JL Industries Sentinel 10 10 lb CO2 Fire Extinguisher (FS10C)
FSP · P-02
What it is
JL Industries Sentinel 10 (FS10C) is a 10 lb portable fire extinguisher charged with liquid carbon dioxide under pressure and UL rated 10B:C for Class B and C fires. It stands 19-3/4" tall and 12" wide over the hose and handle, on a 7" diameter cylinder, and ships at 27.75 lb. The cylinder is lightweight high-pressure aluminum with a straight thread brass valve, with a visual pressure gauge and pull pin. The operating temperature range is -22°F (-30°C) to 120°F (49°C). A J-hook wall bracket ships with it as standard, and the Mark MB810C bracket is available separately. Carbon dioxide displaces oxygen, so JL says care should be exercised in confined areas.
The JL Industries FS10C is the Sentinel 10, a 10 lb portable fire extinguisher in JL's Sentinel series, charged with liquid carbon dioxide under pressure and UL rated 10B:C for Class B and C fires. It is specified for offices, classrooms, retail spaces and research facilities where an electrically non-conductive clean agent is wanted. The discharge changes into a gas and appears as a cloud of white snow, directed at the fire through a funnel-shaped horn. It is electrically non-conductive and leaves no residue.

- Charging: Ships factory charged.
- Application limits: Carbon dioxide discharges as a gas with small particles of snow at extremely low temperatures and will displace oxygen, so care should be exercised in confined areas.
JL's catalog lists this extinguisher as compatible with the following cabinet tub sizes:
- 12" x 27" x 7-3/4" tub (2000 series); the catalog notes the 10 lb unit must be mounted to the tub
- 16" x 32" x 7-3/4" tub (3000 series)
Sized to the cabinet tables in JL's fire protection catalog. JL's cabinet selection guide asks for at least 1" of clearance in height, width and depth over the extinguisher's own dimensions.
The optional Mark MB810C mounting bracket for this model is listed on the JL Industries MB810C bracket page.
