Don’t think it being marked “FIRE” but being for CO alert & having a blue lens is in line with code…
That’s an improvement from the last one but the labels can’t be very visible (not to mention the fact that they’re sideways: maybe a sign next to the alarm would be better).
Going by the sign below it it’s likely a sprinkler bell instead: it rings when the sprinkler system operates.
Not sure that residential CO detector is allowed for use in a commercial building…
Activity Center, Mahoney SP, Ashland NE
System is a 4005, with an original 4003 attached. NAs are Simplex, can’t remember the model numbers. In the new rock climbing area, there are TruAlert speaker strobes.
I have a couple of systems to post. Sorry about the last poll i got lost which ones i meant on some. These are the most interesting ones and choose which sounds most interesting to you.

College Of DuPage MAC Building Panel
NFS2-3030, located in an electrical closet on the first floor, with a DVC (Panel is on a networked system and is set as node 9) N/A’s
Wheelock E90’s, Wheelock E70’s, and Wheelock E50’s Pulls/Detectors
Pulls are NBG12-LX’s, and detectors are FSP-851’s
Panel: Some sort of conventional (maybe voice evac) Fire-Lite panel, with an AFP style annunciator, branded by Fire-Lite
Pulls: NBG10L’s, and NBG12L’s
Alarms: SpectrAlert Classic speaker strobes, And System Sensor MASS speaker strobes
Honestly, I am not sure about what panel this could be. The annunciator is an AFP style annunciator, without a display, and marked as Fire-Lite. The panel could have voice evac, like a Notifier AMG, or the speakers could be fed by a separate panel, like a Wheelock Safepath. If anyone could help identify the parts in this system, that would be awesome, but I understand if I do not have enough details to make any assumptions.
Atrius Health (Post Office Square) - Boston, MA
I was walking around in the area… and came across this building, which still has a Simplex 2001 in use in 2024!
Woah, I recognize that 2001! I recall seeing it during a trip to Boston in 2012, as I stayed at a hotel located near that building (the place had a different name at the time—if I’m not mistaken, it was Harvard Vanguard Medical). I spotted the panel through the windows of the building’s lobby while walking back to the hotel one evening and stopped briefly to look at it. I regretted not getting a photo.
I still think of that panel from time to time; I was convinced that it was long gone by now. I was surprised that it was still in service 12 years ago, so it’s amazing to see that it’s still there today.
BIG UPDATE: My elementary school’s fire alarm system got replaced! I was riding my bicycle around the school, and took some pictures through the windows. Firstly, I will go over its original system:
Panel: EST QuickStart (replaced by an iO64)
Pulls: Edwards 270-SPOs
Alarms: EST 792-7A-006 horn/strobes, 1 EST Integrity (in kindergarten hallway near OT and PT room/Special Ed classrooms, and 1 EST Genesis (in media center)
Detectors: Edwards GS photo detectors
And worse, the new system has been taken over by Honeywell!
Panel: Silent Knight SK6820EVS
Pulls: Silent Knight PS-DAs
N/As: L-Series speaker/strobes and Advance speaker/strobes outside
