HI Lake Louise Alpine Centre

HI Lake Louise Alpine Centre is a hostel located at 203 Village Rd, Lake Louise, AB. It was originally built in 1990 as the Canadian Alpine Centre. A second building was built in 1995. The fire alarm systems in these buildings were upgraded around 2017.

Notification Appliances

All notification appliances are System Sensor “SpectrAlert Advance” P2RA horn/strobes (red, wall-mount, set to 15cd).

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 located throughout the building, as well as Notifier FST-851A addressable thermal heat detectors in some areas. All detectors are mounted on System Sensor B210LPA bases.

EOLs

There are Notifier EOL-CR end of line resistor plates on all signal circuits.

Former System Specifications (1990-2017)

System Specifications

FACP

The building was protected by an Edwards 6616 conventional fire alarm system. The panel location was unknown, and the model was unconfirmed. The system coding was continuous.

Notification Appliances

All notification appliances were Edwards 439D-6AWC vibrating bells (6” gong).

Initiating Devices

Pull Stations

All pull stations were Edwards 270-SPO conventional pull stations.

Automatic Detection Devices

There were Edwards 6250C ionization smoke detectors located throughout. There were also Edwards 281C rate-of-rise/fixed heat detectors in some areas.

EOLs

There were Edwards EOL-P1 end of line resistor plates on all initiating and signal circuits.

Notification Appliances

All notification appliances are System Sensor “SpectrAlert Advance” P2RA horn/strobes (red, wall-mount, set to 15cd).

Initiating Devices

Pull Stations

All pull stations are Notifier MPS-950B conventional pull stations, wired to Notifier FMM-101A addressable monitor modules.

Automatic Detection Devices

There are Notifier FSP-851A addressable photoelectric smoke detectors located throughout the building, mounted on System Sensor B210LPA bases. There is one Notifier FSP-951A addressable photoelectric smoke detector in the kitchen as a deficiency replacement, mounted on a System Sensor B300A-6 base. There are also Notifier FST-851A addressable thermal heat detectors in some areas.

EOLs

There are Notifier EOL-CR end of line resistor plates on all signal circuits.

Former System Specifications (2000s-2017)

System Specifications
FACP: Notifier AFP-200C FACP Location: Unknown System Type: Single-Stage Addressable System Line Voltage: 120VAC NAC Voltage: 24VDC System Coding: Temporal? Strobes Synchronized: No Date of last known Upgrade: 2000s Year Decommissioned: 2017

FACP

The building was protected by a Notifier AFP-200C addressable fire alarm system. The panel location was unknown. The system ran Notifier’s CLIP addressable protocol, and the system coding was temporal.

Notification Appliances

Common Areas

All common area notification appliances were EST 792-7A-006 horn/strobes (red, wall-mount, 15/75cd).

Guest Rooms

All guest rooms had EST 692-7A-103 mini-horn/strobes (white, wall-mount, 15/75cd).

Initiating Devices

Pull Stations

All pull stations were Notifier MPS-950B conventional pull stations. These were wired to Notifier FMM-101A addressable monitor modules. These are still in use on the current system.

Automatic Detection Devices

There were Notifier FSP-851A addressable photoelectric smoke detectors located throughout the building. There were also Notifier FST-851A addressable thermal heat detectors in some areas. All detectors were mounted on System Sensor B210LPA bases. These are still in use on the current system.

EOLs

There were Notifier EOL-CR end of line resistor plates on all signal circuits.

Former System Specifications (1995-2000s)

System Specifications
