Description:
A pair of poles carries the flux to the alarm armature, it has a damper controlled by a cam that adjusts the alarm loudness.

One of the poles that carries the flux to the alarm armature has an extension that operates the power outage indicator without diverting appreciable magnetism from the poles.
