Ocean Lodge motel at Tahunanui, Nelson has a FireFinder upgrade
Nelson-based security company Safe & Sound Security Systems Ltd, will replace Ocean Lodge's 1970's Guardian fire alarm system with a new Ampac FireFinder V6 fire alarm control panel (FACP), upgrading the early Pertronic call points to Carrel & Carrel's standard Tyco-styled 130 series break glass units along with Hochiki and Apollo addressable detectors. The repeater panel will be rear serviced mounted in the window where the existing Guardian panel is, the main FireFinder control panel will be located behind the southern bar stand. This old system will be donated to a local second-hand opshop as the new system takes place to protect the motel's guests and staff.

Network of MX1 fire panels for IKEA's new furniture factory at Richmond, Nelson
The Nelson Wormald team will set up an advanced addressable "Vigilant MX1" type 4 fire alarm system for IKEA's new 5 storey Nelson furniture factory and showroom retail warehouse opposite to the Nelson Pine Industries Ltd. MDF plant, on the corner of Lower Queen Street and McShane Road, Richmond. This advanced system features AS 1668 fan controls and an automatic type 7 pre-action sprinkler deluge system. When the system goes into alarm mode it will automatically cut off power to all of the woodworking equipment, operate the fan controls and activate the pre-action deluge system as the system calls the brigade. The extraction fan system also features STI "Stopper Station" push buttons to manually shut down the equipment in the work shop area. The main master control panel is the 40U MX1 located in the security room accompanied by a QE90 emergency warning and intercommunication system (EWIS) panel. The other 5 MX1 panels use 15U cabinets. The first 15U MX1 panel is located on the wall behind the customer service desk, the second is located in the sprinkler control room, the third is located in the basement to the service tunnel and the forth is located on the exterior wall of the truck loading dock. These 5 panels use slimline cabinets as repeater panels for remote displays and controls. One for the 40U panel is rear serviced mounted in a window on the lower parking deck facing McShane Road. And as for the 15U panels, one for the first panel is rear serviced mounted in the window beside the showroom doors, one for the second is front serviced mounted in a weatherproof enclosure beside Lower Queen Street Gate West to the stockyard, one for the third one is rear serviced mounted in the window on the ground level of the stairwell in the factory wing and one for the forth is also front serviced mounted a weatherproof enclosure, but it is located at Lower Queen Street Gate East to the stockyard. The sprinkler control room is located outside a couple of combustible materials storage units with a self-contained CO2 gas flood system and a large water storage tank. This site has interconnected security systems with green KAC emergency door release (EDR) units each to manually latch open doors during an emergency e.g fire, other threat etc. accompanied by STI touchless wave sensors to temporarily open each door for a few seconds and that closes again.

The features are pictured down below.
