CAC24-01W120-05-1X

Overview

The Challenge Electronics CAC24-01W120-05-1X is a general-purpose oval speaker chamber assembly with an included enclosure. It features an 8 Ohm impedance and a rated power of 1 W, with a maximum power handling of 1.3 W. The device operates within a frequency range of 960 Hz to 20 kHz and delivers a sound pressure level of 95 dB. Constructed with a PEEK cone and Nd-Fe-B magnet, it offers IPX7 front face ingress protection. Dimensions are 24.0 mm x 15.00 mm x 5.0 mm.

Feature Summary

• Includes integrated enclosure for simplified installation
• IPX7 rated front face for water resistance
• Polyetheretherketone (PEEK) cone material for durability
• Top port acoustic design

Applications

• General purpose audio output devices
• Enclosed electronic assemblies requiring compact speakers
• Applications necessitating basic water resistance on the front face

Procurement Notes

Verify exact dimensional tolerances and termination style against official datasheets before integration. Confirm that the included chamber assembly meets specific acoustic requirements for the target enclosure. Ensure compatibility with driving circuits regarding the 8 Ohm impedance and 1 W power rating. Check for any specific mounting hardware requirements associated with the oval shape.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a pre-assembled speaker unit with an enclosure is required to save space and assembly time. The IPX7 front face rating makes it suitable for environments where moisture exposure is possible but submersion is not expected. Consider the 960 Hz lower frequency limit if deep bass reproduction is critical. The PEEK cone offers thermal stability compared to standard paper cones.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Challenge Electronics CAC series of chamber assemblies. These units combine the transducer and housing into a single component. The series includes various sizes and power ratings. This specific model is designed for applications needing a compact, robust audio solution without separate enclosure fabrication.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes must match the 24.0 mm x 15.00 mm footprint, 8 Ohm impedance, and 1 W rating. Verify that alternative parts also include an enclosure if space constraints apply. Check if the replacement offers similar IPX7 protection or if additional sealing is needed. Compare frequency response curves to ensure acoustic performance alignment.
