Velvac 697297 back-up alarm

The Velvac 697297 is a compact back-up alarm designed for vehicles and mobile equipment that need an audible warning when reversing. It operates on 12 to 24V DC systems and draws 300mA, making it compatible with a wide range of electrical architectures.

97 dB output for clear warning

At 97 dB the alarm provides a loud, distinct tone that cuts through ambient noise on job sites, loading docks and busy yards. The fixed sound level offers no adjustment, so installers should verify that the volume meets local regulations without exceeding community noise limits.

Glass-filled nylon housing with center mount

The black glass/nylon housing resists corrosion, vibration and temperature extremes common in outdoor service. A center mounting point allows straightforward bolt-on installation on flat surfaces, while the 2-3/4 inch height keeps the profile low enough to avoid snagging on low-hanging obstacles.

Questions about this item

Will the 97 dB alarm draw too much current from a 12 V truck circuit?

The unit draws 300 mA at 12 to 24 V DC, a low load for standard vehicle electrical systems.

How can I confirm the alarm meets SAE J944 after installation?

With the vehicle in reverse, the alarm should emit a steady 97 dB tone; that output level is the audible sign of SAE J944 compliance.

Does the 697297 include mounting hardware or just the alarm housing?

Only the glass/nylon alarm housing is supplied; mounting bolts or brackets must be sourced separately.
