SA-441-17 Installation and Operating Instructions  
GENERAL DESCRIPTION  
The SA-441 Dual Siren Amplifier with Mechanical Tone is a premium unit designed for dual  
100W speaker use. The control head is only 1 inch deep and can be installed in minimum  
clearance areas. Connection between the control head and amplifier is via a single lead wire  
with common ground.  
A 6-position rotary selector switch controls the primary operating modes of Radio, Standby,  
Mechanical, Wail, Yelp, and Phaser. A Dual siren control switch provides additional modes,  
including dual Mechanical, Wail and Yelp, Yelp and Mechanical, and Phaser and Mechanical.  
Two-Tone may optionally replace Phaser. A Siren push-button switch is provided for Manual  
control of the output tone or Horn override, depending on the selector switch and option switch  
settings. An independent toggle switch controls power. A hole is provided in the amplifier to  
adjust Radio volume.  
Depending upon the version, the microphone may or may not be directly mounted to the  
control head. Units with an “F” suffix have the microphone permanently mounted to the  
faceplate. Units with an “FX” suffix are provided with an extension harness and connectors for  
remote mounting of the microphone.  
An auxiliary input is provided for connection to a positive or negative horn ring circuit or switch,  
performing the same function as the Siren push-button.  
An 8-position DIP switch on the amplifier allows selection of various options: Two-Tone to  
replace Phaser, Manual Mechanical, Manual Wail, and Horn Ring Cycler 2 (HRC2), which  
allows cycling through Mechanical, Wail, Yelp, and Phaser by tapping the horn ring when the  
function switch is in the Standby position. The front panel is backlighted with LED's for night  
visibility.  
This durable unit utilizes short circuit, high voltage, and reverse polarity protection systems for  
maximum service life over a wide temperature range. Two separately fused amplifiers provide  
redundancy, and the unit will operate with only one amplifier functioning.

MOUNTING – Amplifier  
Select a location for the amplifier in an area such as the driver compartment firewall, under a  
seat, etc. Mounting the amplifier in the engine compartment or in an area directly exposed to  
weather is not recommended. Assure adequate ventilation to prevent overheating. Allow  
clearance for wiring and radio adjustment. Inspect behind mounting area for clearance. Mark  
the location of the mounting holes to be drilled.  
Drill 4 holes (up to 1/4" diameter) to mount the amplifier to the vehicle. Install the terminal  
block plug and make all electrical connections before final mounting (See ELECTRICAL  
CONNECTIONS – Amplifier). The plug is secured with the two locking screws. Then mount  
the amplifier to the vehicle using appropriate hardware (not supplied).  
MOUNTING – Control Head  
Select a mounting location in an area such as the dash or overhead console. Choose a  
mounting location convenient to the operator and away from any air bag deployment areas.  
Inspect behind mounting area for clearance. Allow 1¾” of depth to accommodate the control  
head and cable(s). Consider wire routing and access to connections, as well as microphone  
bracket placement.  
Use template (back page) for marking hole and cutout locations. Connect control head cable  
to back of unit and route leads through cutout. Make all electrical connections (See  
ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS – Control Head), and then use #6 screws for mounting the  
control head (not supplied).  
MOUNTING - Microphone Extension Harness (“FX” model only)  
Select  
microphone connector, verifying adequate  
cable length. Allow 1-3/4" clearance  
a
mounting location for the  
Control Head – Rear View  
Microphone  
behind connector to prevent sharp bends in  
the harness. Drill or punch a 5/8" diameter  
hole for mounting. Remove mounting nut  
and washer from connector. Insert the  
connector into the hole and secure it using  
a 3/4" socket to tighten the nut. Connect  
harness to the control head as shown prior  
to final installation of head.

SA-441-17 Installation and Operating Instructions  
ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS - Amplifier  
Electrical connections to the amplifier are made using a terminal block plug located on the  
amplifier. A label on the unit identifies each terminal function. You should install the plug on  
the unit before wiring. If the unit needs service the plug can be easily removed without  
unwiring. The power supply of the unit must be capable of delivering peak currents up to 50  
amps for adequate short circuit protection and reliable operation. The preferred source is  
directly at the vehicle battery. The amplifier is fused near connector.  
Attach leads by stripping 3/8", inserting into connector and clamp by tightening screw. Make  
sure the screw is tight and the wire can't be pulled out.  
Failure to adequately tighten the screw can result in improper operation or burning the  
connector and wire.  
Wire Size and Termination - The diagram shows the minimum wire size used for each  
connection, along with recommended lead color. If the wire is longer than 10 ft. use the next  
larger wire size. The power lead pairs can be extended with single #10 AWG lead wire. Use  
only high quality crimp connectors for installation on the vehicle.  
Please note that three leads are connected to the speakers – one common lead to the  
negative of both speakers and one lead to each positive speaker terminal. This is necessary  
for proper operation.  
Optional Radio Input Connection - Connect one lead to each terminal of the radio speaker  
or output connector. The input is isolated and polarity is not important. May need to set  
RADIO VOLUME ADJUST on side of amplifier.  
ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS – Control Head  
All control head leads can be extended with #22 AWG or larger lead wire.  
Black: Negative - Connect to same ground or negative supply as amplifier.  
Red: Positive - May be connected to +VDC supply. It is recommended that the lead be  
connected to the accessory output of the fuse block. This provides additional protection of a  
fused input to the control head.  
Yellow: Lights - This lead may be connected to the dash lights or to the red power lead.  
Connecting to the dash lights will turn on the panel lights whenever the dash lights are on.  
When connected to the red lead, make sure that the ignition switch controls the power to that  
connection. This prevents the panel lights from being continuously on.  
White: Control - Connect white leads from amplifier and control head. Route this lead away  
from the transmitter antenna lead to prevent R.F. interference being fed to the siren amplifier.  
Green: Auxiliary Input - Used for Siren control. Performs same function as Siren button.  
Connect to a normally open switch or to horn ring circuit. Circuit may connect to either positive  
or negative. When connected to horn ring circuit, use a SPDT switch to connect horn ring to  
either vehicle horn or to manual control circuit.  
NOTE: Permanent disconnection of the vehicle horn is NOT recommended.  
NOTE: Be sure to cut lead short if not used and insulate with electrical tape.

SERVICE  
This unit is designed to provide years of reliable service under even the worst conditions.  
Many times there may appear to be a problem with the unit when the true problem is in the  
speaker(s) or improper installation. The following chart shows typical symptoms and possible  
causes.  
A blown amplifier fuse doesn't necessarily mean that the unit is bad. If a speaker or speaker  
lead is shorted this fuse will blow before the unit is damaged. Disconnect the SPKR leads and  
replace the fuse. If the siren emits a sound when in the Yelp position it is OK. Check the  
speaker(s) or leads for possible shorting.
