Bell Test #3: High Rise Voice Evacuation (EST3)

I've never run down so many flights of stairs in my life.
Anyways, this is a high-rise office building with an EST3 system. The system is two-stage, with a separate audio zone for each floor and stairwell. Hope you guys enjoy!
Edit: The strobes on several floors were non-functional as a power supply in the 9th floor node failed. There was a Chubb-Edwards technician on-site fixing the issue the same day this was taken, and the issue has since been fixed.

At least they told everyone before sounding the fire alarm and said that the lights will be flashing for an hour. If you have seizures especially if they are triggered by flashing lights don't look at the flashing lights put on really dark sunglasses on until the test is over.

We have to test paging anyways, so it makes sense to announce when we're testing instead of relying on notices given to the tenants.

@@Twentythree33 I love the voice Evac systems. The schools I go to that have them, I think it’s the best. It really works with ppl that have a sensory overload, because it tells them what to do instead of just being annoying.

@GaryBeltz Жыл бұрын

What do both messages say I can hear the one say something about if you're in the stairwell and the other says something about the building in full alarm.

@Twentythree33 Жыл бұрын

The stairwell message says "Your attention. Your attention please. There is an alarm condition in the building. If you are in this stairwell, please evacuate the building using this stairwell." The second stage message says "Your attention. Your attention please. This building is in full alarm. Please evacuate the building using the nearest available stairwell. Fire wardens report the status of your floor at the main floor security desk." The system has custom messages and floor-by-floor evac, with stairwell audio zones as well.

When it's a high rise I think it has about 20-30 floors I'm not sure because I'm not an architect I think I'm right if you think I'm wrong look it up on Google or whatever search engine you use.

The panel is an EST3. The notification appliances are mostly Edwards 965-series speaker/strobes, with Genesis speakers in the stairwells.

That’s not bad at my school they had to fix some problems with the fire alarms so we sat in class all day listening to fire alarms and that went on for a week that was the worst week for my ears ever.

Oh god no. This bell test was done after hours, when the building was closed. I think we started the test at about 7 PM.

@susiekazoku8665 Жыл бұрын

That’s what the school should’ve done and the type of the alarms they had made someone jump out their seat and was just annoying it’s like they would start then stop and go for long periods of time the stop and go off at random moments.

@Twentythree33 Жыл бұрын

Yes definitely. I think the reason they didn't do after hours is because the billing rate for after hours is significantly higher.
