Federal Signal STH-10 Siren Drill Run

Ғылым және технология

Drill test of my 1950s or early 60s STH-10 before a complete restoration. for now its a loud vegetable cutter
Just replaced the bearings, still need to be broken in as you can hear of the faster coast than usual,
this is the 3-phase model Y(double wYe for 240) configuration for either 220 or 480V, 10HP with 3400RPMs
motor windings are still good, none are shorted to ground and enamel coating looks fresh, so it tells me the motor is ready for power.

    People just use engines and just do that! In sirens like the 3t22 you can sometimes see it.

    @@NickSilcox3 Sirens break when something's wrong and then they take to the Scrap yard with the other broken sirens that's why I was questioning why the thing was a broken siren because The STH 10 doesn't have it's horns that makes the siren radius longer when it was fired up and blasting and the rust makes it look older so good job on that and next video should be on the Alertor 125 because there are broken ones In the scrap yard

    This maybe too late of a response but according to the manual, the 3 phase STH-10 is around 370 pounds while a Model 5 which is strangely heavier goes up around 400 pounds.
