MSW5GLMCT

Alarms, Buzzers, And Sirens Overview

The MSW5GLMCT is a through-hole piezoelectric buzzer from the MSW series by Mallory Sonalert Products Inc. It operates on a DC input voltage range of 3 to 5.5V and draws a supply current of 400mA. The device produces a sound pressure level of 90dB at 5.5V measured at a distance of 10cm. Its operating frequency spans from 150Hz to 4kHz, allowing for variable tone generation. The component features an octagonal shape with dimensions of 23mm in length and width, and a maximum height of 13mm. It utilizes solder pin termination for PCB mounting.

Alarms, Buzzers, And Sirens Feature Summary

• Internally driven indicator buzzer capable of generating variable tones across a wide frequency spectrum
• High acoustic output designed for clear audible alerts in various environments
• Robust construction suitable for industrial and commercial applications requiring reliable audio signaling

Alarms, Buzzers, And Sirens Applications

• Industrial machinery status indicators
• Commercial equipment alarm systems
• General purpose audible warning devices

Alarms, Buzzers, And Sirens Procurement Notes

Verify the specific electrical requirements against your system design, particularly the 400mA current draw which is higher than standard low-power buzzers. Confirm that the 3-5.5VDC input range aligns with your power supply rails. Ensure the PCB layout accommodates the 23x23mm footprint and 13mm height clearance. Check for any specific environmental certifications required for your deployment zone.

Alarms, Buzzers, And Sirens Selection Notes

Select this model when a high-volume, internally driven solution with variable tone capability is needed. It is distinct from fixed-frequency piezo buzzers due to its broad frequency range. Consider the physical size constraints as it requires a 23mm square area. The through-hole solder pin termination dictates the assembly method compared to surface-mount alternatives.
