If replacing an air horn we need to know the following in order to replace the air horn:
Air supply pressure:
(Service air system 6-9 bar or starting air system 16-30 bar)
Voltage for solenoid valve to operate horn:
Normally 230VAC (50 or 60Hz) or 115 (50 or 60Hz) or 24VDC
Voltage for heating element:
Normally 230VAC (50 or 60Hz) or 115 (50 or 60Hz) or 24VDC
Voltage for emergency solenoid if connected:
(Normally not connected)
LOA (length overall) of ship:
Just to double check that the correct type of horns is picked.

ELECTRICAL HORN replacement
If replacing an electrical horn we need to know the following in order to
replace the air horn.
Supply voltage for ships with LOA from 75m and upwards
660-690VAC 3phase (50 or 60HZ) or
440VAC 3phase (50 or 60HZ) or
360VAC 3phase (50 or 60HZ)
Supply voltage for ships with LOA <75m:
24VDC
Control voltage for big whistle:
230VAC or 115VAC 1 phase( 50 or 60Hz)
LOA (length overall) of ship: Just to double check that the correct type of
horns is picked.
