FACP[edit | edit source]
The building is protected by a Mircom FX-2000 conventional fire alarm system. The panel is located after the entrance, and is a two-bay cabinet. It was installed in 2010 following a renovation. The system coding is temporal.
Notification Appliances[edit | edit source]
The notification appliances are mostly System Sensor SSM24-10A motor bells (10" gong) on Amseco RSB24-153075 strobe plates (rebranded by Mircom, 15cd).
There are also Amseco MSB-10-PV4 motor bells (10" gong) on Amseco RSB24-153075 strobe plates (rebranded by Mircom, 15cd). The strobe plates were installed in 2012 onto the existing bells.
In the lobby, there is one General Signal MB10-24 motor bell (10" gong) as a deficiency replacement.
The fitness room has an original Mirtone 74306 vibrating bells (10" gong), while the third floor has a newer variant.
