Safeway Canada is a chain of grocery stores. They are owned by Sobeys, and have locations across the country. This particular store is located at 99 Crowfoot Crescent NW Calgary, AB, and was built in 1984 as a Food For Less. It was re-opened in 2000 as Safeway and most recently underwent a renovation in 2020. The fire alarm system was installed during the renovation.
System Specifications (2020-present)
FACP
The building is protected by a Simplex 4100ES addressable fire alarm system. The panel is located in the main entrance vestibule, and is equipped with InfoAlarm Command Center. The CPU (4100-9212) was replaced in 2020, as the system was converted to be fully addressable when the renovations happened. The cabinet was kept, and was installed in 2015, as the system was conventional prior to renovations. The system runs Simplex’s IDNet addressable protocol, and the system coding is temporal.
Notification Appliances
All of the notification appliances are from Simplex’s “TrueAlert” line of products. Throughout the store, there are Simplex 4906-9127 horn/strobes (red, wall-mount, set to 15cd). They are in the former horn/strobes’ places, and some were installed in new locations for additional coverage. In the low ceiling area with tables, there is a Simplex 4906-9101 remote strobe (red, wall-mount, set to 15cd), installed for visual coverage as the horn/strobe is not facing the tables. For exterior notification, there is a Simplex 4906-9105 weatherproof remote strobe (red, wall-mount, set to 75cd) outside the main entrance.
All of these horn/strobes and strobes were installed in spring-summer 2020, replacing EST “PowerSaver Integrity” horn/strobes, see below for more information.
Initiating Devices
Pull Stations
All of the pull stations are Simplex 4099-9004 addressable single-action pull stations. They are installed in all the former pull stations’ spaces, and replaced a mix of conventional pull stations to make the system addressable.
Automatic Detection Devices
There are most likely Simplex 4098-9734 addressable fixed/rate-of-rise heat detectors installed. The storefront is protected by waterflow.
Modules
There are Simplex 4090-9001 addressable monitor modules monitoring the system's sprinkler flow switches and tamper switches.
Former System Specifications (early 1990s-2020)
FACP
The store was protected by a Simplex 4100ES conventional fire alarm system. The panel was located in the main entrance vestibule, and was equipped with InfoAlarm Command Center. It replaced an Edwards 6616 installed in the early 1990s in 2015 after a main board failure. The system had 16 zones in use. The system coding was continuous; the horn/strobes were self-coded to temporal and self-synchronized. The system was replaced in 2020 to be fully addressable, and the cabinet was kept as the control unit was only replaced.
Notification Appliances
All notification appliances were EST “PowerSaver Integrity” 757H-15PS horn/strobes (red, wall-mount, 15cd). They were installed in 2000 following the conversion to Safeway. By produce, there was a backbox that was off the wall and hanging. The horn/strobes were all replaced in 2020.
Initiating Devices
Pull Stations
Due to the age of the store and the amount of deficiency replacements, there was a wide variety of pull stations.
At the east entrance, there were two Edwards 275-C111 conventional pull stations, which were installed when the former 6616 was. At the main entrance, there was a Simplex MS-301C conventional pull station, installed in the 2000s as a deficiency replacement. By the juice, and in most of the backroom, there were Tyco/Grinnell MS-401 conventional pull stations; the one by the juice as a deficiency replacement for a Notifier MPS-950B conventional pull station in 2018. At the entrance to the backroom near Aisle 6, there was a Mircom MS-401 conventional pull station, installed in 2018 as a deficiency replacement for a Tyco/Grinnell MS-401. The backroom also contained one Edwards 270-SPO conventional pull station.
Automatic Detection Devices
Heat detectors were present, but information is not available.
