Willway Elementary is an elementary school located at 2939 Mt. Wells Drive, in Victoria, British Columbia, Canada. The school opened in 1977, and has been expanded several times; the latest being 1991. The fire alarm system was fully upgraded in 2024.
System Specifications (2024-present)[edit | edit source]
FACP[edit | edit source]
The building is protected by a Notifier NFS-320C addressable fire alarm system. The panel is located in the main electrical room. The system runs Notifier's FlashScan addressable protocol, and the system coding is temporal.
Annunciators[edit | edit source]
There is a Notifier LCD2-80 LCD annunciator paired with two ACM-24AT LED annunciators at the main entrance, retrofitted on the old Edwards 456 cabinet.
Notification Appliances[edit | edit source]
All notification appliances are System Sensor "L-Series" P2RLA horn/strobes (red, wall-mount, set to electromechanical, 15cd). These were installed in place of the bells.
Initiating Devices[edit | edit source]
Pull Stations[edit | edit source]
Most pull stations are Notifier NBG-12LX addressable dual-action pull stations.
There are Notifier N-MPS-SA addressable single-action pull stations in the gymnasium, as they are metal and more durable.
