MW-09-550-Q

Alarms, Buzzers, And Sirens Overview

The MW-09-550-Q is a piezoelectric tone alarm manufactured by Floyd Bell Inc. It operates on a DC input voltage range of 15V to 36V with a current consumption of 20mA. The device produces a medium loud warble tone at frequencies of 2900 +/- 250 Hz (high) and 2200 +/- 250 Hz (low). Designed for panel mounting, it functions within an ambient temperature range of -20°C to +65°C.

Alarms, Buzzers, And Sirens Feature Summary

• Internally driven piezoelectric design requiring no external oscillator circuitry
• Generates a distinct medium loud warble tone for audible alerting
• Engineered for direct panel mounting installation
