@@fitybux4664 fire control panels are local for the quickest response. Control panels do not need to be monitored unless under maintenance or something else
@@tubbunny if you are away and you might want a fire truck to try and save your building (assuming you live close to a fire station), it is nice to have monitoring.
I'm so glad you didn't break the original one. Someone I watched actually acknowledged that an old one he had was rare and proceeded to break it anyway...
@@LogicDoesStuff idk if this is the guy that is being talked about but this features the old glass ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-zeWgUT6-Zpg.html
The middle school I went to has the vintage glass covered pull stations. They are connected to simplex 2901-9840’s with single projector covers and in the class rooms (middle school side) they have simplex 624-940’s. The portables (on the elementary side) have Wheelock AS/MT’s and the middle school portables has Wheelock 34T’s. The middle school system is on continuous and the elementary is on Temporal (code 3)
Our school has the 2099-9103 at each end of the hallway, by each door, outside of each staircase, you get the idea. It was built in 2002, but an extension to the school was added. In most of the classrooms, they don’t have the speaker strobes, the have strobes only, except for hallways (they use the simplex TrueAlert) in the extended section, however, they have horn strobes in those classrooms. That extended section is also the only part of the building with sprinklers, as the extension was built in the very late 2000s/very early 2010s, therefore not giving them an exemption from fire sprinklers for that portion. But they never replace the glass. And sometimes they leave the broken glass on the floor for a straight up month.
I just found out that my school cafeteria has those alarms. Albeit they have one of those alarm covers on them to prevent anyone from setting them off when there is not a fire
I normally have those EST Genesis which I also have an STI stopped on the pull stations which prevents me from pulling the fire alarm And those alarms or Lounde like 100 dB
How It Works: nulln is sitting on a seat with an animation that plays with the holotar. The seats settings are set so nulln is standing when on it, not sitting down. Then its just slight tweaking until it works!
I've seen quite a few Simplex 4251-30 break-glass pulls with the newer glass pane like that on actual alarm systems, usually at least one of them would be like that in such a system (I think one of the 4251-30s at my first elementary school has replacement glass in it like that.) I remember the school I got a bunch of Simplex 4051+4050-80 horn/lights from five years ago had nearly half of its' 4251-30 pulls have replacement glass like that in them!
If you’re going to run any newer Simplex devices (4903 horn strobes,4901 electronic horns,newer 4904s, and any TrueAlerts) get a filtered power supply first. FWR can kill newer simplex devices. Just be careful with FWR.
@Dank Fire fighters are not engineers - they would not have this knowledge of the horn/strobe power signal waveforms or any other technical aspects of the systems.
The horn on the 9219 sounds cool and all, but the strobe on it will get fried because it’s being ran on FWR power, which is why the horn sounds a bit raspy. Just be careful when running Simplex 4903s on FWR, it can potentially kill the devices when it’s being ran for too long.
The frame is supposed to flip downward when the glass is smashed, to make it easier to access the lever without the hammer or any broken glass shards in the way.
@@ajsmusic723 Interesting. Generally with the 4251 break-glass pulls they were designed so the frame flips downward when the glass is smashed. It was a pretty ingenious design, enabling the lever to be pulled without the hammer or broken glass shards in the way.
That was amazing man that was amazing you even broke the glass you made that thing fall down that was just beautiful and amazing I really like the alarm to
The 4251-30 pulls were designed so the frame with hammer flips down after the glass is smashed, to make it easier to access the lever without worry of broken glass shards or anything like that.
@erni1300, sometimes it depends on the situation. But indeed, I very rarely see break-glass pulls in new installs nowadays; usually the Simplex district in my area only installs them to replace older Simplex 4251-style break-glass pulls that had failed, like in early 2009 at my first elementary school, where two of the 4251-30 pulls that were found inoperable were replaced with Simplex 2099-9103s.
Interesting, I always throught you'd have to reach through where glass was to pull it. So does the hammer actaully release the cover when it swings all the way, and the glass just keeps it from swining far enough to release? (and of course, keep fingers out). Thanks for the video!
I just got into fire alarm collecting myself, mostly pull stations for now. Is there a place I can get some used ones, to add? I’m looking only for particularly ones that are keylock for now. Mostly because that’s what I’ve noticed, and it seems like that’s what most places have, at least at my school that’s what they have, keylock ones. So far, I haven’t noticed any ones that use a hex key at my school. They have a Symplex 4100 fire alarm system
Nice video! Tried to go to your website and Safari warned me that the site was not secure and it was acting like your website. This is as of October 2022.
Do you know that pulling a fee alarm is a crime you could get arrested for doing that stuff so let’s appreciate that guy working hard posting videos have a great day :)
Sped up: something is about to happen or we’re in a chase scene normal: the main character found something out and is out for revenge Slowed: the story is taking a dark turn and is becoming more serious
Interesting. I would have thought instead of lifting the hammer and slamming it down to instead hit the hammer with the side of your fist. Does the glass frame still fall open if you do it that way?
Great video! I have a Simplex 4251-20 pull station. But I would love to have a variety of Simplex pull stations. I also have a Simplex 2099-9754 pull station. Do you have newer Simplex 4903's as electronic horn/strobes and do you have 4903's as speaker/strobes? Just curious. I have a 4903-9303 speaker/strobe as my first fire alarm device.
