Willway Elementary is an elementary school located at 2939 Mt. Wells Drive, in Victoria, British Columbia, Canada. The school opened in 1977, and has been expanded several times; the latest being 1991. The fire alarm system was fully upgraded in 2024.
System Specifications (2024-present)
FACP
The building is protected by a Notifier NFS-320C addressable fire alarm system. The panel is located in the main electrical room. The system runs Notifier's FlashScan addressable protocol, and the system coding is temporal.
Annunciators
There is likely a Notifier LCD2-80 LCD annunciator paired with two ACM-24AT LED annunciators at the main entrance.
Notification Appliances
All notification appliances are System Sensor "L-Series" P2RLA horn/strobes (red, wall-mount, set to electromechanical, 15cd). These were installed in place of the bells.
Initiating Devices
Pull Stations
All pull stations are Notifier NBG-12LX addressable dual-action pull stations.
Automatic Detection Devices
There are Notifier FSP-951A addressable photoelectric smoke detectors located throughout the building. There are also Notifier FST-951RA addressable thermal heat detectors in some areas. All detectors are mounted on System Sensor B300A-6 bases.
Modules
There are several Notifier ISO-X isolator modules on the SLCs, beside the panel.
