Procurement Notes

Verify the exact suffix 'THCFPPC' against the manufacturer's current datasheet to confirm the specific tone code and packaging type. Ensure the design-in process accounts for the 9-12VDC operating range and the required 100dB acoustic performance specifications for the target enclosure environment.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a high-decibel, surface-mount audible indicator is required for medical or industrial environments. The specific 'TEMP-ENERGY' tone designation must match the system's alarm logic requirements. Confirm that the PCB layout supports the specified SMT footprint and that the driving circuitry can supply the necessary voltage within the 9-12VDC range.

Part Context

This part belongs to the SBT series of medical-grade audio indicators from Mallory Sonalert. The series includes various voltage ratings and tone configurations tailored for compliance with IEC 60601-1-8 standards for medical electrical equipment alarms. The SMT variant facilitates compact board designs.

FAQ

What does the 'THCFPPC' suffix indicate?

The suffix denotes the specific alarm tone (Temperature-Energy), the acoustic output level (100dB), and the surface-mount tape-and-reel packaging configuration.

Is this component suitable for direct drive from a microcontroller?

No, it requires a 9-12VDC supply. A driver circuit or transistor switch is necessary to interface with standard low-voltage logic outputs.
