Features

It's not a fire truck unless it's got a Q-Siren. With more than 50 years of fire service tradition and history, the Federal Signal Q-Siren® is a beautifully streamlined, chrome-plated fire truck siren designed to provide unparalleled reliability for long-life operation. When mounted on a fire truck, the Q-Siren delivers a distinctive, trademark warning sound than any other electromechanical fire engine siren. The Q-Siren is the most recognizable fire truck siren sound in the US.

The Q-Siren comes in traditional chrome and black chrome, matching chrome bumpers or bumpers of blacked-out fire trucks.

The Q-Siren fire engine siren is available in two Q2B models. The Q2B-012PSD and Q2B-P-BLK come with a pedestal for bumper mounting and the Q2B-012NNSD and Q2B-NN-BLK are designed for recessed mounting in the bumper.

For flat and curved apparatus bumpers, a special bracket, the Q-MT, is available. This rugged, durable mount is easy to install. Constructed of tough 3/8-inch steel, the Q-MT design protects the siren from the impact of rough roads.

For increased convenience, the Q2B-SWKIT foot switch kit is also available. The kit comes with everything necessary to wire a foot switch to any Q2B model, enabling the operator to power the fire truck siren “hands-free.”

The distinct sound of the Q2B electro-mechanical siren is a registered trademark of Federal Signal Corporation.

Important Warning for Police Boats and Fire Rescue Boats

It has come to our attention that police boat and fire rescue boat sirens and speakers may subject persons operating those craft to sound pressure levels that can cause permanent hearing loss. We recommend that speakers be located as far forward on the boat as possible, as recommended in the SAE Recommended Practice J1849 “Emergency Vehicle Sirens”. However, unprotected exposures of a sufficient duration to properly located siren speakers can still create a risk of hearing loss.

It is our recommendation that your siren speakers should be relocated and persons operating these craft should wear hearing protection when using the siren system.

Failure to comply with these recommendations may result in temporary or permanent hearing loss to operators and passengers of these vehicles.
