MSS5TMHMP

Alarms, Buzzers, And Sirens Overview

The MSS5TMHMP is a magnetic buzzer from the MSS series by Mallory Sonalert Products Inc. It features a 23x23mm through-hole package with PC pins. Rated for 5V DC input, it operates at a frequency of 2.075kHz. The device draws between 46 and 150mA and produces a sound pressure level of 85dB at 5V measured at 10cm. It includes internal drive circuitry and is certified to UL and cUL standards.

Alarms, Buzzers, And Sirens Feature Summary

• Internal drive circuitry enables direct connection to power sources without external oscillators.
• Magnetic transducer technology provides consistent acoustic output within the specified voltage range.
• Through-hole mounting with PC pins facilitates secure board integration.
• Certified for safety compliance under UL and cUL standards.

Alarms, Buzzers, And Sirens Applications

Alarms, Buzzers, And Sirens Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'TMHMP' against official Mallory documentation to confirm exact acoustic and electrical characteristics, as suffixes often denote specific tone or packaging variations. Ensure the required operating voltage matches the 5V rating. Confirm that the through-hole form factor aligns with the target PCB layout constraints.

Alarms, Buzzers, And Sirens Selection Notes

Select this component when a reliable, internally driven magnetic buzzer is required for 5V systems. The 85dB output is suitable for general alarm applications. Consider the 23x23mm footprint for space-constrained designs. Verify that the 46-150mA current draw is supported by the host power supply.

Alarms, Buzzers, And Sirens Part Context

This part belongs to the MSS series of medical-grade and general-purpose alarms. The series is known for IEC60601-1-8 compliance in many variants. Mallory Sonalert manufactures these devices in Indiana, USA, leveraging over a century of electronic component expertise.

Alarms, Buzzers, And Sirens Replacement Considerations

Check for other MSS5 suffixes (e.g., MSS5C, MSS5GH) if different tones are acceptable. Direct substitutes may include other 5V magnetic buzzers with similar SPL and current ratings, but verify pinout and acoustic performance carefully.
