Fire Extinguishers

You will see fire extinguishers in several locations around APS.  These are only to be used by the firemen, and others who have received credit for the official ANL fire extinguisher training. Do not fight fires yourself. Call 911 in a fire situation.

Fire Alarms

APS has a two-stage fire alarm system. If you hear a fire alarm in experiment hall, proceed to the LOM (Lab-Office Module) areas. If the fire alarms are also ringing in these areas, proceed to the nearest emergency exit, and calmly make your way to the designated assembly area.

Tornado Alarms

In a tornado alarm, proceed directly to one of the rest rooms located on either side of the entrance to the nearest LOM. These also serve as the local tornado shelters.
