Overview

The Federal Signal PM22C-012-024C-Q is a 22mm panel-mount AV combo unit integrating LED visual and piezoelectric audible signaling in a single compact housing. Designed for 12-24VAC/DC operation, this unit supports seven distinct alert patterns: steady light, continuous tone, synchronized strobe/intermittent tone, dual-flash with dual-tone, triple-flash with triple-tone, and random light/tone combinations. The clear lens ensures maximum visibility while the 360-degree light diffusion enhances alert recognition from any angle. Electrical connection is via M12 4-pin quick-connect (-Q suffix), enabling tool-free installation and maintenance. The unit mounts through a 22mm (0.87") panel cutout and secures with a locking ring. Housed in a self-extinguishing polycarbonate body rated IP65 and Type 3R, the PM22C-012-024C-Q withstands operating temperatures from -22°F to 122°F (-30°C to 50°C). With a maximum operating current of 45mA at 12VDC/24VDC and 90mA/110mA at 12VAC/24VAC respectively, it integrates efficiently into existing control systems. Ideal for manufacturing automation, material handling, public safety, and process control applications, this unit provides clear status indication and hazard alerts in industrial environments. The 50,000-hour LED lifespan ensures long-term reliability, while the compact 1.97" diameter and 3.15" height minimize panel space requirements.
