System Specifications (2021-present)

FACP

The building is protected by a Notifier NFS2-3030C addressable fire alarm system. The panel is located in the custodian's office. The system runs Notifier's FlashScan addressable protocol, and the system coding is temporal.

Annunciators

There is a Notifier LCD-160 LCD annunciator in the main entrance vestibule.

Notification Appliances

All notification appliances in the main school are Edwards MB10-24 motor bells (10" gong) on EST "Integrity" 403-5A-R strobe plates (15cd), leftover from the previous system.

The 2021 expansion has Notifier KMS-10-24A motor bells (10" gong) mounted on Wheelock RSSP-24MCW strobe plates (red, set to 15cd).

There are System Sensor "L-Series" SCRLA-E remote strobes (red, ceiling-mount, English only, set to 15cd) in the annex to the main school and in each expansion washroom.

For exterior notification, there are original Amseco BZ-54VT motor horns (red) around the perimeter, but it is likely they are decomissioned.

Initiating Devices

Pull Stations

All pull stations except for the gymnasium are Notifier NBG-12LX addressable dual-action pull stations.

The gymnasium has Notifier MPS-950B conventional single-action pull stations, wired to Notifier FMM-101A addressable monitor modules.

Automatic Detection Devices

There are Notifier FSP-951A addressable photoelectric smoke detectors in all stairwells and by each set of fire doors.

All offices, storage rooms and other rooms have Notifier FST-951RA addressable 135°F fixed-temperature/rate-of-rise heat detectors.

All detectors are mounted on System Sensor B300A-6 bases.

Modules

There are Notifier FMM-1A addressable monitor modules supervising the sprinkler system's tamper and flow switches.

There are Notifier FRM-1A addressable relay modules for fire door closing and HVAC shutdown.

EOLs

There are Notifier EOL-CR end-of-line resistors on all sprinkler and signal circuits in the expansion.

There are Edwards EOL-P1 end-of-line resistors on all sprinkler and signal circuits for the main school.
