NOTE: This system is in the process of being upgraded, and this information is no longer accurate.

FACP

The building is protected by an Edwards Custom 6500 conventional fire alarm system. The panel is located in the main electrical room. The system coding is continuous.

Annunciators

There is an Edwards annunciator at the main entrance.

Notification Appliances

Most notification appliances are Edwards “Durabel” 6100D vibrating bells (10” gong). The additions have Edwards 439D-10AWC vibrating bells (10” gong); these are also installed as deficiency replacements in the original portion. There are also Edwards MB10-24 motor bells (10” gong) in some areas as deficiency replacements.

Initiating Devices

Pull Stations

Most pull stations are the original Edwards 270-SPO conventional single-action pull stations. Some areas have Edwards 270-SPOE conventional single-action pull stations as deficiency replacements. There is one GE 270-SPO conventional single-action pull station in a portable classroom.

Automatic Detection Devices

There are Edwards 281C conventional rate-of-rise/fixed heat detectors throughout the building. Some areas have Mircom 5601A conventional rate-of-rise/fixed heat detectors as deficiency replacements. The additions have Edwards 6250C conventional ionization smoke detectors.
