This Is A Correction To My First Post The Siren Is Definitly A Sterling M 5 -16/16 Port
1926 WOW It Is The Oldest I Have Seen Yet Nice Siren

Your Siren Is A 1926 or 1930 Sterling M 5 -16 Port . I Know Someone Else That Has One Very Rare These Days It’s Not In To Terrible Of Shape Excellent Luck On Your Restoration That Inlet Will Be Tuff But It’s All There If You Can Get It To Run Please Make A Vid I Would Like To Here It Full Speed

It could also be an Sterling M-5 as well.

@canam1125 I’d place it around mid 30s to mid 40s hard to say without serial# tag

@Jpressman8 Sir do you know when these were manufactured? It has a 5 horse “red band” motor

Yes, Sterling H. There are still reasonably a few of these still in service where I live.

That is a single-toned Sterling Model H from the 1930′s. The company is still in business as Sentry Sirens.
