System Specifications

FACP: EST iO500 FACP Location: Second Floor Data Room System Type: Single-Stage Addressable System Line Voltage: 120VAC NAC Voltage: 24VFWR System Coding: Temporal Strobes Synchronized: Yes, Genesis Date of last known Upgrade: N/A Year Opened: 2016

McKenzie-Highlands School is a junior high school in the Calgary Board of Education. It is located at 25 McKenzie Towne Drive SE, and has a capacity of about 900 students. It was built in 2016, and the fire alarm system is original. It is known for having one of the loudest fire alarm systems in the whole district.

It has an identical design and fire alarm system to Dr. Martha Cohen School.

System Specifications[edit | edit source]

FACP[edit | edit source]

The building is protected by an EST iO500 addressable fire alarm system. The panel is located in room #200 (second floor data room). The system runs EST's Signature addressable protocol, and the system coding is temporal.

Annunciator[edit | edit source]

There is an EST RLCD-C LCD annunciator, as well as an EST RLED-24 LED annunciator, in the main entrance.

Notification Appliances[edit | edit source]

The notification appliances are from Edwards' "Genesis" line of products.

The hallways have Edwards G1R-HDVM horn/strobes (red, wall mount, no marking, set to low-volume/15cd)

The classrooms have Edwards G1R-HD remote horns (red, wall mount, no marking).

The washrooms have Edwards G1R-VM remote strobes (red, wall mount, no marking).

For exterior notification, there is an EST CS405-7A-T weatherproof remote strobe (red, 15/75cd) outside the main entrance.

Initiating Devices[edit | edit source]

Pull Stations[edit | edit source]

Most pull stations are EST SIGA-270 addressable single-action pull stations. These are located in the hallways and the main office.

The gymnasiums and wood shop have Edwards MPSR1-SHTW conventional hazardous-location single-action pull stations, wired to EST SIGA-CT1 addressable monitor modules. These were installed around 2019.

Automatic Detection Devices[edit | edit source]

There are EST SIGA-PS smoke detectors located throughout the school, mounted on SIGA-SB bases.

There are EST "SuperDuct" SIGA-SD addressable photoelectric duct smoke detectors on the air handling units.

Modules[edit | edit source]

There are EST SIGA-CT1 addressable monitor modules supervising the sprinkler system's tamper and flow switches.

There are EST SIGA-CR addressable relays for various purposes.

EOLs[edit | edit source]

There are Edwards EOL-P1 end of line resistor plates on all sprinkler and signal circuits.
