The directional Alertronic 5000 was introduced in 1983. The assembly contained a fiberglass projector consisting of six exponential channels that came together into one large horn. Each channel was connected to two 100-watt drivers for a total of 1200 watts. Supposedly, the design was later altered to include four 100-watt drivers per channel for a total of 2400 watts. The assembly utilized a rotor that spun the noise making components 360 degrees. Very few of these sirens were reported to have been installed, with a witness account suggesting one was installed in Rhinelander, WI. The Alertronic 5000 was rated 125 dB at 100 ft. It was discontinued in 1984 and ultimately replaced with the Alertronic 6000
