Application
Signal horns are a mandatory part of the safety equipment of a vehicle. A particularly perceptible sound is necessary in order to be able to warn other road users optimally in dangerous situations. Our signal horns offer you a high level of functional reliability.
Design and function
Signal horns are powered by the battery current pulse, which is normally transmitted via a voltage pulse controlled by the steering wheel. The current signal is sent to a relay, on which the the entire control current is transmitted so that no voltage dips occur.
The current signal is sent to a relay, on which the the entire control current is transmitted so that no voltage dips occur. As the signal horn is powered by the electric current, a magnetic field is generated which attracts a metal core (shaft) together with a steel membrane. This magnetism causes vibrations that are converted by varying resonances to produce low or high tones.
