AI-3232-TWF-LW160

Overview

The AI-3232-TWF-LW160 is a piezoelectric audio indicator manufactured by PUI Audio. It operates at a rated voltage of 12 VDC with a current rating of 80 mA. The device produces a continuous tone at a resonant frequency of 3.2 kHz and achieves a sound pressure level of 116 dBA. It features flange wire leads for panel mounting, with a diameter of 31.5 mm and a height of 19.8 mm. The unit carries an IP65 rating for environmental protection.

Feature Summary

• Internally driven transducer circuitry for simplified integration
• High-output acoustic performance suitable for noisy environments
• Robust IP65 sealed construction for dust and water resistance
• Panel mount design with integrated flange and wire leads

Applications

• Industrial control panels requiring high-volume audible alerts
• Medical equipment status indicators needing reliable acoustic feedback
• Security systems demanding weather-resistant alarm components
• Consumer electronics interfaces requiring distinct tone generation

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific lead time and minimum order quantities directly with authorized distributors or the manufacturer before placing orders. Confirm that the IP65 rating meets your environmental requirements. Ensure the 12 VDC supply matches your system design. Check for RoHS compliance documentation if required by your project specifications.

Selection Notes

Select this component when high sound pressure levels are critical for audibility in loud settings. The internally driven nature simplifies driver circuit design compared to passive buzzers. Consider the physical dimensions and panel cutout requirements during mechanical design. Verify that the wire lead termination style fits your assembly process constraints.
