Notification Appliances

The original notification appliances were Edwards 439D-10AWC vibrating bells (10" gong).

Pull Stations

The pull stations were and still are the Edwards 270-SPO. These are the only devices that were continued to be used on the new 4007ES.

Bonus Information

One of the original fire bells (Edwards 439D-10AWC) was wired to a doorbell button as well as the EST 6616, and when the doorbell button was pressed, the bell would ring softly to indicate a delivery. It was probably on 12VDC. It is unknown if the horn/strobe there goes off for deliveries, but it is in the same place as the bell that was there, as all the bells were replaced in 2017.
