Electric Cylinder Directories (Click thumbnails to view larger images)

All Electric Cylinder Directories feature cylinders that are 8" in diameter by 43" tall. These cylinders are driven by 115 volt A.C gear motors controlled by electric eyes. When activated by passing a hand in front of the electric eye, the cylinders advance a short distance then stop, giving you access to additional information during your search. The process can be repeated as many times as needed.

Models feature:

Rotating cylinders controlled by electric eyes
Switches control the motor functions and are mounted inside the window glass

Housing unit has a 5 component Sto Classic Exterior System applied to the surface of 14 gauge sand blasted steel

Finish coat is a rough troweled application

Name area can be accessed through the window glass, which can be removed without difficulty

Housing needs to be installed and anchored down to a concrete base pad; electrical system is 115 A.C and needs to be wired to a 10 amp disconnect and wired to local codes.

The above models were designed to accommodate larger cemeteries. Windy Prairie also offers a Mechanical (manual) Directory with Rotating Cylinder Displays for medium to large sized cemeteries without access to electricity. The mechanical display also features four rotating 8” cylinders controlled and driven by four external hand knobs. Theses knobs are below the cylinders and are easily turned by hand to access the information stored on the cylinders. Mechanical Directories are made with the same care and durable materials as Electric Directories.
