PS-953Q

Overview

The PS-953Q is a piezoelectric industrial buzzer manufactured by Mallory Sonalert Products Inc. It operates on a 12 VDC supply with a current draw of 150 mA. The device produces a continuous tone at frequencies ranging from 1500 Hz to 3500 Hz, achieving a sound pressure level of 105 dBA. It features wire lead termination and is designed for panel or bracket mounting applications.

Feature Summary

• Piezoelectric transducer technology for reliable audio signaling
• High-intensity 105 dBA output for clear audible alerts
• Continuous tone generation within specified frequency range

Applications

• Industrial machinery status indication
• Safety alarm systems requiring high volume
• Control panel auditory feedback

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific operating voltage and frequency requirements against the 12 VDC specification and 1500-3500 Hz range before integration. Confirm that the 150 mA current draw is supported by the power supply circuitry. Ensure mechanical mounting provisions align with the wire lead termination style and physical dimensions provided in the official datasheet.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a high-decibel continuous alert is required for industrial environments. The 12 VDC rating suits standard low-voltage control circuits. Consider the 150 mA consumption for power budgeting. Verify compatibility with existing mounting structures due to the specific form factor and wire lead configuration.

Part Context
