    Well Delevan's system turned out to be down but luckily the fire chief manually activated the system through a phone app about 20 minutes after the failure.

    This Model 12 Decot was succesfully overhauled with brand new bearings last Spring by Bill Nagler. This Decot is from the mid 1930s, and is over 90 years old!

  • @awesomegaming8617
    @awesomegaming8617 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Does anyone know what kind of motor it has? Does it have brushes? Is it repulsion, slip ring or universal? Or is it induction/motor with no brushes? If anyone knows further info, that would be greatly appreciated. The motor also may not be the problem with this siren, it could also be a bad relay or something else badly wrong with it. It is old afterall. But this still hurts just to watch!!
