NAC Voltage: 24VDC

System Coding: Temporal

Strobes Synchronized: No
Date of last known Upgrade: 2021
Year Opened: 1978

622 5th Avenue SW is a multi-use 5-story office building located in the Commercial district of Downtown Calgary, Alberta, Canada. The building opened in 1978, but the system is mostly from 2002.

System Specifications

FACP

The building is protected by a Notifier AFP-200C addressable fire alarm system. The panel is located in a custodian's closet on the first floor. The system runs Notifier's CLIP addressable protocol, and the system coding is temporal. This panel replaced an Edwards Custom 6500.

Annunciators

There is a Notifier LCD-80 in the main entrance vestibule. It is mounted in the 6500’s cabinet.

Notification Appliances

All areas except the parkade have System Sensor "SpectrAlert Advance" PC2WA horn/strobes (white, ceiling-mount, set to 15cd). The parkade has System Sensor P2RA horn/strobes (red, wall-mount, set to 15cd).

Initiating Devices

Pull Stations

Most pull stations are Edwards 270-SPO conventional single-action pull stations. Some areas have Notifier MPS-950B conventional single-action pull stations as deficiency replacements. The addressable setup of this system is unknown at this time.

Automatic Detection Devices

There are Notifier FSP-851A addressable photoelectric smoke detectors located throughout the facility, mounted on System Sensor B210LPA low-profile bases. The mechanical rooms and some other areas have FDD CR135 conventional fixed/rate-of-rise heat detectors.

 ==System Specifications==
 ====FACP====
-The building is protected by a Notifier AFP-200C addressable fire alarm system.  It replaced an Edwards Custom 6500 in 2002.  The panel is located in a janitorial closet on the first floor.  The system does code 3 in alarm.  The system runs on CLIP, Notifier’s older initiation protocol.

 ====Notification Appliances====
-The notification appliances on the above-ground floors are all System Sensor “SpectrAlert Advance” PC2WA horn/strobes (white, ceiling-mount).  They are set on code-3, medium volume, and 15 candela.  The parkade, however, has System Sensor “SpectrAlert Advance” P2RA horn/strobes (red, wall-mount).  They are also set on code 3, medium volume, and 15 candela.  The system is not synchronized, as the AFP-200 has no sync options, and there are no sync modules on the system.  However, it is grandfathered in, and thus not a code violation.

 ====Pull Stations====
-Most pull stations are third-generation Edwards 270-SPO single-action “teardrop” pull stations (no FIRE ALARM, classic shield), original to the building.  Some have been replaced with Notifier MPS-950B single-action “tab” pull stations, installed after 2002.  All pull stations have Notifier MMX-101A addressable modules wired to them, however this is unconfirmed, and they could be FMM-101A.

 ====Automatic Detection Devices====
-There are Notifier FSP-851A addressable photoelectric smoke detectors located throughout the facility.  The mechanical and electrical rooms, however, have Fire Detection Devices CR-165 fixed/rate-of-rise conventional heat detectors, which replaced Edwards 280B-PL heat detectors due to a recall.
