How much power does a normal Fire alarm consume?

admin — Tue, 29 Jun 2010 10:35:43 +0000

I’m willing to pursue my project on Fire alarm systems but I first need to know power consumed by it!
Please help, I prefer answers for industry peoples

For a typical commercial fire alarm system, the AC power will be at the control panel and it will typically need about 100W to 200W to run it. See http://www.azsecurity.net/pdf/ALARMAS%20CONTRA%20INCENDIO/PANELES/FIRELITE/MS9600.pdf

UAlbany Fire Alarm – 2/12/07 (Campus Center Extension)

admin — Sun, 27 Jun 2010 05:03:20 +0000

Well, what were the odds? It happened again (sort of). I was eating lunch in the food court, and then the fire alarm goes off! I scramble to get out my camera and after I turn it on, I grab my lunch and get out (forgetting my book bag was under the table – oops).

Well, after we get outside, they tell us it was NOT a drill, and they don’t know what set it off, so we had to wait for the fire department to arrive and inspect the place. After finding out there’s no fire, they silence the alarm. The system, like all the rest on the campus, is programmed for “audible silence”, so the strobes were still flashing after the alarm stopped. However, wanting to get back to their lunch (not to mention the warm building) people start to make their way back in. But, the UPD officer on the scene forces them back out. Well, as it turns out, for some reason, they couldn’t get the system to reset (it was acting funny from the start – the “Alarm Silenced” LED was on, even though it was never silenced), so they decide to let everyone back in anyway.

They fiddled with it for the next 20-25 minutes, and they even set if off again briefly (they didn’t make us evacuate, though). After finally figuring out a smoke detector was the problem (it went bad), they were finally able to get the system to reset.

A6-3 responding – Fire Alarm

admin — Tue, 22 Jun 2010 00:39:09 +0000

Ambulance 6-3 responding with Engine and Tower 6 to a fire alarm. Usually, we don’t go on fire alarms, but at this facility, the fire alarms and lifeline alarms are the same alarm. It’s a frequent visit, and of three of these calls since Sunday, this is the first good video. Good practice for driving, though.

How was it that my mother helped my friend to pull the fire alarm in a fire?

admin — Wed, 16 Jun 2010 20:21:14 +0000

When there was a fire how was it that my mom helped my friend to pull the fire alarm in a fire with breaking the glass? Why was it that she had me to go to another fire alarm and pull it. Was it normal for me to run back to the other alarm and tell my friend how to break the glass? I asked my mom if I should pull one alarm and she said go for ti. How did my mom allow my friend to do the alarm and she kicked the glass for him and he pulled the handle.

I have no idea what you are asking.
In a fire, yes you should pull fire alarms!?
