IBM RVF-4015-6A + Simplex 4263-1 Pull

A vid of my IBM bell wired up to my Simplex 4263-1 pull station. I wish I could get a module that'll make the bell do single-stroke...

And yes, those are sparks you see coming from the contacts in the pull...

@lkfcobra 4263-1 is the model of the pull. Each pull has a different coding to it so officials can identify where it's located within a building. This particular pull is set for a 4-2-1 code.

Schools need to invest in a more efficient warning system.

[weatherdan882002]

@ThePhantom710 Well, these alarms date back to the 1950s, not much "efficiency" was around back then...

We have bell alarms at my school.. It is so annoying when it rings because first you think it's recess, then you figure out that it lasts a bit longer and you have to gtfo of the building xD

My school has a few of these not hooked up by the Honeywood fire alarms. It also in some places has the Simplex 500 bell. IDK what it is.

@ilovepolice1 Couch was the original maker of them. Simplex and others rebranded them; I have the Simplex version, and inside it on the bottom I can see a Couch logo. Couch was bought out by Faraday in the late 1970s.
