TXW-V86-515-S(F)

Overview

The TXW-V86-515-S(F) is a panel mount chime alarm manufactured by Floyd Bell Inc, belonging to the Audiolarm II series. It utilizes piezo technology for sound generation and features an internally driven indicator circuit. The device operates on a DC input voltage range of 5 to 25 volts with a power consumption current between 5 and 25 mA. It produces a sound pressure level of 70 dB at 5 volts measured at a distance of 61 cm, with a frequency of 2.9 kHz. The unit has a diameter of 35.81 mm (1.410 inches) and a maximum installation height of 37.59 mm (1.480 inches). It includes wire leads for termination and offers IP68 protection against dust and water ingress. The operating temperature range is -20°C to 65°C, and it holds UL and UR approval agency ratings.

Feature Summary

• Piezo-based sound generation with internal driver circuitry
• IP68 rated enclosure providing dust tight and waterproof protection
• Panel mount design with top-positioned port and wire lead termination

Applications

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

Procurement Notes

Verify that the specific suffix (F) matches the required lead-free compliance standards for your assembly process. Confirm that the 5V to 25V DC operating range aligns with your system's available supply voltage. Ensure the physical dimensions fit within the designated panel cutout and depth constraints. Check that the UL/UR listing satisfies the safety certification requirements of your target market or end product.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a durable, waterproof audible indicator is required for harsh environments. The wide voltage tolerance allows flexibility in power supply design without needing complex regulation. The high SPL rating ensures audibility in moderately noisy settings. Consider the wire lead termination method if PCB mounting is not preferred for the final assembly configuration.
