System Specifications
- Note: This is how the system looked as of January 17, 2014 and it may not reflect how the system looks today.
FACP
The fire alarm panel is a HUGE two-stage Edwards 6500 fire alarm system. There are two panels, one is just used for additional zones. They are somewhere around the lobby, and are original to the hotel. The system does short blasts every few seconds in first stage, and continuous in general alarm as said by a guest directory in the "If You Hear An Alarm" section of a safety page. It says "This hotel is protected by a two-stage fire alarm system. If you hear a loud, continuous ringing from alarm bells, you must evacuate the building."
Notification Appliances
The main notification appliances are the original Edwards 439D-10AWC vibrating bells from 1987. Most of them are behind metal grills, which is seen in the lobby and hotel room floors. Some bells, like in the parkade do not have metal grills. A 439D-10AWC broke down in the 2000s on the 3rd floor and was replaced by a Notifier KMS-6-24A motor bell, again, behind a grill. Near the panel itself, there is an Edwards 439D-10AWC and a possibly Mircom or Amseco 6" motor bell right next to it. It is unknown if one of them is in use or both ring at the same time.
Initiating Devices
Pull Stations
Although two-stage, the pull stations are single stage, so two initiating devices have to be activated to go into full alarm. Most of the pull stations were Edwards 275-C111, although there were a few Edwards 270-SPC and Edwards 270-SPO pull stations from the 1990s.
Automatic Detection Devices
The smoke detectors were Edwards EDW1451A.
