Specialist Class F Protection for Commercial Kitchens
When a commercial kitchen needs dedicated protection against cooking oil and fat fires, the Jactone Premium 6 Litre Wet Chemical Fire Extinguisher with Hose (EWCS6HFF) gives you a purpose-designed solution for one of the most demanding fire risks found in catering environments. The extinguisher is specifically designed for Class F fires involving cooking oils and fats, while also providing protection against Class A fires, making it suitable for professional kitchens, restaurants, cafés, canteens and other catering operations. Jactone specifies the extinguisher as suitable for fat fryers with up to 75 litres of oil capacity.
The hose configuration provides an alternative to the lance version, with the discharge assembly connected to the extinguisher by a flexible hose. The EWCS6HFF has a 75F | 13A fire rating, uses nitrogen gas as the propellant, operates at 8 bar at 20°C and has an average discharge time of 46.7 seconds. With a 6 litre capacity and filled weight of approximately 10.7kg, it provides substantial Class F protection in a format designed specifically for professional catering applications.
PFAS-Free Wet Chemical Technology
The EWCS6HFF forms part of Jactone’s Eco PLUS PFAS-free range, containing no persistent fluorochemicals. For businesses reviewing their kitchen fire protection equipment, this provides a modern fluorine-free wet chemical option while retaining dedicated Class F performance. Jactone states that its PFAS-free extinguishers are intended to help reduce long-term environmental pollution and support more sustainable fire protection.
The extinguisher is manufactured with a quality deep-drawn cylinder, high-quality heavy-duty brass valve and thermoplastic lining, with colour-coded components for straightforward identification. The spray nozzle complies with the dielectric test requirements of BS EN3-7, Clause 9, while the range is LPCB certified to BS EN3 and UKCA and CE marked.

Designed for the Demands of Commercial Catering
Kitchen fire protection needs to be matched to the particular hazards present, and a Class F-rated wet chemical extinguisher is specifically intended for cooking oil and fat fires. The EWCS6HFF is therefore a specialist piece of equipment for customers who need dedicated protection around deep-fat fryers and commercial cooking equipment, rather than relying on a general-purpose extinguisher that is not designed for this risk. Jactone’s stated suitability for fryers containing up to 75 litres of oil makes the capacity particularly relevant to larger commercial catering installations.
The extinguisher measures approximately 517mm high and 160mm in diameter, with a filled weight of around 10.7kg, and is specified for use between +5°C and +60°C. This should be considered when planning its installation and accessibility within the kitchen environment.
The hose version is particularly useful where you want the flexibility of a hose-mounted discharge arrangement rather than the fixed lance supplied with the alternative EWCS6FF model.
