TELUS World of Science is a science centre in Edmonton, AB. It is located at 11211 142 St NW, near Coronation Park, Edmonton, AB. The facility was built in 1984 as Edmonton Space Science Centre, then it was expanded in 2001 as the Odyssium. In 2005, the name was changed to Telus World of Science. The fire alarm system is not original, however some notification appliances may be. The centre has many facilities, including an IMAX theatre.

FACP

The facility is protected by an Edwards EST3 conventional fire alarm system. There are many panels, and one has been spotted in the Discovery Gallery entrance. They were installed in 2012 as replacement panels for an older variant, which likely replaced an EST2. The system coding is most likely temporal.

Annunciators

There is an EST 3-LCDANN annunciator at the entrance.

Notification Appliances

The notification appliances mainly consist of General Signal MB10-24 motor bells on EST "Integrity" 403-5A-R strobe plates. They were installed in 2001, when it was expanded.

In an exhibit space, there are the mentioned bell/strobes, as well as an EST "Integrity" 202-5A-T remote strobe.

In some exhibit areas, there are Edwards MB10-24 motor bells, mostly seen on EST 403-5A-R strobe plates, although some are installed remotely.

In the IMAX theatre, there is an Edwards 439D-10AWC vibrating bell, and near the entrance of that theatre, there is an Edwards 439D-10AWC vibrating bell, with an Edwards 802-2B remote strobe next to it.

Near the DOW Computer Lab, there is a Potter MBA-624 motor bell, as a deficiency replacement.

Initiating Devices

Pull Stations

The pull stations are mostly Edwards 270-SPO conventional single action pull stations.

Automatic Detection Devices

None noticed.

EOLs

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