System Specifications (1981 building)
FACP
The building is protected by an Edwards EST3 addressable fire alarm system. The panel location is unknown. It replaced an EST2 in 2013 due to water damage from the 2013 floods. The system runs EST’s Signature addressable protocol, and is configured for two-stage operation. The system coding is 20BPM in first stage, followed by temporal in general alarm.
Annunciators
There was an Edwards EST3-LCDANN annunciator in the now-demolished Hall A entrance vestibule.
Notification Appliances
Most notification appliances are Edwards MB10-24 motor bells (10” gong) mounted on Edwards 403-5A-R strobe plates (15cd). One showroom, as well as one corridor contain Edwards 439D-10AWC vibrating bells (10” gong) on a 403-5A-R strobe plates (15cd), leftover from the EST2, which was most likely installed in 2000. There was one Edwards 439D-10AWC vibrating bell (10” gong, white label) by an entrance as a deficiency replacement in 2018; the strobe plate remained, this particular one was near Hall A. There is an Edwards 439D-10AWC vibrating bell (10” gong) outside the building.
