Overview

The Federal Signal EVL-120 is a 120 VAC air valve specifically designed for use with the Federal Signal 6H air horn. This valve provides reliable and precise control for audible signaling in industrial environments. It is built with a rugged construction to ensure durability in harsh conditions. The EVL-120 features standard mounting hardware for simplified installation onto existing 6H horn assemblies. Its robust design promotes consistent performance over extended periods, minimizing maintenance requirements and ensuring uninterrupted operation. This valve is a cost-effective, high-quality component that aligns with Federal Signal's reputation for reliability and safety. Key benefits include straightforward integration with the 6H air horn and a design that supports rapid deployment in critical alert systems.
