New Mallory Sonalert Audible Medical Alarms are IEC60601-1-8 Approved for Drug Dispensers, Defibrillators, Dialysis & More
February 21, 2017 - New Yorker Electronics has supplemented its medical electronics device offerings with the new release of Mallory Sonalert Audible Medical Alarms in both speaker and piezoelectric transducer types. The Audible Medical Alarms from Mallory Sonalert’s broad product line are used in almost every type of medical application from consumer hand held meters to infant monitors. The SBS speaker series offers more sound level than the smaller MSS speaker series making it suitable for louder medical environments such as operating rooms.

Both MSS and SBS are well-suited for use in handheld devices as they do not pull as much current. The SBT piezo series is a bit louder and offers ultra-low current. This makes it very useful as a battery or for back-up power applications that run on super-caps. All three series are available with circuitry and have melody options to let medical equipment designers choose which sounds they need for their application.
Liability has generated an increased interest in this
market. Additionally, as medical technology advances, more types of warnings are
needed for more types of equipment.
In Europe, adhering to the standards of IEC60601-1-8 is mandatory but it
is voluntary in the USA. Mallory Sonalert’s Medical Alarms are made in the USA
and meet these stringent criteria and more to earn the IEC60601-1-8 specification.
To earn this accreditation, all equipment must use a
high, medium or low priority warning sound depending on the condition of the
patient, they must have an audible sound fundamental frequency less than 1000Hz
and must have at least four harmonic frequencies within ± 15dB of the
fundamental frequency.
These highly reliable devices handle the monitoring of cardiac
signs, drug and fluid delivery, equipment failure, oxygen delivery and more and
are used by all major medical electronic companies for hospital beds, drug
dispensers, defibrillators, dialysis, MRIs, surgery equipment, incubators and other
essential health monitoring devices.
The RoHS-compliant, UL-certified medical alarms are extremely
lightweight (6g to 16g) yet range in typical loudness from 85dBa to 95dBa @
10cm with the MSS and SBT series and 95dBa to 105dBa @ 10cm with the SBS
series.
