Safety Message to Installers of Siren Speakers
People's lives depend on your proper installation and servicing of Federal Signal products. It is
important to read and follow all instructions shipped with this product and the original product. Listed below
are some other important safety instructions and precautions you should follow:
Before Installation
Qualifications
•
To properly install an electronic siren, you must have a good understanding of automotive electri-
cal procedures and systems, along with proficiency in the installation and service of safety warning
equipment. Always refer to the vehicle's service manuals when installing equipment on a vehicle.
Sound Hazards
•
Your hearing and the hearing of others, in or near your emergency vehicle, could be damaged by
loud sounds. This can occur from short exposures to very loud sounds, or from longer exposures to
moderately loud sounds. For hearing conservation guidance, refer to federal, state, or local recom-
mendations. OSHA Standard 1910.95 offers guidance on "Permissible Noise Exposure."
•
All effective sirens and horns produce loud sounds (120 dB) that may cause permanent hearing
loss. Always minimize your exposure to siren sound and wear hearing protection. Do not sound the
siren indoors or in enclosed areas where you and others will be exposed to the sound.
•
Federal Signal siren amplifiers and speakers are designed to work together as a system. Combining
a siren and speaker from different manufacturers may reduce the warning effectiveness of the siren
system and may damage the components. You should verify or test your combination to make sure
the system works together properly and meets federal, state and local standards or guidelines.
During Installation
•
DO NOT get metal shavings inside the product. Metal shavings can cause the system to fail. If drill-
ing must be done near the unit, place an ESD-approved cover over the unit to prevent metal shav-
ings from entering the unit. Inspect the unit after mounting to be sure there are no shavings present
in or near the unit.
•
DO NOT connect this system to the vehicle battery until ALL other electrical connections are made,
mounting of all components is complete, and you have verified that no shorts exist. If wiring is
shorted to vehicle frame, high current conductors can cause hazardous sparks resulting in electrical
fires or flying molten metal.
•
Be sure the siren amplifier and speaker(s) in your installation have compatible wattage ratings.
•
In order for the electronic siren to function properly, the ground connection must be made to the
NEGATIVE battery terminal.
•
Sound output will be severely reduced if any objects are in front of the speaker. If maximum sound
output is required for your application, you should ensure that the front of the speaker is clear of any
obstructions.
