System Specifications
FACP
The fire alarm control unit is a Mircom FX-2000 in a BBX-1072A cabinet. Despite being an addressable panel, the system is mostly conventional but the main and second floors have been converted to addressable. It was likely installed in the early 2000s. From the devices installed throughout, it appears to have replaced an Original Edwards 6500. The addressable parts of this system run Mircom's CLIP addressable protocol, and the system coding is continuous.
Annunciators
There is one RAX-LCD in the front lobby. Mounted to the front door of the old 6500 annunciator cabinet.
Notification Appliances
There is a mix of mostly Mircom BL-10A and BL-10B motor bells with a few BL-6A/B (6-inch) motor bells mixed in.
Initiating Devices
Pull Stations
==Conventional==
About 80% of the conventional pull stations are original Edwards 270-SPO (single action, break glass) with the original solid glass rod. There are a few Mircom MS-401 (single-action) replacements.
==Addressable==
There are Mircom MS-401AD (single-action) addressable pull stations installed throughout the 1st and 2nd floors
Automatic Detection Devices
==Conventional==
There is an equal variety of Edwards 280 series and FDD CR-135 fixed/rate of rise heat detectors installed. Along with several Mirtone (model?) bi-metal type self-restoring heat detectors.
==Addressable==
There are of Mircom MIX-2251AP (photo) detectors installed on the 3rd floor. One MIX-5351RAPA (rate of rise) heat detector recently installed at one of the tenant entrances. Along with a Mircom MIX-5251RAPA (rate of rise) heat detector in the loading dock, the main telephone room and one in the main electrical room. Finally, there is a MIX-5251HAPA (200°F) addressable heat detector in the generator room.
