MSS5XMHSP

Alarms, Buzzers, And Sirens Overview

The MSS5XMHSP is a medical-grade piezoelectric buzzer from the MSS series by Mallory Sonalert. It operates on a 4-6 VDC supply with a nominal voltage of 5 VDC and draws 400 mA. The device produces a sound pressure level of 90 dBA at a frequency of 4 kHz. Designed for oxygen-safe environments, it features multiple tones and solder pin termination for board mount installation. Its compact dimensions are 23 mm x 23 mm x 13.5 mm.

Alarms, Buzzers, And Sirens Feature Summary

• Compliant with IEC 60601-1-8 medical alarm standards
• Oxygen-safe construction suitable for critical care environments
• Multi-tone audio output capability
• Low profile board mount design

Alarms, Buzzers, And Sirens Applications

• Cardiac monitoring alarms
• Ventilator failure alerts
• General medical device indicators
• Patient monitoring systems

Alarms, Buzzers, And Sirens Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'SP' against official Mallory documentation to confirm oxygen-safe certification status. Ensure the operating voltage range aligns with system power rails. Confirm RoHS compliance requirements for the target market. Validate that the 400 mA current draw fits within the PCB trace capacity and power budget constraints.

Alarms, Buzzers, And Sirens Selection Notes

Select this component when medical regulatory compliance is mandatory. The MSS series offers integrated circuitry for direct drive. Compare against the MSS5GH for general use or MSS5C for cardiac-specific tone profiles if multi-tone functionality is not required. Consider physical size constraints given the 23 mm diameter footprint.

Alarms, Buzzers, And Sirens Part Context

Part of the MSS family of surface-mount medical transducers. This series provides high-intensity audible alerts in a compact form factor. Mallory Sonalert specializes in compliant audio solutions for healthcare equipment requiring reliable warning signals.

Alarms, Buzzers, And Sirens Replacement Considerations

MSS5GH: General purpose variant without explicit oxygen-safe designation. MSS5C: Cardiac-specific tone profile. Verify electrical compatibility and mounting hole alignment before substitution.
