FACP[edit | edit source]

The building is protected by a Notifier AFP-200 addressable fire alarm system. The panel is located in the main entrance vestibule. The system runs Notifier’s CLIP addressable protocol, and the system coding is continuous.

Notification Appliances[edit | edit source]

Most notification appliances are System Sensor “Multi-Alert” MA/SS24MA sounder strobes (red, wall-mount, 15cd, set to 800Hz).
Some areas have System Sensor “SpectrAlert” P2415A horn/strobes (red, wall-mount, 15cd).
Some areas have Mircom “Select-A-Horn/Strobe” FHS-340R horn/strobes (red, wall-mount, set to electromechanical/15cd) as deficiency replacements.
One corridor has a Mircom FHS-240R horn/strobe (red, wall-mount, set to electromechanical/15cd) as a deficiency replacement.

Initiating Devices[edit | edit source]

Pull Stations[edit | edit source]

Most pull stations are Notifier NFM-950B conventional single-action pull stations.
Some areas have Simplex MS-301C and Notifier MPS-950B conventional single-action pull stations as deficiency replacements.
All aforementioned stations have Notifier MMX-101A addressable monitor modules attached to them.
Some areas have Notifier NBG-12LX addressable dual-action pull stations as recent deficiency replacements.

Automatic Detection Devices[edit | edit source]

Some areas have Notifier CPX-551A addressable ionization smoke detectors.
All CPX-series and some FSP-series detectors are mounted on Notifier BX501 bases.
Some FSP-series detectors are mounted on System Sensor B210LPA bases.
There is an FDD CR-135-EWP conventional explosion-proof 135°F fixed-temperature/rate-of-rise heat detector in the corrosive storage area, wired to a Notifier FDM-1A addressable dual-input monitor module.

Modules[edit | edit source]

There are Notifier MMX-1A addressable monitor modules supervising the sprinkler system’s tamper and flow switches.
There are Notifier CMX-1A addressable relay modules for AHU shutdown.

EOLs[edit | edit source]
