Description
Operating separate hose reels for high-pressure wash and compressed air crowds compact service truck beds. The Coxreels Dual Purpose Spring Driven hose reel incorporates two independent spools on a single frame, holding 30 feet of 1/2-inch hose per side. Rated at 3000 PSI, it manages dual fluids. Dual spring tension increases physical pull effort.
The dual-pedestal chassis uses 1/4-inch heavy steel plate arms welded to a reinforced 10-gauge baseplate to stop torsional twisting. Two separate electroless nickel-plated steel swivels feature nitrile packings, keeping fluid streams isolated up to 3000 PSI without cross-leakage. Dual independent center-mounted power springs permit either hose to deploy or retract without affecting the opposite spool. Solid steel axles ride on sealed precision ball bearings, providing balanced rotational movement under heavy tension.
Dual Purpose Hardware Matrix Data
Compact service truck bodies need multiple fluid services without sacrificing limited deck space. This dual-drum architecture manages two independent fluid circuits side by side.
- 3000 PSI maximum operating pressure handles high-pressure wash water, hydraulic oil, or compressed air.
- Dual 30-foot 1/2-inch hose spools provide independent reach for separate fluids on one mounting base.
- Two independent electroless nickel-plated steel swivels eliminate fluid cross-contamination between circuits.
- Dual-pedestal heavy steel frame prevents structural distortion during simultaneous angled hose pulls.
- Independent cartridge-style spring motors permit separate hose deployment and retraction cycles.
- Multi-position locking pawls hold chosen line lengths on either spool without ratchet slipping.
- Dual 4-way roller guide assemblies protect outer hose jackets from abrasive frame edge wear.
Hydraulic Rig Dyno Telemetry Data
Dynamic bench analysis measures flow separation and pressure drops across both independent fluid passages. Pushing 10 GPM water through one side and 40 CFM air through the other at working pressures shows zero cross-port leakage. Swivel body temperatures rise by 16°F on the water circuit after two hours of continuous cycling. Acoustic monitoring records 71 dBA at 3 feet during spring rewind. Each spring motor produces 24 inch-pounds of retraction force, drawing 30 feet of heavy hose across shop floors without line stall.
Field Service Maintenance Boundaries
Mobile service rigs subject dual reels to high vibration and dust. Do not connect either circuit to ultra-high-pressure hydraulic tools exceeding 3000 PSI, as internal swivel seals will blow out under shock pressures. Avoid running aggressive acids that pit the carbon steel drum discs.
- Inspect swivel seals for fluid weeping every 40 operating hours.
- Apply lithium grease to ratchet teeth and latch pawls every 90 days.
- Check base mounting bolt torque every 250 miles on rough terrain.
Commercial Warranty Package Contents
Factory terms include a 2-Year limited warranty against structural metal cracks, drive spring breakage, and swivel casting defects. The shipping crate contains the assembled dual-drum steel reel, two nickel-plated fluid swivels, two 4-way roller guide assemblies, two rubber hose stops, and installation manuals without hoses.
