Oilfields General Hospital is a hospital located at 717 Government Road, in Black Diamond, Alberta, Canada. The hospital is owned and operated by Alberta Health Services. The hospital was built in 1984, and expanded in 1991. The fire alarm system was upgraded in 2010.

System Specifications (2010-present)

FACP

The building is protected by an Edwards EST3 addressable fire alarm system. The panel is located in the maintenance office. The system runs Edwards’ Signature addressable protocol, and is configured for two-stage operation. The alert coding is 20BPM, and the alarm coding is temporal.

Annunciators

There are Edwards EST3-LCDANN annunciators at all nurse’s stations and in the main entrance vestibule. All annunciators are equipped with Edwards LCDXL1 displays.

Notification Appliances

All notification appliances are Edwards “Genesis” G1R-HDVM horn/strobes (red, wall-mount, no marking, set to 15cd).

Initiating Devices

Pull Stations

All pull stations are EST SIGA-270P addressable two-stage single-action pull stations.

Automatic Detection Devices

There are EST SIGA-PS addressable photoelectric smoke detectors in most areas. There are EST SIGA-HRS addressable 135°F fixed-temperature/rate-of-rise heat detectors in some areas. All detectors are mounted on EST SIGA-SB bases.

Modules

There are EST SIGA-CT1 addressable monitor modules supervising the sprinkler system’s tamper and flow switches.

EOLs

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