That's a really interesting setup. I'd have never thought that systems like this would be grandfathered into modern code, I'd have figured they'd have to be replaced.
I wonder how much power all those combined use. Also I love how most 120 volt horns sound virtually the same. You really couldn’t tell there was a wheelock device in that system
Oooh, a Faraday system from the 80s! A few buildings at my college campus have the newer version of those Faraday F1GT "Chevron" pulls; two buildings that share a Faraday MPC-7000 have the addressable versions with dual-action adapter covers on them (the alarms are Space Age VA4 horn/strobes.) My college started out with Standard Electric Time in the early 70s, then Simplex in the late 70s, switching to Faraday around the late 80s and sticking with them until early this decade when they switched to Notifier (along with a Fire-Lite system, but still Honeywell.(
Yeah it's an old system there is not panel in place and the alarms are all rated for 120vac in the building so it has its own ac breaker so it will turn on instantly when pulls and turn off immediately when reset
No panel means it must be a pain to find an activated device, especially a pull station since at least the smokes have sounders. Speaking of those smokes, I didn't think they made solo cups with that big of an adapter! Great vid!
Many smaller scoreboards actually use edwards adaptahorns for buzzers, which are very similar to these older AC-powered fire alarm buzzers in operation. The adaptahorn is a general alarm device, but they used to make a red version for fire alarm purposes. Most scoreboard buzzers are the grey version.
Do you see systems like this very often? It strikes me as strange to do this sort of setup on this large of a system with that age of equipment (I'm guessing 1980s). Unless this was a retrofit of some kind, which still seems odd that they'd leave such an obsolete setup in place. How do those smokes work? Relays?
I’m probably not right, but this is my theory for how this system works. I believe the Initiating Devices (Smokes & Pulls) are wired in Parallel. With all of the positive leads wired together and all of the negative leads wired together. Each device would have 4 wires going to it except for the last device on the loop. All of those 7004t Horns are wired in parallel (so that each device gets the same voltage and amperage) along with Inverting Realys (NOT Gates) to drop power from the door holders (These relays are potentially built in to each door holder). As soon as a pull station is pulled (or a smoke detector is tripped), it shunts its terminals, completes the circuit, and makes the horns sound. No need for EoL Resistors here, there is no supervision... I also think that this would be a challenging system to add a proper panel to as those 7004t horns use AC voltage and not DC voltage.
Faraday F1GG pull stations and Faraday alarms with the 7002T style strobes, and a Wheelock 7004T? That’s something you don’t see everyday. Awesome video!
Nice and loud... the only way. I assume the 7004t probably replaced a Faraday horn, since it appears to be an otherwise Faraday system. I had seen these particular pulls somewhere before but wasn't sure who made them.
What an interesting setup! It appears this system was installed at a time when panels weren’t really required for buildings? Also, I think those smokes alarms are made by Gentex
There were still true systems with FACP’s at the time however general contractors were less restricted on their options depending on building size and occupancy.
It’s a system that’s tied to the alarm to prevent fires from spreading from floor to floor. It’s got magnetics so when the alarm sounds it disconnects making the doors close. Most public buildings or schools have them.
Say the Smoke Detectors were to activate in an Alarm Condition. Would they keep the building in alarm or would the alarm shut off after a few minutes? Like they keep doing in the video.
My college residence hall has the same smoke detectors in the dorms but with an added heat function. They’re hooked up to a main panel, but have their own sounder and only trigger a trouble on the panel so they know what room went off. Only the pulls and smokes in common areas put the main panel into alarm for at least some of the floors nearest the point of activation. (Including the basement it’s an 8 story building with voice evacuation.) I believe the panel’s a 20-something year old FCI. Building itself is probably 50s era: I bet it had something cool like this at one point.
Wow, those old Faraday horn/strobes sound healthy. Also, smoke detectors are definitely Gentex. I think they're Gentex 8000s (smoke detectors with single set of contacts).
Huh, very unusual having the alarms wired directly into the building's power. Also for anyone wondering, the smoke detectors are indeed made by Gentex, you can also find them labeled Masterguard. (Masterguard is another brand name that Gentex uses to sell smoke, heat and CO detectors under) As far as how they activate the alarms, these particular detectors have internal Form C relays, which are most likely hooked to the same wiring that all the pull stations are, when the detector activates it activates its internal relay as well, which sounds the alarms. Kinda odd though how they first latch, (as evidenced by the LED illuminating steadily upon alarm unlike non-latching detectors where the LED pulses rapidly instead) and then they self-reset despite there being no panel to reset them. Even stranger is that they're the models with built-in horns when the building itself has separate fire alarm horn/strobes and thus the smoke detectors shouldn't require sounders as well. Very rare Faraday horn/strobes I see as well, the horns were rebranded by Simplex as the 2901-9833, albeit 24VDC instead of the 120VAC versions seen here. In fact, a number of both Simplex and Federal Signal horns were made by Faraday and then rebranded by those companies. Gotta agree with quite a few people in the comments, kinda surprised a system both this old and this not-up-to-code hasn't been replaced by now. (would definitely take quite a bit of rewiring since all the alarms are hooked directly to the initiating devices) I do see a Wheelock 7004T most likely replacing one of the older Faraday alarms, but that's about it. I'm guessing the smoke detectors are also not the originals. (one of them is so old apparently that it's turned yellow!)
that’s pretty silly two smoke alarms next to each other that activate a nearby horn I wonder if the horns of the smoke alarms are all interconnected too
A really odd system.. To me they look like old 7004ts. I dont know if the old 7004ts still run either on FWR or DC power. And if they do, was this FWR power?
Oh wow, I didn't know there were AC versions of the Faraday 5505! These must be super rare! Did you happen to see what model number they were? This is a pretty cool system!
This is a really cool fire alarm system! I love how they have smoke alarms on it with Piezo horns and Faraday AC horn strobe fire alarms. I wonder if a household smoke alarm would work on this system
the ac versions are different models but I would guess after since the 7000s are known for being the first fire alarms with xenon strobes which still haven’t quite been replaced with led yet
So it’s not automatic? Or is it? What happens when you pull 2 pull stations at the same time? How can this system be legal? Those horn/strobes look like a rip off Wheelock 7002 series alarm
First off, this system was put in before NFPA mandated panels and system installations. Second, the system is a non latching system. Which means that the system doesn't stay in alarm once a device is tripped or activated. There's no panel that tells which device has activated plus it doesn't keep the alarms going once a device is activated and reset.
Gentex 4-wire 120vac. Closed contact meaning the system is basically 1 circuit that when open from an initiating device completes the loop and activates the system. No panel work involved.
I love older systems but I hate it when they are high voltage. Also How exactly does the Gentex smoke set off the horn strobes? Is there some kind of high voltage relay connected to the standard AC?
Smoke alarm : starts making bird sounds fire alarm: honks are there birds in here? oh its just u smoke alarm people: is there a game going on? Oh its the fire alarm being tested
Those faraday horns are Faraday 5505 (ac version model). I guess this is some rarer version that runs on ac or something. Sounds like it has a 4050 horn underneath it. Also are those gentex smoke detectors?
My elementary school back in the 80s had them although it was a school specially for children and adults with disabilities so maybe they were only required for those types of buildings in that era.
Those look like some old alarms and smoke detectors. I think I used to have those smoke detectors in my house but when my dad had to remove them and replace them, I lost it when her brought the topic up but i got over it. Great video
Whenever I get that rare faraday horn strobe shown in the video that looks like a 2004t, I will replace the model number label on it, from 5505 to 7004t, which is a custom rare alarm. I will even rebrand the name Faraday to Wheelock too, so don't get too confused when I update it's brand logo and model number. I will keep the UL Label trademark shown.
@Marc Leslie I know. I wanted to say it resembles the 7002T by the way it looks. But it sounds obviously different, because the 60Hz A.C frequency pulses the sounder plate at 60Hz back and forth. So it makes a sound of 120Hz bc it is 60 times forward, and 60 times backward...well u get the idea here
