Location: Zimmerman Elementary Soccer Fields, Zimmerman, Minnesota
Temp: 70°F
Signal: 3 minute alert
Units Heard:
Federal Signal 500-AT (main unit) - 260ft
Federal Signal 2001-130 - 0.5 miles
Sentry 15V1T - 0.9 miles
After North Hudson this morning, I ventured to the home of the 728 Cadets to hear my very first 500. This is one of only three 500s in the entire state of Minnesota, and is the only one of the three that is dual tone. The sirens in Sherburne County were set off about one minute early, and ran a full three minute test. This didn’t seem too loud, but I could definitely feel it. Although, it was still nothing in comparison to the 2001-130 earlier the same day. After the Sherburne County sirens shut off, you can hear Xcel Energy nuclear sirens in neighboring Wright County still going off, which were an impressive 8-10 miles away on average. There was almost no wind today, and the temperature conditions were just right, so that is likely why they were so clear. Thanks for watching, and enjoy.
Sherburne County tests their siren system on the first Wednesday of every month at 1PM, weather permitting.

The Chrysler-Bell Victory sirens of the early 1950s, were rated at 138 dB, and their sound could carry 25+ miles under the right atmospheric conditions!
The wind up sounds epic! That’s exactly why I love the 500s
a 500 without rotation problems? impossible!
That ambience is so beautiful.
Dude this has to be your best recording yet!!
Those sirens are extremely rare to find only 1 town in Tennessee has one it’s Bristol,TN
Absolutely amazing nice job!
Sherburne has a siren like this? I had no clue. Guess I'm too used to Wright County being littered with 2001s.
Wright has a lot of sirens that aren’t 2001s, same with Sherburne to a lesser extent. The reason there are so many is because of Xcel Energy’s nuclear power station in Monticello, which has 2001-SRNs within a ten mile radius of the station.
Finally a good recording of this! I still can't believe this exists. How loud was it?
Not very, if I’m being honest. The North Hudson 130 was a lot louder than this was.
123 dB maybe.
@@mnsirens the one that’s in Bristol,TN I heard the siren is capable of being heard upto 8 miles away full power
@@mnsirens dude it sounds like a SD-10 a 2001-SRN is out there
Nice to see where the twisted devs got one if the siren sounds from
I LOVE it this video is amazing 👏 😍
nice video!
Bristol,TN had that siren and 3 2t22s 1 got removed not sure if it’ll be put back up or not
Nice!
I want to go film that siren. See if it’s still there
Federal's version of the iconic Allertor.
!? I’ll have to try and find it someday
Oh my gosh what the freak happened to the horn?
The Federal Signal Allertor!
More like an older P-10 lol
Nice
Isn't Exel Energy shutting down that Plant in Motiicello MN
No, it’s currently licensed to operate until 2030. Xcel is looking to get the license extended to 2040 as of their most recent five year. It could shut down in the near future if something happens, but as of now, it will continue operating for the foreseeable future.
This looks so old. Like one of the earliest sirens FS has made.
Not even close
@@United_HVAC_and_Fans early federal sign & signal
This is a 9/12 500T, and this design was used from 1970 until the siren's discontinuation in 1981. So it's roughly 40-50 years old. The 10/12 500-SHTT uses the same shape but those are from the 1960's.
Does anyone know if Saint Croix county tests their sirens in the winter?
St. Croix County tests their sirens on the first Wednesday of every month at 11AM, all year. The only thing that would get the test cancelled is severe weather conditions in the area.
@@mnsirens thank you so much for telling me I was worried I won’t get to record a siren this Wednesday!
@@mnsirens i’m recording the Roberts thunderbolt this Wednesday
@@soum23 sorry for the late comment but if im not mistaken that bolt went bye bye
@@kristinaschiller7148 no it did not I just want to go see it today it failed its test but it’s still there
Exactly what an allertor might sound like
This peaks like an Allertor but it sounds nothing like one. It is more raspy, with distinct overtones on the wind up/wind down. That’s the thing you get with Federal Signal 9/12 port chopper assemblies. ACA’s are just more punchy and don’t have overtones as they have a directional rotor
Dadgum that paint scheme on the horn is pretty much a goner
that may sound like Federal signal SD-10
And ACA allertor
@@sieandknsproductions3491 Well allertor and 500at have similar choppers but with the 500AT, SD-10, Model 7T or 5T have the same choppers
EBIC!
this guy doesn't wanna see dislikes on this video lol
twisted from roblox used this lol
Must be about 123 dB.
Yeah that’s about right, although it’s prb more as most dual tone 500s are 125dB I’d say. 9/12 500s seem the quietest to me for some reason
