PB-1408-2

Overview

The PB-1408-2 is a non-washable, externally driven piezoelectric buzzer manufactured by Soberton Inc. It operates on a rated voltage of 12V DC with a functional range of 3 to 16V. The device features a 13.8mm diameter and a maximum seated height of 7.50mm. It produces a sound pressure level of 85dB at 12V measured from 10cm distance. The resonant frequency is 4.8kHz, and it draws a current of 10mA.

Feature Summary

• Externally driven piezoelectric transducer technology
• Through-hole mounting configuration for PCB integration
• Non-washable construction suitable for standard assembly processes

Applications

• General purpose audio indication in electronic equipment
• Alarm systems requiring audible alerts
• Status signaling in industrial control panels

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix designation to confirm electrical ratings and physical dimensions against official datasheets. Confirm RoHS compliance status and lead times with authorized distributors. Ensure the non-washable rating aligns with your manufacturing process requirements before finalizing orders.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a compact, through-hole piezo buzzer is required for 12V systems. Consider the 85dB output and 4.8kHz frequency for audibility needs. Verify that the non-washable characteristic does not conflict with downstream cleaning procedures in the assembly line.

Part Context

This part belongs to the PB series of piezoelectric buzzers from Soberton Inc. The series offers various voltage and size options. The PB-1408-2 specifically denotes the 12V rated variant within the 13.8mm diameter form factor family.

Replacement Considerations

Check for direct pin-compatible substitutes within the same series or manufacturer. Verify that alternative parts match the 12V rating, 85dB SPL, and 4.8kHz frequency specifications to ensure functional equivalence.
