The sirens work by a chopper or a speaker siren the chopper sirens chop the air shot it out of vents and makes sound waves the speaker siren works by a speaker
There are 2 different types of sirens 🚨 There are electric sirens And Non-electric Sirens. The Non-Electric Sirens are powered by a Fan. The fan spins so fast that it chops up the air which causes a high Pitched noise what we call a Siren noise. But There are some sirens that are electric ⚡️ The electric sirens are sirens that do not have a fan. They are programmed to make a high pitched siren noise. Solenoids :) Sometimes sirens can make a hi-lo noise or a pulse Noise. To change the tone of the siren, Solenoids block the air which blocks the noise. Hi-lo is when one solenoid blocks the air and then the next. Pulse is when 2 Solenoids go at the same time. 🌪🚨 We all know some ways the sirens work, But most sirens are turned on by you’re city, Some state test their sirens at different times. Most sirens are tested by the city 🌃 And those are a few things I know about Tornado sirens 🚨 #Sirens #Solenoids
They're technically all electric since their motors are usually powered by electricity (with a few exceptions). The sirens that don't use fans/rotors use speakers.

When I was in elementary school, they had a tornado siren situated right next to our school. Every Tuesday it would go off at 10 am. It was a little scary at first, but eventually you got used to it. There was another one situated on the other side of town right next to another elementary school, too.
Preset tone patterns are usually put into the sirens during testing, usually in the mornings at 10am at most municipalities. Here are the sound-tone patterns for the test siren activity: The first test firing is the plateau-tone pattern, usually for several minutes. (That is the glissando up, then a steady tone, and then a glissando down to end the sound.) Then there is a break for about 1 or 2 minutes, and the test-firing happens again in test 2. The second test firing is the multiple-sine-wave-tone pattern (the several waves of glissandos up and down), also for several minutes. Tornado siren emplacements are either this option - fixed emplacements (where the sound structure on top does not move when the siren is fired), or rotating emplacements - where the top part of the siren, like a Leslie pre-amp fan on a Hammond Organ, rotates when the siren activates. The siren stops rotating when the sound stops. The tops of those sirens are usually in a hyperbolic shape for maximum output of the siren din for maximum reach so that scores of residents/people can hear the sirens and take action if needed.
The sirens in that city are called the ACA Allertor 125. 2001 SRN. Thunderbolt 1000T. RSH10. Here is some videos of the sirens sounding. Notice: these videos are not in the same place.

Although the message regarding the False attack came across the wire service and not knowing it was a false alarm WCCO followed proper procedure when the specific message came across.
“They want us to take them seriously” If I hear a tornadoe siren going the fuck off and it’s not Wednesday and it’s sunny and beautiful out, best believe I am NOT 🤣”taking cover” or “taking it seriously”

We need sirens for infectious disease warnings, and that should be actived using a switch that the public can use, for if they find themselves with an infectious disease spreading from person to person.
they never answered how they work, haha.
They press a button on a computer.
Bryce Gipple yeah well how are they so loud?
The sirens work by a chopper or a speaker siren the chopper sirens chop the air shot it out of vents and makes sound waves the speaker siren works by a speaker
I also forgot the more faster the chopper spins the more louder and high pitch the siren is
thecoolpaw 24 yeah I love the 2001’s and tbolts I also like the modulator and aca’s
I sure wish that we had more sirens in Canada. We usually only use them as fire sirens in British Columbia.
so you close to usa

Right nearby. I live in a border city.

Say what? I didn't get that comment.
Here in Alberta, we just get phone/tv emergency notifications. No sirens whatsoever.
Does Canada get very many tornadoes?
The Thunderbolt 1000T on top of the tower either
A.) is set on chopper level 7
B.) has an air leak
C.) has a reverse-wired blower
Greenfield1003 It was replaced with a Vortex in 2013
C. Has a reverse-wired blower
Fat2T22 in order to tell if the blower is reverse wired you'd have to hear the wind down. The brief cutoff is what determines that
Did i just accidently comment on a Siren-fanclub? whoops.
I remember hearing the answer for the Thunderbolt but I'm drawing a blink on what it is

I just wanna know if it's possible to blast Darude sandstorm through the sirens for everyone to hear
Ha! In the newer ones, yes, the older ones, no.
RatedASMR well you'll need to get through the police department first....
You can do that with a Whelen or Federal Signal Modulator, because they're speaker based

My city can't afford a tornado siren, so I put up my own.
Kenneth 😂😂😂
you press up to 2 buttons normally. unless you are using the siren's control box.
Me hearing tornado siren:I think it’s siren head
Me hearing you say that:I think you’re dumb
Funny hearing a story from WCCO about a false alarm, seeing one of the famous airchecks from the EBS false alarm was also from WCCO (AM).
Although the message regarding the False attack came across the wire service and not knowing it was a false alarm WCCO followed proper procedure when the specific message came across.
1:55 The siren that is rotating is a Federal Signal 2001
The second one on the water tower
Is a Federal Sign And Signal Model 5
One going off in richfield MN right now. Been going off for 30 mins haha

@Sebas Reyes It says DC right there
in croatia we don’t have that type of dangerous weather there are some sirens. Disconnected for 30 years
1:53 2 sirens next to each other? why do that?
One is replacing the other
August Hug OOOOKIIIEEE
It's probably a noon siren (yes those are real sirens).
The siren on the pole replaced the one on the tower. The siren on the tower still works very well but they shut it off after upgrading the system
I think there might also be a Erick siren but that might be somewhere else.
well this isnt how they produce sound, this is how they set them off
Das ist doch schön 👍
Good question but very bad answer!
So how do they work? That's not in this video where the answer can be found
Pov: it's the first wednesday of the month and you're bored
it works by electricity or motors

when i was in first grade i got to set the sirens in hennepin county off, i think that was in 2009 or 2010
I thought tornado sirens were automatic

Thank you
I don’t even have a tornado siren at or near my neighborhood
hey guys thegeekgroup has the named how do sirens work
I remember this, me and my family hid in the basement.
I thought once the wind hit a ceramic speed the wind made it go off haha
I agree with him when I was a little kid I used to be scared
They clearly said somebody pushes a button
“They want us to take them seriously”

So... do we get to know how it works
At first I thought he said " I sure did freak " lol it's okay I know now he said Frank .
At 1:55 there is a model 5 and a 2001-130
I heard that tornado siren
there was a practice today that no one know about
the 2001 is on the pole of the American signal corporation
What
storm alert
Tornado sirens are tested
So... you answered how they are activated... but.. HOW DO THEY WORK? The siren itself. You didn't answer your own question.
0:51 Ayy it’s a 6m 1000AT
Better question: Who don’t you answer the question?
Someone might priest it at three am
