TXC-86-515-Q

Overview

The TXC-86-515-Q is a piezoelectric alarm from the Turbo Series by Floyd Bell Inc. It features an internally driven indicator circuit and accepts DC input within a voltage range of 5 to 15 VDC. The unit provides extra loud continuous audible alerts, rated at 103 dBA at 2 feet. It utilizes a 33.02mm panel mount design with a seated height of approximately 29.97mm.

Feature Summary

• Extra loud continuous piezoelectric alert generation
• Internally driven indicator circuit for simplified integration
• Compact miniature form factor with panel mounting capability

Applications

• Industrial machinery status indication
• Security system audible alerts
• Equipment fault signaling

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix against official datasheets to confirm electrical ratings and physical configuration. Ensure the selected variant matches the required voltage range and mounting style for the target application. Confirm compliance requirements such as RoHS status prior to final procurement decisions.

Selection Notes

Select this component when high-intensity audible notification is required in space-constrained environments. The internal drive circuit simplifies board layout compared to externally driven buzzers. Verify that the operating voltage aligns with the 5-15 VDC specification to ensure proper functionality and longevity of the piezoelectric element.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Turbo Series, characterized by high sound pressure levels relative to its compact size. It serves as a direct replacement for standard piezo alarms requiring louder output without increasing footprint. The series is designed for industrial durability and clear audible distinction in noisy environments.

Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with TMC-86-530-Q or TXS-86-515-Q if voltage ranges or specific mounting variations are needed. Ensure substitute parts maintain the same internally driven architecture and acoustic output specifications for equivalent performance.
