxes for weather protection if needed.

Selection Notes

Select this model when a high-decibel, low-frequency audible warning is required for heavy-duty environments. It is appropriate for applications needing reliable electromagnetic actuation without electronic complexity. Consider the physical dimensions and base mounting constraints during integration. Evaluate the need for optional weather protection accessories if the unit will be exposed to outdoor elements.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Moflash AE95 series of industrial buzzers, which are known for providing single-stage alerts through mechanical vibration. The series includes variants for different voltage ranges, with the 14806 specifically addressing higher voltage AC/DC networks. Moflash Signalling Ltd manufactures these devices in Birmingham, UK, serving global markets with robust signaling solutions.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes within the same series include part numbers 14802 and 14807, which offer similar functionality but operate at lower voltages (24V/48V). When replacing, ensure the new unit matches the required voltage and current specifications of the existing circuit. Verify that the physical mounting footprint remains compatible with the original installation.
