This is a theoretical 1HP siren for ACA's Screamer series. Uses the core of an ACA Hurricane MKII, now as a vertical omnidirectional naturally aspirated siren. 

 

Probably would be a Klaxon SS6 competitor. Doubt it would be able to compete with a FS Model 2.

 

 

README:

 

All stls are already in the correct print orientation.  

 

 

Motor:
Any 2.8 or 2.9 inch "Samsung" blower motor.  Right now the motor cover only accommodates 2.8" but  will make a 2.9" version later.

I'm using a 250v 8uf capacitor, but i will later add a larger junction box that fits a 10uf!

Hardware:
M3x10mm machine screws (13x)

M3x8mm machine screws (8x) (hold hat and junction box)

M3 nut (13x)

M2x6 machine screws (hold the junction box lid on)

M3x5.7 threaded inserts (7x) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08BCRZZS3

Rotor installation:

 8mm to 8mm 14mm OD 25mm L shaft coupler

10 gram slotted weights (20x)  This link gets you 3 rotors worth of weight!

To secure the weights, simply push them into the bottom of the rotor.  They should just slip right in.  If needed, you can tap them in with a hammer.  These are made of steel, so it should be alright to take some hammer taps.

Put a set screw in both top holes on the shaft coupler.  leave the bottom two screw holes empty.  Then tap the coupler into the rotor from the top with a plastic mallet or plastic screwdriver handle. 

Make sure the set screws are lined up with the access cutouts in the rotor hub.  Don't use a hammer, you can damage the soft aluminum.

 


Once you have assembled the siren, you should secure the siren with tape or bolt it to a mount (M4 machine screws).  This siren iis compatible with Demetrius's 1/3 scale ACA siren mounts!

If u don't do this, the siren will spin on startup like that Screamer did at Sirencon that one year.
