Steve,

        Maybe a push button is all you want/need but, I personal like things
to work/operate automatically. What I thought was something like this:

 P&B CR Series Recycle Time Delay Relay.

pdf
And they are available in 24vdc coil.

No need to reply,
Good Luck on your Project.

Thanks guys for the information and advice. As Rick discovered, RivRad has
a floor siren switch and a hand push button siren switch. Don't remember
seeing anything like that before.

My siren's data plate says:

WGW Ser 4L51
Volts 25 Amps 8
U.S.
Federal Sign and Signal Corp
Blue Island, Ill.
Contract No. DSA700-69-C-2387

Thanks again.
Steve
