“Old School” IBM Fire Alarm System
Posted on May 14th, 2010 by admin
This is literally an “Old School” fire alarm system. It is the original fire alarm system that was installed when the school was built in 1955. This thing is a workhorse.
This is an IBM 4201-4 fire alarm panel. It operates only when a pull station is activated, and the system will continue to run until the station is reset. Through the relays and the coded wheel, the system clacks out pulses to the single stroke bells.
The system has a Simplex 4004 panel tied to it that operates pull stations and horns in a modular. You will hear the 4004 go into alarm first which then trips the IBM system. Notice the wheel at the bottom that turns and fires the bell circuits (watch closely and you’ll see some tiny sparks). Once the pull station is reset, it continues to do 4 more rounds until it times out.
IBM sold it’s fire alarm line to Simplex in 1958.
The system is up for replacement next summer with a Simplex 4100U.

This is a demonstration of the Wireless Honeywell “Lynx” Security Alarm System, exclusive to Watch24 Security Services Australia. Honeywell wireless technology is the “Rolls Royce” of security equipment, far superior than cheap clones or DIY systems, but still extremely affordable. Unlike outdated hard-wired alarms, installation is quick and clean and is usually completed within 48 hours.
This home security alarm system uses cellular technology. A burglar cannot defeat this alarm system by cutting the phone line outside the home. The system will operate off a rechargeable battery if the AC power is cut. The main control unit is silent, and can be hidden in the home. The remote motion detectors are wireless. A remote wireless inside siren will alert and distract the burglar. The equipment is manufactured by GE Security. Visit our website: www.Guardcom.net
