School Fire Alarm Inspection Part 2

This is an extremely boring video; nothing but the floor and horns going off everywhere. This was during a fire alarm inspection I had helped with. Simplex 4005 system @ march time.

It is unusual for a building to have alarms that are not the same. I'm guessing two fire alarm control panels tied together, judging by the two annunciators.

@TssCman123 It's one annunciator; one board is the control board (key switch, control functions like silince & reset) and the other is the zone indicator.

@SimplexTech Correction - after looking they are both zone indicator panels.

I wish those older horns would be replaced with TrueAlerts. Because they are old.

[PlausableApple4]

Were vibratone horns used in that system?

@monkeysarefun12 Simplex 4903-9219

@thesoulsekr It's probably a 4903-9219 (the -9217 has a 110-candela strobe and the -9219 has a 15-candela strobe).

@SimplexTech Actually, i had the same occurrence in my old school...we had a system with 4030-2 horns in the old section and 4037 flush mount horns in the new section. They replaced the entire system with a new panel (it was in the janitor's room so i never saw the model number) and true alert horns. They removed the 4030-2s but kept the 4037 flush mount horns in the walls in the new section. They never did work again, and i presume to this day they are still there. i wish i could steal one...
