Banff Gondola is a tourist attraction in Banff, AB. It is a gondola ride on Sulphur Mountain with an amazing view. The main building is from 1997-98, but has had the current system since 2016, though all initiating devices amd most notification appliances are original. This page covers the main building. For the upper terminal, see Banff Gondola Upper Terminal.
System Specifications
FACP
The building is protected by a Notifier NFS2-640C conventional fire alarm system. The panel is located in the Starbucks, next to an emergency exit and near a fireplace. The panel has two zone cards in it; a Notifier XP6-MA 6-zone smoke detector card, as well as a Notifier XP-10MA 10-zone card. The system coding is likely continuous. This panel replaced an Edwards 6616.
Notification Appliances
Most notification appliances are Edwards 439D-6AWC vibrating bells (6" gong). These can be found in three different setups: Remotely, with no strobe, on an Edwards 403-5A-R strobe plate (15cd), and with an Edwards 202-5A-T remote strobe (15cd) next to it. By the main entrance, there is an Edwards MB6-24 motor bell (6" gong) as a deficiency replacement. Some areas have Edwards 202-5A-T remote strobes, and the gondola boarding area has an Edwards 439D-10AWC vibrating bell (10" gong), with a 202-5A-T strobe next to it.
Initiating Devices
Pull Stations
All pull stations are Edwards 270-SPO conventional single-action pull stations.
Automatic Detection Devices
There are Edwards EDW1451A ionization smoke detectors throughout the building, as well as some System Sensor 5601A 135-degree fixed/rate-of-rise heat detectors in the main lobby, restrooms, and other areas.
Recent Replacements
In 2021, the Edwards 280B-PL heat detectors were replaced with System Sensor 5601A heat detectors, due to a recall affecting the Edwards detectors.
