What fire alarm sounder is this?

[Jud2890]

Just out of curiousity, does anyone know what fire alarm sounder this is? Here are some images. I am interested in old media from the 90s and 2000s and this particular piece of media is from (2002) and I noticed these fire sounders in the building. I  am interested in old sounders and would like to work with fire alarms eventually. In the next part of this media a year later (2003) these sounders had gone.

That looks very much like a "Roshni" fire alarm sounder. A very common conventional sounder. It has a choice (via DIL switches) of 32 tones. It operates at 24v (But will work at 12v) Still available today new for less than £30

Ooo could be! I was wondering if it was a Roshni but I didn’t see the logo on the end and it looked like a different shape slightly, is it an older Roshni perhaps? Possibly from the 1990s? As it was in 2002 and the sounders were removed by the looks of it so they must have been there a while.

I think it may be a sounder from a business in Wales called “Blackwood Fire” as that is what the fire extinguishers also in this building say on them but I cannot find images of the sounders they provide anywhere

If you want to see a selection of old sounders there are some featured in this:

No, Blackwood fire is a "Fire protection company" based in Wales, like most fire protection companies they buy things in, in quantity and have their own brand sticker put on it.

It is only my guess that it is a roshni, your screen shot is of such a low resolution it's not possible to be 100% accurate, also as you say it is no longer there, so it can not be proven one way or the other.

Looks like a Banshee Excel and certainly isn't old.
