System Specifications

FACP

The building is protected by an EST3 addressable fire alarm system. The panel is located at the main entrance. The system runs EST's Signature-series addressable protocol, and does code 3 in alarm.

Notification Appliances

Most notification appliances are EST "Genesis" G1R-HDVM horn/strobes (red, wall-mount, set to 15cd), mounted on EST G1RT-FIRE trim plates. The Cretaceous Gardens have EST "Genesis" WG4RF-HVMC weatherproof horn/strobes (red, wall-mount).

Initiating Devices

Pull Stations

All pull stations are EST SIGC-270B addressable bilingual single-action pull stations.

Automatic Detection Devices

There are EST SIGA2-PS addressable photoelectric smoke detectors throughout the building.

Former System Specifications

System Specifications
FACP: Siemens MXL
System Type: Addressable (Two-Stage)
System Line Voltage: 120VAC
NAC Voltage: 24VDC
Date of last known Upgrade: N/A
Year Decommissioned: 2016

FACP

The building was protected by a Siemens MXL addressable fire alarm system. The panel was located near the main entrance. The system was two-stage, and did 20BPM in first stage, followed by code 3 in general alarm.

Notification Appliances

All notification appliances on the MXL were Siemens U-MMT-MCS-W-B multi tone horn/strobes. They were replaced in 2016 with Genesis horn/strobes.

Initiating Devices

Pull Stations

The pull stations were Siemens HMS-2S addressable two-stage pull stations.
