Can Anyone Identify This Siren?

Tue Sep 18, 2018 7:59 pm

I just bought this siren from a swap meet. The ID plate is painted over. Anyone know what it is?

Well, I've never seen a thing like that before! Judging my the size and the mounting plate I'd say it's vehicular, but otherwise I have nothing...

That looks some like an odd siren, you couldn't see where's the choppers.

Probably those at "Post Your Mystery Sirens" thread could help. I can say that's a dedicated thread on asking the most general question; What is this siren?"

PS : Hopefully those at PYMS can accept vehicular & indoor siren entries as well.

Looks almost like a Federal Signal Q.

I removed the housing. There's no ID plate on the siren motor. I also removed the ID plate to see if there's any stamping that can be read on the other side but I couldn't make it out.

To get anything sanding the paint off the ID tag on the outside will probably be your only option.

I'm going to leave it original, the way I found it so scrapping the ID plate is a no go. It was originally red and painted over with yellow. I'm sure someone here will know what it is.
