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.

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.
