Factory Evacuation Fire Alarm Test

Test on an old plant evacuation alarm. Warning: Loud
We were tasked with bringing the system back online after sitting abandoned for 10+ years. All equipment was already in place.
Equipment List: Federal Signal Vibratone w/ dual projectors, SpectrAlert Classic, Honeywell Vista 32fbpt Control Panel, NCC Solid State Timer Relay.

This is what a fire alarm is supposed to sound like.

[@Aubrey-ex2tn]

No, not really. They just "reprogrammed" it to sound what a normal old Evacuation alarm

[@ScimitarRaccoon]

@@Aubrey-ex2tn Uhh no, those are Mechanical horns

[@plurallydial]

@@ScimitarRaccoon I think he means the sequence and timing of the horn activation

Danger: Dark Matter Reactor Explosion will occur in T-10 Minutes. The option to shutdown the reactor core will expire in T-5 Minutes. The option to shut down the Dark Matter Reactor is now active.

wow the vibratone is really loud but the wheelock cuts through like a razor sharp knive! that must have been exhausting for the ears! cool sound

[@Creeperboy099]

Ah so that’s what makes that stereotypical alarm-buzzer sound A federal signal vibratone

[@jayl4565]

Yep, almost all horns AC horns made from the 1960s onward are rebrands of the federal signal vibratone 350 Horn. There was a DC variant too, known as the 450.

i didn't hear a spectralert classic but two mts and the last mechanical horn might not be federal signal since the projector has triangular openings

Why it hasn't normal timing or coding on the Horns. They are just being switched via timer relay for the on/off. Standard relay would sound them continuously.
