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.

That Decot deserves a thorough restoration
It needs a whole ass overhaul
It was successfully overhauled last spring
Needs to be overpowered to be able to run😂😂
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!
That's great news! So glad to see it still going, thanks for the info Jerry!
the lenjind who brot a gas powerd mobil direto to sirencon 2023
@@ithken I also brought my Model 12 as well. Hope to be back with the MD this year again
did you fix it yet i herd the rotor was hitine the stater
It was just a little bit corroded. It buffed itself out after that first run and has been fine ever since
This was a rollercoaster of emotions
how tf you 8 months late to a video with you in it 😭
I really hope someone restores this thing!
Held up for at least 50 years (idk when this was installed) that's pretty good but now age is catching up to the ol decot.
oh it's way over 50, probably creeping up to a century now
Damn, that thing is dying. When I saw this 5 years ago, it was looking good!
birthday party cone on top of it
I’ve probably passed one of these and not even known it as it looks like the cell phone tower thing at the top
makes since that these old but gold sirens would be dying
dying deck oat fire/tornado test
it’s not a fire siren
Good to know.
not too surprised. Those sirens are very old.
This was repaired last spring with new bearings. It's back to normal now
deck oat dying :sob:
i would imagine its motor is finally giving out and seizing up
it wouldn’t seize up more likely burn out
strange with the pitch changes.. that aint healthy at all.. hope its repaired/restored or something soon
It was repaired last spring
I think it's a radio problem, it may possibly have a faulty receiver. Possibly water damage.
No, the radio system was being worked on that day. The test at the end is a manual test through the phone lines.
@@Midwest_SirensYouch! Does the motor have brushes by chance?
@@awesomegaming8617 no, it's an induction motor
@@JerryWick Alright thanks! It might be the bearings then. That's what it sounds like anyway unless the windings are barbecuing.
@awesomegaming8617 the bearings were successfully replaced last spring
And the bad news is this is the last 9/12 Port ratio decot siren in existence
it’s 10/16 port
@@pennsylvaniahvacproduction6658 what it doesn't even sound like a 10/16 port and everybody knows it's a 9/12 port ratio otherwise it would sound differently
@@VonnaWasser it’s clearly a 10/16 because Decot never came in 9/12 port
If it was a 10/16 port ratio decot it would sound high pitch like the Princeton decot siren
@@VonnaWasser this is 3000 rpm clintonville is 3200 rpm Princeton is 3450 rpm because it has a different motor… so this is 10/16
Holy crap
they should call it a DEW not Decot
Hope they can fix it
I think most likely it will be replaced with another siren (Or replaced now)
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!!
those motors are prone to die
@@NS-Sirens The motors that are in the Decots?
the one at the bottom
@@NS-Sirens Aahh, I see. I think Decot used different motors for the siren too. I think they're all induction including this one, but I don't know. I'm guessing the bearings are just going in it, or the windings are short. Otherwise, beats me.
@@awesomegaming8617 they use different sizes and are prone to dying because they wert manufactured that well (the motors)
Use both hands bro
"shit"
0:56
Dangggg this needs help
I think they fixed it
Yes it had new bearings installed this past spring
I can see the moter is showing its age in this video nice video tho still.
New bearings were installed last spring. It's all good now
isn't it 3 phase? cuz thats a crazy malfunction
yeah it's three phase... what does that have to do with it being sick?
it isnt its power its most likely a brush issue or the motor itself is dying
@@Midwest_Sirens is this siren still there by any chance?
@@Midwest_Sirens 3 phase motors Don't die very easily, and usually don't have pitch fluctuations.
@@Sipex6484 well this one does lmao 🤷♂️🤷♂️🤷♂️
Siren is dead T^T
No, it was repaired with brand new bearings. Good to go for another half century at least
