Eaton MEDC DB1 Metallic Sounder Range

Deliver loud, dependable audible alarms where safety and compliance matter most. The Eaton MEDC DB1 Metallic Sounder Range is a flameproof, explosionproof sounder/horn engineered for the harsh conditions of oil, gas and petrochemical facilities. With 24V DC operation and a high weatherproof rating, the DB1 series provides consistent performance offshore and onshore and integrates easily with security, surveillance and monitoring systems via wired connectivity.

New electronic circuitry on the DB1P and DB1HP models offers two selectable tones — switchable by reversing supply polarity or adding a second voltage source — so you can assign distinct alerts for evacuation, fire or process alarms. The DB1HP high-output variant is tailored for noisy environments, ensuring alarms are heard across large plants and busy production areas. Finished in high-visibility red and built for durability, this sounder reduces false alarms and minimizes maintenance downtime.

Ideal for facility managers, integrators and safety engineers, the Eaton MEDC DB1 delivers robust, compliant audible notification for critical alarm and monitoring applications. Specify the DB1 for your next hazardous-area alarm project or contact us for integration support.
