Hope you guys enjoy! Another pretty cool retrofit system. Join the discord: / discord Need a fire alarm coder or sync module? Check out my ebay store: www.ebay.com/u...
There's a building in my city that used to be a bank, with a Simplex system with 2903+9833 horn/visuals, 4251-20 single-action pulls and 2098-9636 "wiffle ball" smoke detectors on the 2-wire bases. But when it became a housing authority office, the Simplex system was ripped out and replaced with a Notifier system identical to that one, complete with boring SpectrAlert Advances (they're so common, even my college and my first elementary school replaced their Simplex 4051+4050-80 horn/lights with them!)
@thegoanimatevideomaker2004 wiring job looks messy (nothing is organized or labeled) and the nac boosters don’t silence the horns on alarm silence (listen and watch closely at the end when the tech hits alarm silence. Even 4050-80 makes a comment referring to this.).
@@achannelwithnopurpose1977the gutted simplex panels were done a long time before the notifier system went in. The nac booster was weird I can’t lie tho
@@FourtyFiftyEighty I was also referring to the new notifier panel install. Wires aren’t clamped down to the back, organized so they make a clear straight line from the bundle going out of the panel to the terminal block (ie wires don’t cross paths going to their terminals or tangle up), or even are labeled to make distinguishing which wire is which without digging through the wires to read the terminal blocks as far as I can see. The wires look like they were just half-assed in there and look lazily done/like a rats nest. If I were there I would want to, with the customer’s permission of course, reorganize everything and correctly redo some of the wiring so it looks professionally done. Plus I would fix the nac booster issue that some donut dodo brain done messed up during installation (notifier makes it so easy to look up part catalogs and download online manuals so there really is no excuse for incorrectly or lazily installing something). Even better properly done systems are much easier to troubleshoot and maintain plus they work properly. And customers will pick up on the well done job and the fact you take pride in your work and want your business back for any future fire alarm work. So much more incentive to just do it right than just half-ass everything.
man these couldove been set on high volume and they couldove put a 640 or 3030 in here. and no need to leave the old stuff behind like the simplex system or whatever panel it was they couldove just took the whole thing out and put a 3030 or a 640 in there. instead of drawing new holes they couldove just put it where the old signals are instead of cutting a new hole for a new backbox and fit it there and then leave the old signal behind inactive.
This is the saddest video you’ve ever posted. Looks like they even slapped the new panel into a 4100+ cabinet too. Edit: actually looks more like a 4002/4020 but still

aww its sad to see an old system go... but that notifier system is pretty neat!!
OMG THOSE SKINNY CONCRETE TILES ARE EXACTLY WHAT MY ELEMENTARY HAD!!!! Another amazing video
System looked cool, but installation looked very sloppy.

Sad to see the old system gone. Not as professional as the other System Sensor retrofit system
I agree, very sad
Nice

I bet they used to have horns or bells
Test magnet does not comply with the requirements for functional testing
womp womp
Not sure if it is a good idea to put the horn/strobes DIRECTLY next to the classroom doors. You are gonna blast students ears off as they evacuate.
It'll do that to anybody them damn things wake the dead lol
Whrelcok and faraday I guess
nope simplex 4246
Hi
The horns sound like shit, must be replaced with 4051s with 4050-80 light plates
This is the saddest video you’ve ever posted. Looks like they even slapped the new panel into a 4100+ cabinet too.
Edit: actually looks more like a 4002/4020 but still
Yeah. They made custom retrofit plates for it though which actually looks pretty damn clean
I bet there were 4040s or 4050s in there intill lame advances ruined it
@Mleslie98the chimes and bells are for class change, the original system was probably 4040s or 4050a
Idk if it was horns or bells or AC or DC. First panel was a 4246 so imma assume AC
yuck, P2R's.
