I saw that this college is at the top of the list of recent projects on the website of the Autocall dealer in my area. This likely means that this building will be getting an Autocall 4100ES voice system, which is very unprecedented for this college.
They have officially made the decision to close this school. There is still no telling what will happen with the building after the school district sells it, but the community has made it clear that they still want the property to be focused on education and community. The roughly 70 kids from this school (not counting the ones who will move to the middle school next year) will move to the open space at other schools in the district, and the staff will fill much needed roles at other schools in the district. If they ever need more elementary school space again, they will add onto the existing elementary schools (especially the new school that was opened in 2023, and my former elementary school).
This photo was actually taken in a bathroom, of all places. Oddly, this place has horn/strobes in all of the restrooms in both the older, and the newer parts. The system still hasn’t been replaced, although I’d say it’s pretty insane that an arena with seating for almost 10,000 people has this system. They aren’t planning on upgrading as many things as they originally were, and they don’t have a whole lot of extra money, so they will likely run this system until it dies, or they are forced to replace it.
Good finds! Odd how that Amseco SFH45/SFH47-series speaker/strobe has its lettering facing the wrong way though, heh.
Neat, but I wish the installations who put that MS-9200UDLS in had done what the other panel installers did & not just mounted it to the old FACP’s cabinet.
Here’s the alarms at a Wyndham in Lake Charles. They have Siemens devices with Siemens rebranded Wheelock notification appliances. The annunciator is a SSD-C, probably for a Firefinder panel.
