Grifco Sydney unknown model.

Hi
This siren was removed from the Belair National Park, South Australia, Rangers hut in I believe 1970. It functioned as a fire siren. It’s in good working condition and runs at full noise, though sadly has a crack in the motor mount that will be repaired shortly.
Single phase 240v
6 air outlet holes in the base with horizontal blades
Cast aluminium
Grifco Sydney AU

I’m hoping someone can confirm the model
Thanks.

That's a Grifco 777.
