TXW-V86-515-W(F)

Overview

The TXW-V86-515-W(F) is a panel mount chime alarm manufactured by Floyd Bell Inc. It belongs to the AudioLarm II series and features an internally driven piezo driver circuit. The device operates on a DC 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 5V measured from a distance of 61 cm. The unit has a top port location and utilizes wire leads for termination. Physical dimensions include a diameter of 35.81 mm and a maximum installation height of 37.59 mm. It is rated IP68 for dust tightness and waterproofing, with an operating temperature range of -20°C to 65°C.

Feature Summary

• Internally driven piezo technology for direct DC operation
• IP68 rated enclosure providing dust tight and waterproof protection
• Panel mount design with top port location and wire lead termination

Applications

• Industrial equipment status indication
• Appliance audio signaling
• Control panel alarm systems

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix (F) against the manufacturer's latest documentation to confirm compliance details and material specifications. Ensure the required operating voltage aligns with the 5-25V DC range specified for this model. Confirm that the IP68 rating meets the environmental requirements of the intended installation site. Cross-reference the physical dimensions with the mounting hole specifications to ensure proper fitment within the assembly.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a self-contained, internally driven audible indicator is required for harsh environments. The IP68 rating makes it suitable for applications exposed to water or dust. Consider the 70 dB SPL output relative to the ambient noise levels of the application. Verify that the available space accommodates the 35.81 mm diameter and 37.59 mm height constraints. Ensure the control circuit can supply the necessary 5-25 mA current draw.

Part Context

This part is part of the AudioLarm II series from Floyd Bell Inc., designed for reliable audible signaling in various electronic assemblies. The series typically includes multiple variants differing in voltage, frequency, and acoustic output. This specific model emphasizes durability through its IP68 rating and ease of integration via wire leads. It serves as a standard solution for panel-mounted alert systems where environmental sealing is critical.

Replacement Considerations

Check for other models within the AudioLarm II series that match the required voltage and SPL. Verify if alternative manufacturers offer IP68 rated piezo chimes with compatible mounting dimensions and electrical characteristics.
