Federal Signal 3T22 Siren, Noon Blast, McCausland, IA - 3/26/21

Well I think my mission to over record this thing before it gets replaced has been a success. Almost every year after winter the timer has to be fixed and the siren freezes up in the winter (I have even fixed the timer for the town once) and the fire chief has told me when I told him I could fix the timer (it was going off at 11:57 in 2018 and he saw me taking pics back in 2018 and he asked me to fix it even though I didn't knew shit about RCMs and intermatic timers) and while I was fiddling around with the crappy intermatic timer he said "We have a siren on the other side of town (a whelen) but we have to get one here too" so me and a friend (who has also helped them fix the timers a few times) are going to try and help them out a bit on finding a replacement. anyways, enjoy!

Are they gonna keep the 3T22 for blasts after they install the new siren?

[@windycitysirens]

ah shit another one for the pile
in all seriousness thats pretty cool ngl

[@Midwest_Sirens]

well yeah did u read the description? we are hopefully finding a replacement by the end of this year. this may be my last recording of it depending on how hard it's gonna be for me to find them a good replacement that is cheap

[@windycitysirens]

@@Midwest_Sirens yep. Recommend a 40V2T pls

[@Midwest_Sirens]

@@windycitysirens it needs to run on 3 phase 240 tho

[@windycitysirens]

@@Midwest_Sirens 40Vs can.

[@Midwest_Sirens]

@@windycitysirens yeah most of the dual toned ones run on 3 phase but there are none of them in eastern iowa that are for sale or being taken down

[@marylandsirensfirebuff9664]

get a sentry because it will have a heater so it wont freeze up on them anymore

[@Midwest_Sirens]

we need something that runs on 3 phase 240

[@marylandsirensfirebuff9664]

@@Midwest_Sirens won’t a sentry work though?

[@windycitysirens]

@@Midwest_Sirens sentries are 3 phase 240

[@Midwest_Sirens]

@@marylandsirensfirebuff9664 no because the power is already there. we need something that runs in 3 phase 240VAC, which sentries dont with an exception of 2 or 3 models which are not around here

[@Midwest_Sirens]

@@windycitysirens most have run on batteries, meaning most of them aren't lmao unless we get one of the ones with 3 phase which there are none around here

[@supertechnocat8253]

Stinks it's going to get replaced. Try to salvage the siren and maybe add it for your collection!

[@Midwest_Sirens]

well if we are able to get it, my friend who's helping wants it so imma let him get it
