System Specifications

FACP: Edwards iO64 FACP Location: Unknown System Type: Single-Stage Conventional System Line Voltage: 120VAC NAC Voltage: 24VFWR System Coding: Temporal Strobes Synchronized: Yes, Genesis Date of last known Upgrade: 2022 Year Opened: 1973

Calgary Co-op is a chain of member-owned grocery stores across Calgary, Alberta, Canada. They have stores throughout the city, and in surrounding towns and cities such as Airdrie and High River. This particular store is located at 5505 Shaganappi Trail Northwest, in Calgary. The store opened in 1973, and the fire alarm system was installed in 2022.

System Specifications (2022-present)[edit | edit source]

FACP[edit | edit source]

The building is protected by an Edwards iO64 conventional fire alarm system. The panel location is unknown. The system coding is temporal.

Annunciators[edit | edit source]

There is an Edwards RLCD-C annunciator paired with an Edwards RLED24 annunciator at the Health entrance.

Notification Appliances[edit | edit source]

All notification appliances are Edwards “Genesis” G4AVRF horn/strobes (red, wall-mount). One is installed on a Wheelock RSSP-24MCW strobe plate, which is disconnected.

Initiating Devices[edit | edit source]

Pull Stations[edit | edit source]

All pull stations but one are Edwards 270-SPO conventional single-action pull stations, with one being original at the front. The rest were installed in 1996.

There is one Edwards 275-SPO conventional single-action pull station in the backroom.

Automatic Detection Devices[edit | edit source]

None noticed.

EOLs[edit | edit source]

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

Former System Specifications (1996-2022)[edit | edit source]

Former System Specifications

FACP: EST ESA2000 FACP Location: Unknown System Type: Single-Stage Conventional System Line Voltage: 120VAC NAC Voltage: 24VDC System Coding: Continuous Strobes Synchronized: No Date of last known Upgrade: 2010s Year Installed: 1996 Year Decommissioned: 2022

FACP[edit | edit source]

The store was protected by an EST ESA2000 conventional fire alarm system. The panel location was unknown. The system coding was likely continuous.

Annunciators[edit | edit source]

There was an EST annunciator in the health entrance, model to be confirmed.

Notification Appliances[edit | edit source]

Most of the notification appliances were Edwards 439D-6AWC vibrating bells (6” gong) on EST 403-5A-R (15cd) strobe plates.

There was one Notifier KMS-6-24A motor bell (6” gong) on a Wheelock RSSP-24MCW (red, wall-mount, multi-candela) strobe plate near the entrance as a deficiency replacement. The Wheelock strobe plate still exists, but is disconnected.

Initiating Devices[edit | edit source]

Pull Stations[edit | edit source]

All pull stations but one are Edwards 270-SPO conventional single-action pull stations, with one being original at the front. The rest were installed in 1996.

There is one Edwards 275-SPO conventional single-action pull station in the backroom.

These remain on the current system.

Automatic Detection Devices[edit | edit source]

Not available, there was a sprinkler system.

 ==== FACP ====
+The store was protected by an EST ESA2000 conventional fire alarm system. The panel location was unknown. The system coding was likely continuous.
-The fire alarm panel was not visible, and there were no annunciators. It is not original, but is probably some Notifier or EST.
+===== Annunciators =====
+There was an EST annunciator in the health entrance, model to be confirmed.
 ==== Notification Appliances ====
+Most of the notification appliances were Edwards 439D-6AWC vibrating bells (6” gong) on EST 403-5A-R (15cd) strobe plates.
-The notification appliances are mainly Edwards 439D-6AWC vibrating bells on EST "Integrity" 403-5A-R strobe plates, installed in the 1996 renovation. One bell/strobe was replaced with a Notifier KMS-6-24A motor bell on a Wheelock RSSP-24MCW strobe plate in the 2000s-2010s.
+There was one Notifier KMS-6-24A motor bell (6” gong) on a Wheelock RSSP-24MCW (red, wall-mount, multi-candela) strobe plate near the entrance as a deficiency replacement. The Wheelock strobe plate still exists, but is disconnected.
 === Initiating Devices ===
 ==== Pull Stations ====
+All pull stations but one are Edwards 270-SPO conventional single-action pull stations, with one being original at the front. The rest were installed in 1996.
-The pull stations are all Edwards 270-SPO pull stations. Most are from 1996, but there is one original first-generation one which was probably new old stock (FIRE ALARM at top, classic shield).
+There is one Edwards 275-SPO conventional single-action pull station in the backroom.
+These remain on the current system.
 ==== Automatic Detection Devices ====
+Not available, there was a sprinkler system.
-None noticed.
