Fire alarm bells are the traditional fire alarm warning device although they are becoming less common in new installations.
Fire alarm bells provide lower sound penetration compared with fire alarm sounders and are available in a limited range of variants.
Fire alarm bells are still widely used in Educational establishments and since the alarm tone is very distinct, they also have their applications in premises where there are other systems or plant/machinery which emit tones similar to a fire alarm sounder.
In schools, fire alarm bells are often combined with a “lesson change” facility whereby the fire alarm bells are operated intermittently to signify lesson change.
Fire alarm bells are typically available in red finish for fire alarm applications and grey finish where used for other applications such as “lesson change”.
