Gentex GX93-W — GX93 Series low-current mini-horn, white faceplate, Gentex part number 904-1277-002.
A mini-horn is a single-gang audible-only appliance for places where a full-size horn is too large or too loud, typically hotel, dormitory and apartment sleeping rooms. One GX93 runs from a 12 or a 24 volt circuit with no change of model, and a jumper picks the tone pattern.
- Jumper-selectable temporal 3 or continuous tone, horn frequency 3100 Hz
- Operates at 12 VDC (8 to 17.5 V) or 24 VDC (16 to 33 V), set by the input voltage
- Draws 18 mA on temporal 3 and 21.1 mA continuous at 24 VDC
- Minimum SPL at 10 ft per ANSI/UL 464: 78 dBA temporal 3, 83 dBA continuous at 24 VDC
- 4.48" high × 2.84" wide × 0.5" deep; terminals take 12 to 18 AWG, polarized
- ANSI/UL 464 and CAN/ULC S525 certified, CSFM 7135-0569:126; 32° to 120°F, indoor only
Gentex builds four faceplate variants, separated only by part number: GX93-R red (904-1276-002), GX93-PW plain white (904-1268-002) and GX93-PR plain red (904-1267-002). The series is not recommended on coded or pulsing circuits.

FAQ
Does the GX93-W work on 12 V and 24 V circuits?
Yes. A single unit operates at 12 VDC (8 to 17.5 V) or 24 VDC (16 to 33 V), set by the input voltage, and it works with filtered or unfiltered power.
Which tones are available?
A jumper selects temporal 3 or continuous tone. The horn frequency is 3100 Hz.
Can it sync with other Gentex appliances?
Yes. The GX93 can be used on the same sync circuit as other Gentex signals and synchronizes with the Gentex AVSM Series control module.
What is the current draw?
At 24 VDC it draws 18 mA on temporal 3 and 21.1 mA continuous; at 12 VDC it draws 13 mA temporal 3 and 7 mA continuous.
