Mountings and More
The mounting of the audible alarm device is usually not a problem. Panel mount devices are
available with various types of terminal or wire terminations. All of the smaller devices are mounted on PCB's. One consideration that is frequently overlooked when mounting audible alarm devices, especially the smaller PCB ones, is that the sound can be attenuated by surrounding devices. Audible alarms are tuned devices and large mass devices mounted close to them can change the audible characteristics of the device.
