Fire siren in New Zealand

I'm not sure what it is. It winds up a little fast for a Carter.

I remember posting a similar one a while ago. I'd put my money on a Grifco, though as that station looks new.

It is a small one. You can see it right behind the flags. My guess is Grifco or Klaxon.

Pretty much any 10/12 port siren running on 50Hz power will sound very similar, be it a Gents of Leicester Tangent siren, a Castle Castings, a Sirenco, a Grifco, a Kheraj, a Klaxon or something else.

Also, that particular Klaxon CS8 has a faulty solenoid operated coding shutter. You can hear a CS8 with two fully operational solenoid operated coding shutters in either my video or this video.

Jerry.
