High-intensity Hooter Built With A Robust Sheet-metal Enclosure
The Agni 418 High Intensity Hooter is a powerful audible audible alarm device designed for 24V DC conventional fire alarm systems. Producing 95-115 dB sound output, it provides loud emergency alerts for industrial, commercial, and high-noise environments. The hooter features a robust sheet-metal enclosure, efficient 6-Watt loudspeaker, and a dual-tone pulsed alarm signal for maximum audibility during fire emergencies.
Part Number: AGNI-418 | Category: Hooter/Hooter Flasher/Hooter cum Speaker
Description
The Agni 418 High Intensity hooter is a heavy-duty audible warning device designed to deliver immediate alarm signals during fire emergencies or critical alarm conditions. It integrates seamlessly with 24V DC conventional fire alarm control panels, ensuring reliable operation across a wide range of applications.Â
When an alarm is triggered by smoke detectors, heat detectors, or manual call points, the fire alarm panel activates the hooter circuit. The internal solid-state electronics generate a pulsed dual-tone alarm signal, which drives the built-in loudspeaker to produce a highly audible warning sound.Â
With sound output reaching up to 115 dB, the device is capable of delivering clear alarm signals across large areas such as manufacturing plants, warehouses, commercial complexes, hospitals, and residential buildings.
The hooter is constructed using a robust steel-metal enclosure, protecting the internal components from vibration, dust, and physical impact commonly present in industrial installations. Its solid-state electronic design eliminates mechanical moving parts, improving reliability white reducing maintenance requirements.Â
The integrated 8-Ohm, 6-Watt loudspeaker with a rectangular-oval diaphragm design (72 × 42.4 mm) ensures efficient sound protection and consistent acoustic performance.Â

Step-by-Step High Intensity Hooter Working Principle?
01
Fire is Detected
Smoke detectors, heat detectors or a manual call point detect a fire or emergency condition and send a signal to the fire alarm control panel.
02
Alarm Panel Activates the Circuit
The fire alarm control panel processes the signal and sends a 24V DC trigger to the connected high intensity hooter.
03
Hooter Receives Power
Once the hooter receives the electrical signal, its internal electronic circuit activates immediately.
04
Alarm Tone is Generated
The device generates a pulsed fire alarm sound pattern (0.30 second ON / 0.30 seconds OFF) designed to stand out from normal background noise.
05
Loudspeaker Produces High-Volume Sound
The built-in 8-ohm, 6-watt loudspeaker convert the signal into a powerful audible alarm with 95-115 dB sound output.
06
Occupants Hear the Alarm and Evacuate
The loud alarm spreads across the area, alerting people to evacuate and take safety action during a fire emergency.
