Custom air horn systems built specifically for Australia’s mining & heavy industries.
We can customise our range of components to fit any machine where an Air Horn System is required. Unparalleled reliability, safety & a full range of replacement parts to minimise costly machine downtime.
For over 20 years, our custom Air Horn Systems have been the standard on most mining operations across the country. We supply directly to most major OEM’s and new machine dealers as well as working together with individual contractors, earthmovers and mining operations to supply directly to site. As licensed auto electricians we supply a complete install solution with custom length wiring harnesses made individually to each machine as well as providing all parts for a team on site to complete an install down to every last bolt, cable tie and bracket.
The HS01K System comprises a fully independent 24VDC compressed air system that provides compressed air to the HS001 Air Horn. Full wiring, pneumatic adapters are provided but most installs are relatively straight forward thanks to our experience in installing these systems over 20 years. We can offer installing in the Perth region but most of our customers choose to handle this themselves with our provided documentation. We only utilise components that have proven durability and reliability in the field to withstand the harsh conditions of Australian mining operations.
We ALWAYS maintain a fully stocked parts warehouse for immediate dispatch from Welshpool, WA and can help your maintenance coordinators with spare parts stocking strategies and service intervals.
The Air Horns Systems Australia HS01K kit consists of a high powered single tone Air Horn with a loudness of 140db @ 1m with a tone frequency of 311 +‐ 10 Hz. An oiless single cylinder, 24V powered air compressor which has been matched to a large capacity 16.0 litre air receiver tank which is custom made in Australia with our specifications to Australian Standard AS1210 and is classed as a AS4343 Hazard Level of E which means it does not need to be registered as a pressure vessel risk & does not need to be periodically inspected. However, a standard 1" inspection port is fitted to the tank to ensure compliance in all countries, states, regulatory bodies or company policies. Each Receiver tank has a Certificate of Plant Design Registration and a Hydrostatic Test report included. Kits are designed to exact indidivudal machine requirements for optimal working conditions & ease of install & maintenance. The unit is powered from the base equipment's 24V power supply. All electrical harnesses and the control module unit are protected by a circuit breaker that can be re‐set or a thermal fuse that is re‐settable. The air intake incorporates a replaceable spin‐on air filter. The fully sealed control module unit incorporates a: 'over‐run' protection timer set to five (5) minutes, and a 24V motor start solenoid. All the harness are made by ourselves as qualified Auto-Electricians and are braided to protect against friction & UV damage. All harnesses and our proprietary System Control Module utilise industry standard 'Deutsh' style connectors that are protected from dust and water ingress. The air receiver tank includes the following components: Pressure gauge, brass check valve as a primary backflow prevention in addition to the compressors check valve, a manually operated condensation mini ball valve with a drain hose that drains water away from the kit istallation area, a certified safety relief valve whcih is certified to AS1271-2003, a hi ‐low pressure switch to maintain a min air pressure of 70PSI & a max of 100PSI
We stock a full range of mild steel metric weld buttons at affordable prices, much more efficient than fabricating them at small scale.
They include 2mm chamfered edges and a chamfered lead into the thread for ease of getting fasteners started.
We can also apply bulk pricing for large orders, just reach out to us for a quote for a bulk order.

The Federal Signal 24VDC Electric Air Horn is a widely utilised horn for signalling between machines in a smaller mining or construction industries where standard electric horns are not sufficient but where the high loudness of our HS01K Air Horn Systems are too loud.
Model 52 resonating horn is ideal for penetrating high ambient noise levels. Being electrically activated, Model 52 does not require an expensive air compressor for operation. It is able to withstand the shocks, vibrations, dust, and atmospheric conditions encountered in off-road use. Rubber gaskets and a power connector make Model 52 completely watertight. The projector and internal parts are made to resist corrosion; the exterior is sealed with gray, enamel paint, and the housing is diecast aluminium. Model 52 has a duty cycle of five minutes on and five minutes off. Used by many major manufacturers of construction equipment, Model 52 resonating horns suit the warning needs of any off-road vehicle working in a high noise environment
