ASC does this for their rotating sirens to tell witch way the head is supposed to rotate. They also do this for their omni directional sirens to tell witch way the rotor is supposed to rotate.
ACA sirens and their ASC rebrands need to be spinning in the right direction, as the rotor/stators are directional and the siren will be much quieter if it spins the wrong way. The sticker tells you which way it should be spinning so towns don't complain about the siren not performing as well as advertised.
Our sirens in MN are tested every first Wednesday of the month at 1PM. They're tested throughout the year, even in the winter. This Brookfield siren is good and strong; it's not one of those horrid older ones that sound like huge vacuum cleaners or drunken bumble bees!! LOL
Prior to September 11 2001 they were only tested March through November to avoid Freezing up in the Winter due to most systems having all Mechanical Sirens but that policy changed due to the all hazards we now face
The chopper has to spin in the right direction as the rotor/stator are directional. The sticker tells the installer which way it has to spin, or else it won't perform as well as it should.
The original Banshees were discontinued in 1994 when ACA went under and was bought by Hormann and reformed into ASC. ASC sold rebranded Banshees as the OM-117 and OM-120 until those were discontinued in 2004, replaced by the T-121.
@Datamaster can you please remove the tone numbers for security reasons? Now that you have dropped the numbers someone could activate the siren maliciously and it would most likely get Amtrack3501 in legal trouble
@@VonnaWasser ACA did file for bankruptcy. They were bought in 1994 by Hormann GmbH (same company that makes the ECN) and reformed into ASC, then ASC became an independent company in 1998 after Hormann massively mishandled the company. As for the original comment, the OM-120 is an ASC rebrand of the ACA Performance Plus Banshee.
@@jaxThesirenandcountryloverBruh literally no it’s NOTHING like a banshee. This is 9 port, banshees never came in 9 port. It’s a rebrand of the performance plus Banshee, not a regular banshee
@@jaxThesirenandcountrylover Not really. The OM-120 is more different in design than the Performance plus banshee, and it’s really the same deal like with the RM-130 and PN-20, and the RM-127 and P-15. The RMs are another series of sirens, so you can’t call a PN-20 an RM-130 or call a P-15 an RM-127 or the other way around. This isn’t a banshee, it’s an OM-120 lol

I like how the siren tells you the direction it rotates, that's something I never knew

This is basically an inproved ASC OM-117.
Om-117= 8port om-120= 9port

lol a rotation sticker on an omnidirectional siren
The Hockey Hub its to tell you which way the chopper is made to go

Yes, they are. I wonder if they still sell the banshees? I like the osc 115's a lot better.
Banshees were discounted cuz aca wenr bankrupt and switched to asc
