System Specifications

FACP: EST QuickStart QS1 FACP Location: Main Entrance Vestibule System Type: Single-Stage Addressable System Line Voltage: 120VAC NAC Voltage: 24VFWR System Coding: Temporal Strobes Synchronized: Yes, Self-Sync Date of last known Upgrade: 2016 Year Opened: 1991

Calgary Co-op is a chain of grocery stores in the Calgary area. This particular store is located at #100 250 Shawville Blvd SE, Calgary, AB. It was built in 1991, and renovated in about 2016. The current fire alarm system is from 2016, and the previous system was from around 2006.

System Specifications (2016-present)[edit | edit source]

Despite the previous system being almost exactly the same, every device was replaced with a newer variant.

FACP[edit | edit source]

The building is protected by an EST QuickStart QS1 addressable fire alarm system. The panel is located in the main entrance vestibule. The system runs EST's Signature addressable protocol, and the system coding is temporal.

Booster Panels[edit | edit source]

There is an Edwards BPS6A booster power supply next to the main FACP.

Notification Appliances[edit | edit source]

The notification appliances are all from EST's "Genesis" line of products.

Most notification appliances are EST G1R-HDVM horn/strobes (red, wall-mount, set to 15cd, no marking).

There are also some EST GC-HDVM horn/strobes (white, ceiling mount, no marking, set to 30cd).

Initiating Devices[edit | edit source]

Pull Stations[edit | edit source]

All pull stations are EST SIGA-270 addressable single-action pull stations.

Automatic Detection Devices[edit | edit source]

There are EST SIGA-PS addressable photoelectric smoke detectors in some areas, mounted on SIGA-SB bases.

Modules[edit | edit source]

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

EOLs[edit | edit source]

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

Former System Specifications (2006-present)[edit | edit source]

-Calgary Co-op is a chain of grocery stores in the Calgary area.  This particular store was built in 1991, and renovated in about 2016. T The renovation gives the store a very weird, darkish vibe.  It's not very nice inside, and user YYCsFireAlarmNimrod would not recommend shopping here.  The current fire alarm system is from 2016, and the previous system was from around 2006.  No details are known about the original system.

 ====FACP====
-The current fire alarm panel is an EST QuickStart QS1 from 2016.  It replaced a 2006 variant following a renovation.  It is unknown why they replaced the panel with another identical panel in the same spot, as they could've saved money by just wiring the new devices into the original panel. This shows that the interiors were nimrods. The system does code-3 in alarm, as this is the only coding that the notification appliances can do without significant modifications.

-The previous fire alarm panel was also an EST QuickStart QS1, but from 2006.  It is unknown why this panel was replaced in 2016.  Possibly a CPU fault during reprogramming?
