The AL-Siren Series by ASC is designed for community, industrial, nuclear, petrochemical, or other applications that require high levels of sound pressure level output with superb acoustical performance and brilliant voice notification broadcasting.
The AL-Siren Series can be activated locally or from a central point using radio or land line. Multiple sirens can be activated from a central point. An encoder located at the central point transmits activation codes to the siren decoder that initiates the proper tones or pre-recorded voice messages. The electronic control decoders are programmable for various tone out protocols, including TTS, DTMF, and FSK. Any of 10 standard or 6 optional customized tones can be activated.
ASC can also provide all electrical control components factory configured, reducing field installation mistakes and siren installation time and cost.

Siren Design Characteristics
Siren Models AL-4000 & AL-8000 produce 115 and 126 decibels respectively,
tested in free field non-reflective measurement environments with
repeatable results. Applications include omni directional or quadrant
configurations for 90°-360° coverage patterns. The color-impregnated
fiberglass siren horns endure severe weather conditions, are maintenance
free, and will not rust or require painting. The optional Electronic
Controls have a self-contained, regulated battery charging system that
assures full siren operation during AC outages. The control charging
unit requires a nominal 120 VAC 50/60Hz power with 5 amp service.
The gray siren horn color remains aesthetically pleasing and the low
silhouette siren design discourages vandalism.
The AL-8000 siren provides a sound pressure level of 70 decibels for
approximately I radial mile, subject to weather conditions.
The optional electronic controls include 6 push buttons for local,
manual operation of the siren, to initiate a variety of tones or
prerecorded messages. LEDs provide component or power service status
information. The amplifiers are individually fused and switchable
between hi and low outputs (from 100 watts to 6 watts per speaker
driver), for testing and servicing without the necessity of hearing
protection. The electronic control is encased in a lockable,
outdoor-use-rated NEMA enclosure. Special cabinets rated for specific
environments are available upon request.
The rechargeable batteries are encased in a separate, lockable,
maintenance-free enclosure, designed to isolate and prevent any battery
fumes from damaging electrical components. The recommended low
maintenance 12 VDC deep cycle marine-type batteries are optional, except
AL 1000 model.
Installation
For maximum sound dispersion, sirens should be mounted 45'-55' above
grade. An optional pole mount is available for mounting the poles on a
standard wooden utility pole. The center mount, low-silhouette siren
design eliminates the need for support wires. The sirens can also be
mounted on proper structures such as roofs, towers, etc. Mounting
brackets for these applications and additional installation accessories
are available from American Signal Corporation.
Field Programming
Each electronic control includes an RS-232 port for field programming of
tones and time duration. The 6 custom programmable tones can be software
programmed to generate almost any tone or tone sequence. MACROs,
customized tones and pre-recorded messages in repeated play cycles, and
new tones, can be field programmed as your needs change.
