The Model 3 is a step down for the Model 5, but people still manage to get confused with the two despite the Model 3 being pretty uncommon. The rotor is 13 inches in diameter which came in 2 different port ratios: 12 and 8-port single tone only. No dual tone versions of this siren were available. The siren was housed in a very simple enclosure that resembles an air vent found on building roofs.
