System Specifications (2014-present)

FACP

The library is protected by a Notifier NFS-320C addressable fire alarm system. The panel is located at the main entrance, between two book return slots. The system runs Notifier's FlashScan addressable protocol, and does code 3 in alarm.

Notification Appliances

All notification appliances are System Sensor "SpectrAlert" P1224MCA horn/strobes (red, wall-mount, 15cd). These are mounted on the ceiling throughout the library.

Initiating Devices

Pull Stations

All pull stations are Notifier NBG-12LX addressable dual-action pull stations.

Automatic Detection Devices

There are Notifier FSP-851A addressable photoelectric smoke detectors throughout the library.

Former System Specifications (2004-2014)

Former System Specifications

FACP: Simplex 4010 System Type: Addressable System Line Voltage: 120VAC NAC Voltage: 24VDC Date of last known Upgrade: N/A Year Decommissioned: 2014

FACP

The library was protected by a Simplex 4010 addressable fire alarm system. The panel was located at the main entrance. The system ran Simplex's IDNet addressable protocol, and did code 3 in alarm.

Notification Appliances

The notification appliances were System Sensor "SpectrAlert" P1224MC horn/strobes. These are still in use on the Notifier system, and were likely installed due to customer preference.

Initiating Devices

Pull Stations

All pull stations were Simplex 4099-9001 addressable single-action pull stations.

Automatic Detection Devices

There were Simplex "TrueAlarm" 4098-9714 addressable photoelectric smoke detectors throughout the library.
