Mini Klaxon CS8 Siren (READ DESCRIPTION)

NOTICE:
This siren spins faster than a normal UK siren, and at this scale finding a motor for it to run at the UK speed wouldn't be easy but if the motor this particular siren is using were to be running off of 50hz or simply just a lower voltage, it would spin at the correct speed. I've completely designed this siren and had some help with British Life Safety Systems for helping me with dimensions on the real thing so it can be made very accurately. I've also had a little bit of help here and there by Edaan and speaking in which, this siren will eventually be sold on minisirens.net/ Stay tuned! The prototyping of this siren is almost completely done but not quite ready yet for when it is sold.
SPECS:
Motor: 120VAC @ 60HZ 3600 RPM
Solenoids: 24VAC running off of 40VA supply

Woahh the Hi-Lo gave me instant broadmoor nostalgia

[@federalsystem7000.]

Heck yes

[@fredricgreenblott4169]

Wow, you even got the correct hi-lo / escape signal damper frequency and the wind-down with the closed dampers! Definitely a telltale characteristic of the CS8 and you really did nail it.

[@trainzinnit9232]

They are these sirens are secomak CS8 or a Klaxton CS8

[@BritishRailwaysandSirens]

could possibly use something like a motor speed controller or variac to get the right rpm on the rotor for the CS-8’s tones. Otherwise a damn good and functional model

[@robloxsirenrecorder7434]

Holy crap wow i have never seen a mini cs8

[@the_real_drwhoroblox1935]

If you ever have a chance, can you create a UK exclusive version with a motor that spins at the right rpm?

[@doohickey-enjoyer]

Yeah nah I am gonna buy this instead of the 2T22.

[@mattmakesmachines]

When will these be available?

[@TheOfficialDorianelevator]

wait i got an idea, if someone orders this in a 50hz country, THAT MEANS IT WILL RUN AT THE CORRECT SPEED. so maybe you can add this one onto the shop but make it as 50hz countries only and that it needs a 240 to 120v converter, this could be good.

[@bsodgamer1234_unverified]

Amazing! That sounds like 12/15 3T22! What do you use for the chopper?

[@chriswaring5565]

THE SECOND ONE WAS LIKE THE BROADMOOR PRISON SIRENS

[@racer927]

Nice! Apparently the U.K., in the event of a nuclear attack, would sound sirens like these in a pulse tone rather than hi-lo for the "Gray Warning" which is "fallout expected in an hour". I was wondering if you could wire both of them together to recreate that signal?

[@fredricgreenblott283]

@@neth420The Broadmoor CS8 sirens use the hi-lo tone as the patient escape signal. Pulse was not used. As far as I know, any coded siren in the UK such as the CS8 or CS6 would indeed use pulse as the “fallout grey” warning.

[@derekobidowski3301]

the motor spins faster on the US power at 60 hertz but for the UK and the rest of the world the motor will spin slower as the frequency of the electrical power is generated at 50 hertz the bigger sirens use a three phase motor the single phase motors will be a capacitor type.

[@mindyabeezwaxxdoodes]

You think you can make A mini ACA hurricane 130 MKII model with and without solenoids?

This is excellent! I would love to have one over here in the UK as soon as they become available, perhaps via a package forwarding service...

[@r31jz66]

This is just a suggestion but I was wondering if you could help with edaan to make a coded variant of the cyclone?

[@ssrd276]

Not sure

[@ChrisRichmond]

Amazing effort. Is the wind-down being controlled? One would expect something of small dimensions to wind down much quicker unassisted.

[@ssrd276]

Nope! Winddown fully rides with the bearings unassisted.

[@abecoulter8550]

is it 3D printed, do you have build plans you can share?

[@FM60260]

Are you just building one of these and selling it or will these be production built? It would be interesting to try running one of these with a 110V site transformer on 50Hz UK supply, assuming it would be able to run on a split phase without having the casing as ground like with a starter motor. Edit: I'm also curious to know what an SD10 would sound like on 50Hz.

[@ssrd276]

Oh yes this will eventually be sold under Edaan's Mini Sirens! minisirens.net/ There is currently no window for release of this yet but we'll establish one eventually. The motor on this should definitely run fine off of a 110V @ 50HZ site transformer and run at it's correct speed. It'll come equipped with a junction box that houses the starting capacitor and a plug in supply to run the shutter mechanisms. And yeah an SD-10 running off of 50HZ would definitely have an interesting sound lol

I wish you added a transformer to the chopper motor to simulate it running on 50Hz, but it still is amazing! Wonder if it is for sale

[@ssrd276]

I'd need a variac to do that but don't have one unfortunately. Very limited on what I could do for that.

[@TheMatsushitaMan]

Transformers don't change frequency

[@YourAverageMODude145]

You would need a special VFD to run this on 50Hz due to this motor type it would be very hard to change frequency, but there is another option! If you use a dimmer switch the newer ones that have a mosfet in them, that would work... sorta.

[@jackkastrup6836]

Question: when a siren that's coded (ex. 3t22), when the dampers are open, are the solenoids on or off?

[@ssrd276]

The shutters are in the opened position when the solenoid is energized on this particular siren and same with traditional Klaxons/Secomaks. The shutter mechanism on a 3T22 is set up differently compared to this and the shutters are in the closed position when the solenoid is energized.
