JL Industries 1547FX2 Clear Vu Fire-Rated (Fire-FX2) Semi-Recessed Fire Extinguisher Cabinet, 3" Rolled Trim, Bronze

The JL Industries 1547FX2 is a Clear Vu series semi-recessed fire extinguisher cabinet in bronze with 3" rolled trim, built around a 10-1/2" x 24" x 4" tub. It is the Fire-FX2 fire-rated version, supplied with the fire-rated tub and flange so the cabinet can be recessed into a rated wall assembly. Clear Vu is the acrylic bubble cabinet for one or two fire extinguishers. The acrylic bubble allows 180-degree extinguisher visibility and projects 2-1/2" on the 1500 Series and 3-1/2" on the 2500 and 4500 Series. Trim and door are offered in five materials - cold rolled steel, 304 stainless steel, aluminum, bronze or brass - with white powder coat, #4 stainless, clear anodized aluminum, US10 satin bronze or US3 polished brass finishes. The tub is white powder coated cold rolled steel, matching the trim material on surface mount cabinets, and the extinguisher must be mounted to the back of the tub with a J-hook.

Fits: Cosmic 2.5 lb - 10 lb, Galaxy 2.5 lb - 10 lb, Mercury 2.5 lb - 5 lb, Sentinel 5 lb (extinguisher mounts on the back of the tub).

Configure this cabinet

Door style: Acrylic Bubble, Acrylic Bubble + Saf-T-Lok. Saf-T-Lok (SL-LC) is the standard lock for most locking cabinets: a theft-deterrent keyed cylinder lock used instead of a break glass lock lever, since breaking glass in a panic can injure people and create liability. The door appears locked and is, but a sharp pull breaks or bends a replaceable plastic cam and opens it. The cam is 1-5/8" x 1" x 3/32" and is replaced with a Phillips head screwdriver.

Glazing: Clear Vu uses acrylic bubbles: 25 clear, 26 red and 27 bronze, with the red bubble available only on 15xx bubble cabinets.

Pull / handle: Pull handles are 4" CTC in finishes matching the cabinet material, with a standard zinc pull (PUS); a recessed flush pull is available on request.

Colored powder-coat finishes, magnetic catches, decorative bronze or brass pulls, Futura cast handles, wired glass and alarms are available on request — ask for a quote with your model number.

Fire-FX2 fire rating

Fire-FX2 is the fire-rated cabinet option, ordered by adding the FX2 suffix to the model number. JL Industries led the industry by introducing the first pre-lined fire-rated cabinets in 1991, and in 2015 eliminated the heavy gypsum wallboard used to line cabinets, replacing it with lightweight mineral wool insulation. The cabinets are UL tested to maintain one and two-hour fire rated wall barriers, in accordance with ANSI/UL-1479 (ASTM E814 and ULC.CAN S115) for membrane penetration firestops. That matters because cutting a cabinet opening into a rated wall is a membrane penetration. Fire-rated construction changes the rough opening, shown in brackets in every series table, and knockouts are not available on fire-rated cabinets.

Not in a rated wall? The standard version is the 1547.

Availability: built to order by JL Industries to the configuration you select. Ask us for the current lead time before you schedule an install.
