4 Trumpet Train Horn Kit, 150 dB, 10 L Tank
A train horn kit is an air system, not just a horn. This one pairs four trumpets with a 10 L (2.6 gal) tank and a 280 W 12 V compressor. The horn is rated at a maximum of 150 dB, and the pressure switch keeps the tank between 110 and 160 psi.
It runs on 12 V. The kit is designed for a vehicle or boat with a 12 V electrical system. Check the alternator and battery before adding a high-current accessory, and use the supplied fuse on the power lead.
What the tank size changes
The trumpets are the same four-horn design across the range. The tank is what changes the character of the blast.
- 3 L: short, sharp blast; fast refill; lightest kit.
- 6 L: about twice the air reserve, so a longer blast holds its note.
- 10 L: the largest reserve and a higher 110 to 160 psi range, with a 280 W compressor to match.
The 10 L tank and higher 110 to 160 psi range give the most reserve air of the three kits, with a stronger compressor to refill it. This kit suits a large truck, crane, bus or marine installation where the horn has to carry across a yard.
How the air system works
The compressor fills the tank until the pressure switch reaches 160 psi, then stops. When pressure falls to 110 psi, the switch restarts the compressor. A gauge on the tank shows the live pressure, and the tank has a drain point for moisture.
Drain the tank regularly. Air carries water vapor, and condensation sitting in a steel tank is the main cause of early failure. Open the drain after a damp or cold run and let the tank empty.
Mounting the horns and compressor
- Choose a dry, sheltered place for the compressor, away from exhaust heat and road spray.
- Mount the horns facing forward with the openings slightly down, so water can run out.
- Use the rubber pads and brackets to isolate vibration. Tighten the mounts without crushing the trumpet bodies.
- Run the air tube with a gentle bend, away from sharp edges and moving suspension parts.
- Wire the compressor through the supplied fuse and relay, with a solid ground to the chassis.
- Test the system in open air before closing any panels. Keep your ears away from the trumpets.
Noise and road rules
150 dB is far above the level of a normal car horn. Use hearing protection when testing, and never point the horns at people or animals at close range. Train horns are restricted or prohibited for on-road use in some states and countries; check local rules before fitting one to a street-driven vehicle.
What is in the box
Four trumpets, the 10 L tank with compressor, air tube, horn mounting bracket, safety mounting bracket, rubber pads, fuse, PTFE tape, M6 bolts, nuts and washers, and a manual.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How loud is the horn?
A: The rated maximum is 150 dB. That is much louder than a standard car horn, so use hearing protection when testing and keep the trumpets away from people at close range.
Q: What does the 110 to 160 psi range mean?
A: The pressure switch restarts the compressor at 110 psi and stops it at 160 psi. The tank refills automatically while the vehicle is running.
Q: Will it fit my vehicle?
A: It fits vehicles with a 12 V electrical system and enough room for the tank and horns. Measure the space before ordering; the 10 L kit needs the most room.
Q: Is the compressor included?
A: Yes. The kit includes a 280 W compressor, the 10 L tank, the four trumpets and the air line.
Q: Can I install it myself?
A: The kit is a bolt-on air system, but it needs a fused power feed, a relay, a ground and a dry mounting spot. If you are not comfortable with vehicle wiring, have it installed by a 12 V accessory shop.
Q: Does it come with a switch?
A: The pressure switch that controls the compressor is included and pre-mounted on the tank. The power switch and the horn button are not included; the installer supplies and wires them.
Q: Can I use it on the road?
A: Train horns are restricted or prohibited for on-road use in some states and countries. Check your local vehicle and noise rules before fitting one to a street-driven vehicle.
Q: How often should I drain the tank?
A: Drain it after damp or cold runs and at least once a month. Condensation inside a steel tank is the main cause of corrosion and valve problems.
Q: What is the difference between the 3 L, 6 L and 10 L kits?
A: The tank and compressor scale up. The 3 L kit is the compact option, the 6 L kit holds about twice the air, and the 10 L kit runs a higher 110 to 160 psi range with a 280 W compressor.
