The ACA Hurricane is an electro-mechanical and rotating-directional, 130dB civil defense siren, manufactured by Alerting Communicators of America (ACA). ACA began manufacturing the Hurricane 130 in 1968, and ended production in 1981. The Hurricane 130 is similar to the Thunderbolt siren by Federal Signal Corporation and was also popular with towns looking for a high output 130dB siren.
