Maple Ridge School is an elementary school located in the Maple Ridge neighborhood of Southeast Calgary. The school has a capacity of approximately 600 students, and was built in 1967. The school received its most recent fire alarm upgrade in 2015.

System Specifications (2015-present)

FACP

The building is protected by a Simplex 4010 addressable fire alarm system. The panel location is unknown. The system runs Simplex's IDNet addressable protocol, and the system coding is temporal.

Notification Appliances

All notification appliances are Wheelock MT-12/24R remote horns (red, wall-mount) on Wheelock RSSP-24MCW strobe plates. The horns are set to horn, and the strobes are set to 15cd.

Initiating Devices

Pull Stations

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

Automatic Detection Devices

There are Simplex "TrueAlarm" 4098-9714 addressable photoelectric smoke detectors located throughout the facility, mounted on Simplex 4098-9792 addressable bases.

System Specifications (previous system, late 1980s-2015)

System Specifications

FACP: Simplex 4002 System Type: Conventional System Line Voltage: 120VAC NAC Voltage: 24VDC Date of last known Upgrade: N/A Year Decomissioned: 2015

NOTE: This system is unconfirmed, as it is based off ThePurpleMage's memory, and the system at the neighboring R.T. Alderman School.

FACP

The previous panel was likely a 16-zone Simplex 4002-8001 conventional fire alarm panel. The system likely did continuous in alarm.

Notification Appliances

The previous notification appliances were Simplex 2901-9833 mechanical horns on Simplex 2903-9101 strobe plates.

Initiating Devices

Pull Stations

The previous pull stations were likely Simplex 2099-9901 "T-bar" conventional pull stations.

Automatic Detection Devices

There were Simplex 2098-9110 ionization smoke detectors throughout the school.

 ====Notification Appliances====
-All notification appliances are Wheelock MT-12/24-R multitone horns on Wheelock RSSP-24MCW-FR multi-candela strobe plates. These notification appliances were selected due to the large footprint of the previous devices, and to mount on the existing backboxes. The horns are set to code 3 horn (electromechanical), and the strobes are likely set on 15 candela. As with the panel, the locations of the devices are unknown.
