FACP

The building is protected by a Simplex 4007ES conventional fire alarm system. The panel is located in the main entrance vestibule. The system coding is temporal.

This panel replaced an Edwards 6616.

Notification Appliances

All notification appliances are Simplex "TrueAlert" 4906-9127 horn/strobes (red, wall-mount, set to 15cd).

These replaced Edwards 439D-10AWC vibrating bells (10" gong).

Initiating Devices

Pull Stations

All pull stations are Edwards 270-SPO conventional single-action pull stations.

Automatic Detection Devices

None noticed.

EOLs

There are Simplex 2081-9040C end-of-line resistor plates on all circuits.

Bonus Information

One of the original fire bells (Edwards 439D-10AWC) was wired to a doorbell button as well as the EST 6616, and when the doorbell button was pressed, the bell would ring softly to indicate a delivery. It was probably on 12VDC. It is unknown if the horn/strobe there goes off for deliveries, but it is in the same place as the bell that was there, as all the bells were replaced in 2017.
