Halifax Stanfield International Airport is the largest airport in Atlantic Canada. It serves the entire province of Nova Scotia. It opened in 1960, and was expanded in 1976, 1994, and 1998. The airport was possibly renovated following the 1998 expansion, although this is unconfirmed. The system is from the 2000s.
System Specifications (2000s-present)
FACP
The airport is protected by a Simplex 4100U addressable fire alarm system. The panels are networked, and one is located next to the parkade tunnel. The system model was also confirmed by Johnson Controls, who services this system. The system runs Simplex's IDNet addressable protocol, is two-stage, and is voice evac. The tones are unknown, but the message is likely custom.

The notification appliances vary throughout the terminal. The departures hall, post security, has Simplex 2902-9311 8" speakers (white, ceiling-mount) and 2902-9313 4" square speakers (white, ceiling-mount).
