Alarm device

An alarm device or system of alarm devices gives an audible, visual or other form of alarm signal about a problem or condition. Alarm devices are often outfitted with a siren.

Alarm devices include:

  • burglar alarms, designed to warn of burglaries; this is often a silent alarm: the police or guards are warned without indication to the burglar, which increases the chances of catching him or her.
  • alarm clocks can beep, buzz or ring off as an alarm at a set time to wake a person up or for other reminders
  • distributed control systems (DCS), found in nuclear power plants, refineries and chemical facilities also generate alarms to direct the operator's attention to an important event that he or she needs to address.
  • alarms in an operation and maintenance (O&M) monitoring system, which informs the bad working state of (a particular part of) the system under monitoring.
  • first-out alarm
  • safety alarms, which go off if a dangerous condition occurs. Common public safety alarms include:
  • Alarum (band)

    What is left behind
    It weighs upon my mind
    The way things had seemed
    The things that should have been
    Now I've forgiven
    I pray for your return
    Our worlds are now so different
    That once free spirit
    Could be so near
    That once free spirit
    Will disappear
    Breathe those spirit fumes
    No mourning shallow abuse
    [solos - Young, Evans]

    That once free spirit
    Could be so near
    That once free spirit
