System Specifications

FACP

The building is protected by an Edwards EST3 addressable fire alarm system. The panels are located in the CACF room, which is located on the main floor. The system runs EST's Signature addressable protocol, and is equipped with voice evacuation. The system is configured for two-stage operation, however the messages and/or tones are unknown at this time.

Notification Appliances

All notification appliances except for one are from EST's "Genesis" line of products.

Common Areas (Entrance and Second Floor)

Most notification appliances are EST GC-S7 speakers (white, ceiling-mount, no lettering, set to 1 watt) mounted high up on the ceiling. One side of the second floor has EST G1-VM remote strobes (white, wall-mount, no lettering, set to 15cd); the other side has EST G4-S7 speakers (white, wall-mount, no lettering, set to 15cd). There is an EST "Integrity" 757-1A-S70W speaker (white, 70V) near the main entrance.

Complex

The notification appliances are a mix of EST GC-S7VM speaker/strobes (white, ceiling-mount, no lettering, set to 15cd, 1/2 watt) and EST GC-S7 speakers (white, ceiling-mount, no lettering, set to 1/2 watt).

+15 Skywalk

The notification appliances in the skywalk are EST GC-S7VM speaker/strobes (white, ceiling-mount, no lettering, set to 15cd, 1/2 watt).

Initiating Devices

Pull Stations

All pull stations are EST SIGA-270P addressable two-stage pull stations.

Automatic Detection Devices

All smoke detectors are EST SIGA2-PS addressable photoelectric smoke detectors with the exception of one EST SIGA-PS addressable photoelectric smoke detector. All detectors are mounted on SIGA-SB bases. There is also a sprinkler system with waterflow detection.

Modules

There are EST SIGA-WTM addressable monitor modules supervising the sprinkler system’s tamper and flow switches.
