Type V (Czechian: Vzor V) is a line of omnidirectional electromechanical sirens produced by Elektrolanger (also Elektro-Langer) or Elektrolanger Prague (Czechian: Elektrolanger Praha) in Prague, PR—Elektrolanger also made other signaling devices such as mechanical bells and horns. The Type V line ranges from small industrial alarms to large air raid and fire sirens. The Type V sirens were made as early as 1922 according to Elektrolanger documentation, and it is unknown when they were discontinued. Few Type V sirens exist today, and little is known about them.
