Finally this beast of a siren is ready for installation. Currently the installation is scheduled for Tuesday morning. Below are some pictures of the siren in it's final assembly, with everything polished up and a model 2 next to it for a size reference.

This siren has a new 15 horsepower three phase Baldor motor, and a matching stator. Both came from Werden Electric.



I am currently uploading several informative videos about the siren and the new control panel I built for it. I will post them here once they are finished.

Well, the P-15 is up in the air, but we didn't get to finish wiring it up today. Everything was going to plan until some problems with the line truck cost us 6 hours and delayed everything. Adding to the problem was the hardest ground I have ever seen which was a pain to auger in and a nightmare to trench by hand. We are going to finish it up tomorrow and run it in 3 minutes of attack and alert if the weather permits.

thats good to see that this p 15 is back in service. where did you get the asc logos, civil defense and warning decals from? where did you install it?

[holler]

The siren is installed in Milan, GA. The ASC logos came from ASC, along with the warning stickers. The CD logo came from another boardmember.
