Simplex 4903-9219

[@Ultimate2T22]

My favourite 4903.

[@donbeck8835]

This one actually sounds good for a mechanical horn. Like it sounds so clean. Some mechanical horns sound very worn out.

[@rnbsteenstar]

I remember seeing those in school!

[@keolis1988]

these are rhe alarms my school use, but continious

[@IAmNotAFunguy]

These are what we had in my middle school but they had the continuous horn.

[@Silvergoat72]

Oh well my elementary Robinson school had those alarms before they got new ones and replaced the old ones I
guess?

[@Silvergoat72]

They’re set to code 3 btw

[@ThatOneExoRailfan]

Fun Fact: The 9219 is a vibratone horn. The horn is a faraday horn. If you watch newageserveralarms video called unusual vibratone you will see

[@FireRescue80]

Yeah. A lot of us already know.

[@jessicahowe1838]

Nice video!

Thanks!

[@iandionne4909]

Hey I remember in my school I use this video to prank people to think it’s a fire drill and the alarms are all in continuous so I used the continuous part of this video

[@BigMitch]

This thing kinda has a slight skip when the strobe flashes.

[@FrostedStrobes]

I'm not really sure why they do that to be honest...

[@FrostedStrobes]

I mean, I know it's because the strobe is drawing power but I don't hear it happen in other people's videos.

[@BigMitch]

@@FrostedStrobes Its probably more noticeable in this video because there is no noise interrupting it. You have set up as 4-wire right?

[@FrostedStrobes]

That's possible, I do have it as a 4-wire set up. My best guess is that most, if not all, industrial panels are built with a power supply that is made to work with the panel (and, likewise, the devices that go with it). I only have a spare that I found in my basement and a random Samsung supply that I found at the thrift store.

[@BigMitch]

@@FrostedStrobes Have you noticed skipping with any other alarms? (Besides Wheelock 700x)

[@ZakWolf]

My doctor's office has those horn/strobes on a Simplex 4020 system.

[@FrostedStrobes]

Cool! I rarely see these things in the wild, such a shame because they're so aesthetically pleasing.

[@Silvergoat72]

Mine is the same but electronic i guess?

[@ZakWolf]

@@FrostedStrobes Yeah; I don't see them very often either; usually I see the speaker version or sometimes the electronic horn version. A building at my friend's university also still has several 4903-9219 horn/strobes in place, along with TrueAlert horn/strobes AND TrueAlert speaker/strobes! (System is a Simplex 4100ES voice-evac system replacing a 4100 panel.)

[@thatonekidsencere]

that well of a high pitch

[@FireRescue80]

Nice! Is there a way that I can program my 9219 in March Time without using a panel?

[@FrostedStrobes]

Unfortunately not.

[@FireRescue80]

@@FrostedStrobes Ok. Thanks.

[@vintagefirealarmguy5285]

@@FireRescue80 a time delay relay will work for it. Newageseveralarm has a time delay to sync his strobes.

[@Loganetics1]

@@vintagefirealarmguy5285 where can I get one? And what is a good brand?

[@LF5xu]

18th with the beefy horn

[@andrewsstation6436]

How did you code this alarm?

[@FrostedStrobes]

It was connected to my control panel

[@HiSmartAlarms]

Neat o! Also what does insert text mean? xD

[@FrostedStrobes]

it's for laughs!

[@pvh_facp4001yt]

Nice
