fire alarm system demo

Posted by admin on May 5th, 2010 and filed under fire alarm | No Comments »

a demo of my mini fire alarm system. Devices hooked up are a Fire-Lite MS-4424B alarm control panel, Simplex 4251-20 pull, Simplex 4904-9101 remote strobe (4.5 Cd) and BRK 2824 smoke detector. This demo shows how a fire alarm system is activated by smoke. The beeping you hear is not the smoke detector, it’s the panel’s piezo indicating there’s an alarm condition. I used a burning insense stick to activate the smoke detector. The reason why I blew into it torwards the end was to make sure there was no smoke inside the detector so it would not trigger a false alarm. This system set up is a work in progress. Also what you see here is a privately owned set up, do not attempt on a public system.

enjoy

This is a compilation of video footage shot over a three day period early in the Station Fire which has since burned over 160,000 acres in and around the Angeles National Forest. It was a painful process to edit three days of footage down to under ten minutes without breaking it up into several parts.
