DISCLAIMER: SOME DATES MIGHT BE OFF
in 1970 when finished construction
Edwards 891Ds and Adaptahorns.
In places where horns are not needed, like bathrooms some classes, etc, 890 lamps were installed
Edwards horns only’s were installed in places where lights were not necessary.
1998
Eventually, the system was upgraded in 1998 with EHS-DL1 horn strobes and WS3T strobes.
Devices that failed were replaced with integrities.
Then, in 2009, a lot of the N/As were replaced with Integrities.
In 2016, most to all of the integrities were replaced with EST 757H-75PS devices. Some of the original integrities remain. Outside, there are 3 EST Outdoor integrities.
4 of the original devices remain. Still connected and working to this day. 1 891D in the gym. The horn on this 891D has been replaced with an EST remote horn. 2nd og device is an 891D in the boy’s locker room. Does have its adaptahorn. 3rd device is an 890 Lamp in the drama room. Lastly, and adaptahorn in the girl’s locker room. The strobe got replaced with a WST3 tho.
One 891D remains in an abandoned janitor’s hallway. It is connected to the system but sounds like junk. the light is burnt out and has a hole in it from a janitor hitting it with a broom. did it again and she smashed the horns grill. producing the stupid sound.
That’s it folks!
