The Crowfoot Library is a public library located at 8665 Nose Hill Drive Northwest, in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. It is part of the Calgary Public Library. The building opened in 2004, and the fire alarm system is mostly from 2014. All of the notification appliances are original.

System Specifications (2014-present)

FACP

The building is protected by a Notifier NFS-320C addressable fire alarm system. The panel is located in the main entrance vestibule, between two book return slots. The system runs Notifier's FlashScan addressable protocol, and the system coding is temporal.

Notification Appliances

All notification appliances are the original System Sensor "SpectrAlert" P2415A horn/strobes (red, wall-mount, 15cd). These are mounted on the ceiling throughout the library.

Initiating Devices

Pull Stations

All pull stations are Notifier NBG-12LX addressable dual-action pull stations.

Automatic Detection Devices

There are Notifier FSP-851A addressable photoelectric smoke detectors throughout the library, mounted on System Sensor B210LPA low-profile bases. There is also a sprinkler system with waterflow detection.
