‘’’Richmond Towers’’’ is an apartment complex owned and operated by Boardwalk. This page will cover Building 71 (also known as Glenpatrick House), located at 71 Glamis Drive SW, in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. The building was built in 1980, and the fire alarm system was partially upgraded in the 2010s.


System Specifications (2010s-present)

FACP

The building is protected by a Mircom FX-2000 hybrid-addressable fire alarm system. The panel is located in the main entrance vestibule. The system runs Mircom’s CLIP addressable protocol, and the system coding is temporal.
The elevator and penthouse devices are addressable, while all other portions of the system are conventional.


Notification Appliances

All notification appliances are Mircom “Select-A-Horn/Strobe” FHS-340W horn/strobes (white, wall-mount, set to electromechanical/15cd).


Initiating Devices

Pull Stations

Most pull stations are Edwards 270-SPO conventional single-action pull stations.
Some areas have Mircom MS-401 conventional single-action pull stations as deficiency replacements.
There is a Mircom MS-401AP addressable single-action pull station in the boiler room.


Automatic Detection Devices

There are System Sensor C2W-BA conventional photoelectric smoke detectors throughout all common areas, and at the top and bottom of each stairwell.
There are System Sensor 5601A conventional 135°F fixed-temperature/rate-of-rise heat detectors in the garbage rooms on each floor, and in some laundry rooms.
Other laundry rooms have Edwards 353-01 conventional 135°F fixed-temperature/rate-of-rise heat detectors.
There are Mircom TD-135 conventional 135°F fixed-temperature heat detectors in the mechanical, electrical in generator rooms.
There are Mircom MIX-2251APA addressable photoelectric smoke detectors in all elevator lobbies, and at the top of the elevator shaft.
There are Mircom MIX-5251HAPA addressable 190°F fixed-temperature heat detectors in the boiler room.
There is a Mircom MIX-5251APA addressable 135°F fixed-temperature heat detector in the boiler room vestibule.
There is a Mircom MIX-5251RAPA addressable 135°F fixed-temperature/rate-of-rise heat detector in the boiler room storage room.
All addressable detectors are mounted on System Sensor B210LPA bases.


EOLs

There are Edwards EOL-P1 end of line resistor plates on all conventional and signal circuits but one: zone 3 has a Siemens EL-300C end of line resistor plate.
