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 building is protected by a networked Notifier NFS-320C fire alarm system. The system is a NotiFireNet network, and has an NCA-2 network control annunciator mounted next to the main panel. The two panels were installed in 2011 when the Calgary Farmers' Market was moved into this building. There are Notifier LCD-80 annunciators at all entrances to the farmers' market, but the panels are not visible. One is in an electrical room, and the other is located in a corridor between the Farmer's Market and The Shooting Edge.
Notification Appliances
The notification appliances vary per outlet. The Calgary Farmer's Market has System Sensor "SpectrAlert Advance" P2RA (red, wall) and PC2WA (white, ceiling) horn/strobes installed in 2011. The Shooting Edge has System Sensor "SpectrAlert" P1224MCA horn/strobes, installed in 2000. Third Academy, however, has Mircom FHS-240R horn/strobes. For outdoor notification, there is a System Sensor P2RKA (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. The building is also protected by a sprinkler system with waterflow detection, so other areas do not have detectors.
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.
