SBT12EHPC

Overview

The SBT12EHPC is a piezoelectric buzzer from Mallory Sonalert Products Inc., designed for industrial and medical applications. It operates within an IEC voltage range of 9 to 12 VDC. The device produces a sound pressure level between 85 and 95 dB at a distance of 10 cm. Its operating frequency spans from 150 Hz to 4000 Hz. The unit features a round shape with a diameter of 44.45 mm and a height of 15 mm. It utilizes through-hole mounting and solder termination. The component is cUL Recognized to IEC60601-1-8 AMD1 standards, indicating suitability for medical equipment supply failure melody alerts.

Feature Summary

• Complies with cUL Recognition to IEC60601-1-8 AMD1 standards for medical equipment safety
• Generates high-priority supply failure melody alerts using piezoelectric technology
• Provides consistent acoustic output across a wide frequency range for clear indication

Applications

• Medical equipment supply failure melody alerts
• Industrial audio indicators requiring IEC compliance
• High-priority alarm systems in healthcare environments

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix and revision against the official Mallory Sonalert datasheet to ensure compatibility with IEC60601-1-8 AMD1 requirements. Confirm that the 9-12 VDC operating range matches your system power supply. Check for RoHS compliance documentation if required by your manufacturing standards. Ensure the through-hole package fits your PCB layout constraints.

Selection Notes

Select this component when medical device certification under IEC60601-1-8 is mandatory. Choose the SBT12EHPC for applications requiring a reliable piezoelectric source for critical failure melodies. Consider the 44.45 mm diameter for panel or chassis mounting space availability. Evaluate the 85-95 dB output against ambient noise levels in the intended installation environment.

Part Context

This part belongs to the SBT series of audio indicators from Mallory Sonalert. The series includes various models tailored for different acoustic profiles and mounting styles. The SBT12EHPC specifically addresses the need for certified medical alert tones. It shares the physical dimensions and general piezoelectric construction with other members of the family but differs in electrical characteristics and regulatory approvals.

Replacement Considerations

No direct public substitute part numbers are confirmed for this specific model. Replacement requires verifying equivalent IEC60601-1-8 recognition and matching the 44.45 mm form factor. Consult Mallory Sonalert for updated alternatives if discontinuation occurs.
