Introduction
Federal Signal Modulator Series siren products are a family of electronic sirens that are
capable of producing high-intensity warning signals over a large area. The siren consists
of a speaker array and Control/Battery Cabinets. A highly efcient design enables the
siren to produce a high-sound level while making moderate demands on the power
source.
Modulator models purchased after September 2017 are precongured to support top and
side lights kits for visual signaling options that can enhance the proven technology of the
Modulator’s intelligible voice communication and signaling.

modules that use four 100-watt drivers per module. The Modulator series B is available in
