510 77 Ave SE is a large single floor multi-use building in Fairview, SE Calgary. It was built in 1964, though the system is not original. This building has the Calgary Farmers' Market, Third Academy (a school), and The Shooting Edge, all with different notification appliances, but on the same system. The system is serviced by Viking Fire Protection Inc.
System Specifications
FACP
The fire alarm panels are two networked Notifier NFS-320C, installed in 2011 when the Calgary Farmers' Market was moved into this building. The annunciator is in the entrance of the farmers' market, but the panel itself is not visible, it's in an electrical room. The other panel supervises The Shooting Edge.
Notification Appliances
The notification appliances vary per outlet. The Calgary Farmer's Market has System Sensor SpectrAlert Advanced P2R (red, wall) and PC2W (white, ceiling) horn/strobes installed in 2011. The Shooting Edge has System Sensor SpectrAlert P1224MC horn/strobes, installed in 2000. Third Academy, however, has Mircom FHS-240R horn/strobes. For outdoor notification, there is a System Sensor P2RK (red, wall) weatherproof horn/strobe. When the system goes into alarm, all horns do code-3, and the Mircom horn/strobes are set to the electromechanical tone. The System Sensor alarms are synchronized with each other, while the Mircom horn/strobes are also synchronized, but independent from the System Sensor, which means that the two brands have their own sync modules.
Initiating Devices
Pull Stations
The pull stations in the farmers' market are Notifier NBG-12LX, installed in 2011. The Shooting Edge has a mix of Notifier MPS-950B and NFM-950B pull stations. Third Academy, however, has Tyco/Grinnell MS-401.
Automatic Detection Devices
There are Notifier FSP-851 smoke detectors in the farmer's market. Third Academy has no detectors whatsoever, which is almost certainly a fire code violation, however it is an old building.
Bonus Information
There are two Potter H-1224R horns in Third Academy for a mock fire alarm system, only used for fire drills. However, they are not part of the Notifier system, and are on a 24VDC power supply and a light switch. They are set to march time broadband.
