One good practice I've found is adding labels to all the devices with their address. That way you can clearly identify which device it is in the future without having to open it. Helps when testing the system also
@joeycaridi3030
2 жыл бұрын
What the labels usually say is the SLC's loop number and device's address number and the type of device is which is Module or Detector. Here's what it all means: L#: SLC loop # M###: Module # Or D###: Detector # Example 1 (Module): L1M004. L1 is the SLC loop's number of the device that it's on, M004 is the Module's address on that SLC loop. Example 2 (Detector): L2D008. L2 is the SLC loop's number of the device that it's on, D008 is the Detector's address on that SLC loop. When adding the Module's label like "L1M100" it also has to be added to the outside of a pull station because inside an addressable pull station there's a mini monitor module built inside the pull station that monitors the pull station's contacts where the contacts are in an open state as the pull station is normal (LED light of the mini monitor module is blinking fast) and if it monitors the contacts in a closed state as the pull station is pulled then the monitor module will set off the fire alarm system (LED light of the mini monitor module is solid) and the monitor module will stay in that closed state when the pull station is reset but will go back to an open state when the system is reset with the pull station as well (LED light of the mini monitor module is blinking fast again). It could've been different as a pull station would be abbreviated as "P" which means the label could be "L2P060" but it's "M" to abbreviate Module as pull stations count as a Module on an addressable system because of the mini monitor module inside of it

Looks like it started out as a Simplex fire alarm system in the 1970s, but then in the 1980s or early 1990s the Edwards 6616 replaced whatever the old Simplex panel was (probably a 4207 or 4208), along with those Edwards heat sensors, and some of the Simplex bells got replaced with newer bells over time. And now everything comes out in favor of the Notifier NFS-320C. I'm reminded of how the Liberal Arts and Humanities buildings at my college recently went through such an upgrade. They were originally built in 1978 with Simplex 4207 fire alarm systems, with 4051+4050-80 horn/lights, 4255-1 and 4265 heat sensors and those same 4251-20 single-action pulls. Then in 2005 a Faraday MPC-7000 system was installed to cover both buildings, with Space Age Electronics VA4 horn/strobes, Faraday FireSmart smoke and heat detectors and addressable 8700-M "Chevron" pulls (that had dual-action adapter covers installed in 2008.) Then this summer both buildings each had their own Notifier system installed, probably an NFS-320 (an FDU-80 annunciator was installed in each building's entrance near the electrical rooms where the panels were installed), with those same System Sensor L-series horn/strobes, FSP-951 smoke detectors and NBG-12LX pulls. The rest of the college campus already mostly had Notifier systems installed, and so after being out of the loop for quite a while I am glad these two buildings finally hopped on the Notifier bandwagon!

Just as a side note, installers do not decide what volume setting to put the devices on. Your judgement of what is appropriate for the space is just as irrelevant as the selection of the devices themselves. I've been installing for four years and I have always been told that if a lower volume setting is required, it will be marked on the drawings. Elsewise, we do not touch the volume selector. I am glad you decided to revert that horn strobe back to high volume. If someone failed to hear that device for whatever reason, anything that happened to said individual would fall on you. Be cautious and know that the decisions you make can (and often do) impact the wellbeing and safety of others. On a much more positive note, the video is very well made and you are doing great work!

I've never understood the swapping out of bells for sirens or sounders. It's the same story here in the UK, bells are not very common to find except in shops and schools etc. I've always thought of bells as being better, simply due to the fact they are so much louder. That being said I suppose the moving parts are a good point of failure.

I mean, it could be due to the fact that if you were deaf, you wouldn't know what's going on because, well, there's no strobe. This can also happen with light plates, since they just aren't as bright as strobe.
