Transducers USA has announced the expansion of its line of TRIP-80 alarm series of high output audio alerts in a small package: 26mm dia. x 22mm high. The updated TRIP-80 series generates a sound pressure level of a minimum of 97dB @ 30cm with a continuous or fast pulsing audio output.

These loud indicators are suitable for industrial control, automation and a myriad of alarm applications; particularly if size and sound output are prime considerations. The pulsed version gives added versatility where alarm identification is needed within a given area. These alerts are well suited for applications where ambient noise may interfere with other alarm outputs at lower sound pressures.

The TRIP-80 alarm series from Transducers USA feature ceramic piezo indicators and are available in PC pin or wire termination (TRIP-80L-16G-ME) configurations.

The TRIP-8012LA unit includes a snap-on connector that will mate with automotive style connectors – a solution for automotive, off-road, marine, golf cart, snowmobile, emergency equipment and other mobile applications. This unit meets IP67 standards.

The TRIP-80 series of alarms operate at 6 – 18 VDC at 25 Ma max. Resonant frequency is 2,700 +/-500Hz. Other product specifications include:
