TXW-V86-515-Q(F)

Overview

The TXW-V86-515-Q(F) is a piezoelectric panel mount chime alarm manufactured by Floyd Bell Inc. It operates on a DC voltage range of 5 to 25 volts with an internally driven indicator circuit. The device produces a sound pressure level of 70 dB at 5V measured from a distance of 61 cm, operating at a frequency of 2.9 kHz. Power consumption ranges between 5 and 25 mA within the specified voltage limits. The unit features wire leads for termination and has a top port location. Physical dimensions include a diameter of 35.81 mm and a maximum installation height of 37.59 mm. It is rated for operation between -20°C and 65°C and holds UL and UR approval agencies.

Feature Summary

• Piezoelectric technology for reliable acoustic signal generation
• Internally driven indicator circuit for simplified integration
• IP68 rating providing dust tight and waterproof protection
• Panel mount design with wire lead termination

Applications

• Industrial equipment status indication
• Appliance chime signaling
• Security system alerts
• Control panel audio feedback

Procurement Notes

Verify that the specific ordering suffix matches the required configuration for your application. Confirm that the electrical parameters align with your system's power supply capabilities. Ensure the physical mounting dimensions fit within the designated enclosure space. Check for any specific environmental requirements regarding the operating temperature range. Validate that the IP68 rating meets the necessary ingress protection standards for the intended installation environment.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a durable, waterproof chime solution is required for panel mounting applications. Consider the 70 dB output level for environments where moderate volume is sufficient. The wide voltage input range allows flexibility in power supply design. Verify that the 2.9 kHz frequency is appropriate for the desired auditory alert tone. Ensure the wire lead termination method suits the assembly process.
