Elevator testing scheduled on campus this Wednesday
On Wednesday, Oct. 11, starting at 8:30 a.m., Plant Services will be testing the smoke detector/elevator interface in all buildings with elevators on campus. The horn/strobes for the fire system will be disconnected but there will be some beeping from the main panels. During the test, the elevator in that building will be non-operational, so occupants will need to wait or use the stairs. The test duration for each building will vary depending on the complexity of the fire system but should be about 30 to 60 minutes on average. It could take longer if we encounter a malfunction.
These tests are required by the State of Oregon and are based on a deadline, so we apologize for any inconvenience. If you know of any individual or event that would prohibit this testing, please let the Plant Services office know at ext. 2010 and we will make every effort to make accommodations.
If you have any questions or concerns, please contact the Plant Services office. Thank you for your cooperation.
