One has to know the meaning behind these clapperes. During the Good Friday we don't ring bells but these clappers. This is only making one sound but they do vary in sounds.
The traditional way of sounding the "cuqlajta" is even more interesting. It is done manually with a long rope fixed to the wheel where the motor is.
Manually, the clapper can be turned fast or slowly. It's not an easy task, but the varying speeds, unlike the one in the picture, make the clapper vary in intensity of sound.

The sound represents the nails being hammered into Jesus' hands and feet when He was being crucified. This one is motorized!
