Sound for greater safety: Signal horns are required in vehicles by law so that other road users can be made aware of dangerous situations in a clearly audible manner. With its full sound, the HELLA M28 horn is particularly suitable for commercial vehicles. It is a durable, compact, lightweight horn. Its high sound pressure level generates maximum attention.
The M28 horn is operated by the battery current or a control current coming from the steering wheel. This is passed through a relay to generate a voltage dip-free control current. The control current activates the electromagnet of the signal horn. This in turn attracts a metal core or armature, and above it, the steel diaphragm of the horn. The sound is produced by interrupting the power supply when the diaphragm is tightened and the armature and diaphragm return to the original position.
The HELLA M28 horn is available with a low (340 Hz) and a high (415 Hz) tone and produces a sound pressure level of up to 118 dB(A) at 2 m distance.
