TXW-V86-515-Q(S)

Overview

The TXW-V86-515-Q(S) is an internally driven piezoelectric alarm buzzer from the Floyd Bell Turbo series. It operates on a DC input voltage range of 5 to 15 VDC and produces an extra loud continuous tone at a frequency of 2900 ±250 Hz. The device delivers a sound pressure level of 103 dBA measured at 2 feet (61 cm). It features a panel mount design with an integrated rotary volume control and utilizes quick connect tabs for electrical connection.

Feature Summary

• Internally driven piezoelectric technology for direct DC operation
• Integrated rotary volume control for adjustable output levels
• Extra loud continuous tone generation capability
• Panel mount construction with quick connect tab terminals

Applications

• Industrial equipment status indication
• Security system alarm signaling
• Appliance operational alerts
• Medical device warning indicators

Procurement Notes

Verify that the specific suffix (S) corresponds to the required terminal configuration and mounting style. Confirm the operating voltage range matches the system power supply, as this model is rated for 5-15 VDC. Ensure the physical dimensions accommodate the available panel space. Check for RoHS compliance requirements if applicable to the assembly standards. Validate that the quick connect tab spacing aligns with the PCB or wiring harness design.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a high-decibel audible alert is required without external driving circuitry. The built-in volume control offers flexibility in noisy environments. Consider the 2900 Hz frequency for optimal human hearing sensitivity. Ensure the 5-15 VDC input range suits the available power rails. The panel mount option provides a secure mechanical installation compared to surface mount alternatives.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Floyd Bell Turbo series of piezoelectric alarms. The series is characterized by high sound pressure levels and robust construction. Similar models in the lineup may vary in voltage range, such as 9-48 VDC variants, or frequency specifications. The Turbo series generally emphasizes durability and clear audibility for safety and notification applications across various electronic systems.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other Floyd Bell Turbo series models with compatible voltage ranges and mounting styles. Verify that any replacement maintains the 103 dBA sound level and 2900 Hz frequency. Ensure the internal driver circuitry matches the new part's requirements. Cross-reference terminal types and panel cutout dimensions to guarantee mechanical compatibility.
