Hey everyone.
New to the board, forgive me if this has been discussed already.
And also forgive me as my knowledge of these sirens is sub par.
I have an old Federal Signal Fire whistle/air raid siren that has been sitting on my property since since around the late 40's or early 50's and has been turned off since the early 90's.
I'm looking into possibly getting it working again.
Here's what i got off of it.
The silver box that has a reset button:
Type: "RC5-1"
M.P.: "5"
S.N.: "BF1101"
Volts: 220
Cycle: 50
Phase: 1
Amps: 56
The rusted box that has "Test" and "Alarm" buttons:
Model: "Z220"
S.N.: 8L30C68
All I can make out from the siren on top is:
"C 3 1/2"
And the pics....
i don't have a shot of the siren itself but this is pretty close to it...
From another forum i was told that it is a Federal Electric "C 3 1/2" siren.
So with that said...what are the steps i should take to get it up and running again?
I believe they disconnected it just by cutting the power wire...however I'm not sure.
Thanks for your help!!!
