1 Fire Signal Receiving Centres vs. Proprietary Fire Signal Receiving Centres CAN/ULC-S561 ALAN CAVERS ULC
2 Reliable Fire Alarm Monitoring Why is it important? Codes and Standards? What is a fire alarm monitoring? Signal Receiving Centre vs. Proprietary Installation of a Fire Alarm monitoring system? Periodic Testing of these Systems?
3 CAN/ULC-S561 Fire Signal Receiving Centre
4 Why is Important? Installed Systems must meet the intent of the Code. Signals to the Fire Signal Receiving Centre in a uniform way. Disposition of Signals to the responding authority. Understanding the AHJ requests for compliant systems.
5 CAN/ULC-S561 This Standard covers the: Construction, operation, installation, inspection and tests applicable to fire signal receiving centres for fire protective signalling services utilizing fire signal receiving centre facilities and satellite centres and bridging centres; Construction and operation of a proprietary fire signal receiving centre; and Installation, inspection and tests applicable to a fire signal transmitting unit and its field device inputs at the protected premises.
6 Definitions SIGNAL RECEIVING CENTRE A facility that receives alarm signals and at which trained personnel and service persons are on duty at all times. PROPRIETARY FIRE SIGNAL RECEIVING CENTRE A facility, operated by the owner of the protected premises in which services encompassed in this Standard are monitored at all times by trained personnel.
7 Codes and Standards Signals to the Fire Department New Buildings - NBC/OBC Existing Buildings NBC/OFC
8 Occupancy Single Stage Fire Alarm System Group A -Assembly Occupancy - >300 Group B Occupancy Care or Detention Facility Group F Division 1 High Hazard Fire Alarm System with Water-flow devices Two Stage Fire Alarm System Alert stage
9 Codes and Standards Mandated in Canada National Building Code (4) (CAN/ULC-S561) National Fire Code (CAN/ULC-S561)
10 Fire Alarm Monitoring NBC (1) CAN/ULC-S NBC (2) CAN/ULC-S NBC (4) CAN/ULC-S NFC CAN/ULC-S NFC CAN/ULC-S561-03
11 Fire Alarm System Monitoring (CAN/ULC-S524) - The interconnection wiring from the fire alarm control unit or transponder to the fire signal receiving centre shall comply with CAN/ULC-S561, Installation and Services for Fire Signal Receiving Centres and Systems. CAN/ULC-S Appendix C2 (G) Documentation to include the name and number of the Fire Signal Receiving Centre (CAN/ULC-S561) Latest Edition of CAN/ULC-S has expanded this section- more importance on fire monitoring Extension of the Fire Alarm System
12 Fire Monitoring System What is a fire monitoring system? Fire alarm system or sprinkler riser connected to a fire alarm transmitter for the purposes of transmitting fire alarm conditions from the protected property to a fire signal receiving centre in order to dispatch the correct responding authorities.
13 Compliant System Compliant System Protected Premise Transmitter Fire Alarm Panel Sprinkler Riser Communication Path Active or Passive Multiplex,Internet DACT c/w Cell Fire Signal Receiving Centre Receiving Units Sufficient Staff
14 What is a Fire Signal Receiving Centre? A facility that receives alarm signals and at which trained persons are on duty at all times. Consists of the following: Facility with 2hr. Fire rating Signal receivers, station automation computer Dedicated Power Source Back-up systems- Telephone, generator, UPS
15 What is a Fire Signal Receiving Centre? Consists of the following cont d: Security Vestibule- Interlocked Doors CCTV Camera System and intercom Early warning fire protection system Fire Extinguishers Buddy System Trained staff to handle and dispatch alarms-24/7 Contingency Plan unforeseen disasters
16 Signals to the Fire Signal Receiving Centre Fire Alarm Fire Trouble Fire Supervisory AC Fail Communication Failures
17 Proprietary Signal Receiving Centre PROPRIETARY FIRE SIGNAL RECEIVING CENTRE A facility, operated by the owner of the protected premises in which services encompassed in this Standard are monitored at all times by trained personnel. Owner monitors and maintain its own premises. Universities, hospitals, Walmart, Target
18 Proprietary Signal Receiving Centre 2 hour fire separation. Exception- 1 hour if the building is sprinklered. Single locked door Owner will provide Staffing 24/7 Owner usually provides installation and maintenance on the protected premises. Owner usually provides a runner service.
19 Proprietary Signal Receiving Centre Installations at the protected buildings can be proprietary fire alarm equipment. OR Off the shelf fire alarm transmitters.
20 Installations
21 Installations Transmitter- S559/S527 Compliant Manufacturer s Installation Instructions. Communication Channels Metallic raceway for interconnecting wires Supervision of circuits Installed as per CAN/ULC-S561 Tested prior to occupancy.
22 Newer Installation- Passive
23 New Installation- S561 Compliant
24 Communication Systems Methods of Communications: Passive or Active Maximum Time to receive a fire alarm signal from a protected premises 60 seconds A communication system shall be continuously supervised to detect line faults Passive Systems Communication Path tested ever 24hrs.
25 Installations Standalone Sprinkler Risers
26 Trimmed Sprinkler
27 Waterflow Standalone Sprinkler Risers Fire Trouble Fire Supervisory (pressure and gate valves)
28 Periodic Testing
29 Fire Alarm System - Annually Periodic Testing Waterflow Every two months Supervisory- Gate Valves, Pressure - Every Six months
30 Accuracy of Signals All installed fire monitoring systems shall properly program to transmit accurate signals to the FSRC in order that the operators can quickly dispatch responding authorities. Fire Alarm = Fire Alarm Fire Trouble = Fire Trouble Fire Supervisory = Fire Supervisory No conflicting signals. (ie Burglar alarm)
31 Accuracy Continued Updated Contact Lists Proper Fire Department Phone Numbers No verification of fire alarm signals.
32 Disposition of Signals Clause Fire Alarm Signals from a Fire Panel or Extinguishing System: Contact fire department within 30 seconds Contact persons designated by the owner within 5 minutes
33 Disposition of Signals Cont d Fire Trouble and Supervisory Communication Troubles Signal Transmitting Unit Troubles - Contact Owner within 5 min. - Dispatch service within 4hrs.
34 CAN/ULC-S AHJ s, Property Managers and Alarm Companies Shall Comply to the OBC/ OFC Signals to the Fire Department by way of Fire Alarm Monitoring System in Compliance to CAN/ULC-S Shall provide a Certificate of Compliance attesting that the fire alarm monitoring system is in compliance to the applicable Standard. Submit document to AHJ Usually done by a ULC Listed Fire Alarm Monitoring/ Installation Company
35 Documentation ULC Protective Signaling System Certificate
36 ULC Certificate
37 Fire Monitoring- Conclusion Meet the Intent of the OBC/OFC/ S561 Fire Monitoring systems are not just the FSRC. Install the proper transmitter. Follow the Manufacturer s Installation Instructions. Utilize the proper communication path. ULC Listed Fire Signal Receiving Centre. Disposition all signals as per CAN/ULC-S561. Periodic Testing.
