System Specifications (2013-present)

FACP

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

Notification Appliances

Most notification appliances are System Sensor “SpectrAlert Advance” PC2WA horn/strobes (white, ceiling-mount, set to 15cd).
There are System Sensor P2RA horn/strobes (red, wall-mount, set to 15cd) on the exterior walls of the store.

Initiating Devices

Pull Stations

Most pull stations are Notifier NBG-12LX addressable dual-action pull stations.
Some areas have Notifier NBG-12L conventional single-action pull stations, wired to Notifier FMM-101A addressable monitor modules. These were likely installed due to supply issues.

Automatic Detection Devices

None noticed. The building is equipped with a sprinkler system.

Modules

There are Notifier FMM-1A addressable monitor modules supervising the plaza’s panel, and the sprinkler system’s tamper and flow switches.
There is a Notifier FRM-1A addressable relay module programmed to activate the plaza’s system in alarm.

EOLs

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