This air horn kit has been used once [to test it works]

Most of the following info is taken from the manufacturers website.

Jericho Stage 2 Air Systems pack a big pump into a small integrated tank unit.

This is a sound clip, this will give you an idea of how loud

Specifications:
35 liter per minute 12vDC compressor
18 amp draw, fuse @25 amps
3 liter integrated air storage tank
120psi-on / 90psi-off pressure switch
135 psi safety valve
140 psi air gauge
3 -1/4" NPT ports
Built-in, relocatable, water drain
Can install in any orietantion


Performance:
This unit holds enough air to operate any of our air horns and produce ear-splitting amounts of sound.


The pump in this unit is STRONG & FAST!


Unlike most of the mouse-motored 3 liter units on the market, there are no 5-8 minute refill times here. The Jericho Stage 2 pump gives a 0-120psi cycle time of about 90 seconds! 90psi-120psi re-charges happen in about a half minute.


Endurance:
The devil is in the details... This is where we set ourselves apart!


Take note of the copper air line running from the pump to the tank. Copper lines are highly unusual in 3 liter air systems. You should be asking why we used a harder to fit and install copper air line.

Jericho 5 Liter Air System Description:

Our Jericho 5 Liter Systems are a great and simple way to setup an air system. Jericho systems are pre-assembled and pre-tested for 6 run cycles at the end of our production line. We then perform a wait-test to check for slow-leaks. (This means you will find remnants of thread tape in the ports where we plugged the tank during testing!)

Our Jericho air system are now in their 3rd generation and have a number of differences to consider if you are shopping around for an air system package.

Compare Jericho air systems to other air systems which may look similar! -Ask your vendor some questions!

This is a 120psi unit, not 110psi!
All parts externally accessible for easy maintenance -no hidden fittings you can't service!
Upgraded brush design for longer motor life
Hi-temp silicon head gasket
Corrosion-resistant flapper valve
Machine welded seams
Powder coated tank exterior

The pump body and pump head on this system are made of metal, NOT silver painted plastic!
The pump to tank air line is made of copper, NOT plastic. The copper air line DOES NOT MELT when abused.
The piston rod and cam are made of forged steel not plastic
A 30mm piston (not a 20 or 25mm piston)
A 2 minute 90-120psi fill time versus need 4+ minutes on some other units...
The motor is heavy duty enough to support an expansion tank up to 4 liters.

Three 1/4inNPT ports with standard American pipe threads, reinforced and welded. The fittings at your hardware store are a perfect match.
This system is built with a check valve. The check valve stops 'pump leakage'. Without a check valve, air systems leak down quickly, run more often, and wear out faster (even if you are not using your horn!) Most other compact air systems on the market do NOT have this feature.

This system has a safety valve like all compressors are supposed to! The safety valve is also handy for draining the tank when you do maintenance.
Reinforced, welded 1/4inNPTdrain port. See our picture and compare to other vendors who glue a fitting into this port. Glues fittings do NOT hold up well to frequent use.
Tank interior is coated with rust-inhibitor.

We carry replacement parts! Some vendors send you to "factory warranty service." Where is the factory?

Jerich Air System Description

The Jericho 5L air system is about the same diameter as a 3 liter soda bottle, and about 21 inches long. It weighs about 15 pounds and runs on 12vDC power from a car or truck battery.

This Jericho 5L system gives a few seconds of blast time then automatically re-fills. The air system is quieter than most compact systems we have listened to but is by no means whisper quiet. We suggest installing it in the trunk.

This is a seriously loud horn.

video clips of similar horns can be found on the internet - youtube / Hornblasters.com and others

if your interested send me a pm

Best place is above the sh1t guard on the passenger side or some where behind the bumper but before the radiator.
