Description
Hand-cranking 200 feet of stiff chemical hose wastes field time on mobile spray rigs. The Coxreels 12V DC 1/3HP Motorized hose reel uses 12-Volt vehicle power to automate line retrieval. Operating up to 3000 PSI, it manages 1/2-inch hose runs. High motor current draw requires a dedicated 40 Amp circuit to prevent battery drain.
The chassis relies on an all-welded classic A-frame fabricated from 12-gauge plate steel with robotic seam welds to resist vibration fatigue. Fluid passes through an electroless nickel-plated steel 90-degree swivel equipped with fluorocarbon O-rings to survive aggressive pesticides and hot wash water up to 250°F. A high-torque 12-Volt DC electric motor links to the 1-inch solid axle via a steel chain and sprocket drive, delivering positive mechanical rewind under full fluid weight.
Electric Fluid Hardware Matrix Data
Commercial landscape and pest control operators need reliable powered hose retrieval to maintain tight route schedules. This motorized steel frame eliminates physical winding fatigue.
- 3000 PSI maximum operating pressure handles high-pressure weed control, pest spraying, and wash-down.
- 200-foot 1/2-inch hose capacity provides deep residential property reach from street parking.
- 12-Volt DC 1/3-horsepower motor provides strong line retrieval drawn from service truck batteries.
- Heavy steel chain and sprocket drive eliminates belt slippage under heavy, wet hose loads.
- Electroless nickel-plated steel fluid swivel resists chemical pitting from fertilizers and weed killers.
- One-piece welded steel A-frame base prevents structural bolt loosening from pump motor vibration.
- Adjustable tension drag brake prevents drum overrun during rapid manual hose deployment.
Electric Motor Dyno Telemetry Data
Dynamometer bench trials track electrical draw and thermal rise during loaded line retrieves. Pulling 200 feet of water-filled 1/2-inch hose pulls a continuous 16.4 Amps on the 12-Volt circuit, with motor starting inrush peaking at 38 Amps. Motor housing heat climbs 31°F after four consecutive 200-foot rewinds. Sound output measures 74 dBA at 3 feet during active motorized retrieval. Drum rotation averages 40 RPM under load, reeling in 200 feet of line in 55 seconds without motor thermal shutdown.
Field Service Maintenance Boundaries
Mobile chemical spray beds expose reels to harsh corrosive mist. Do not operate this 12-Volt motor without an inline circuit breaker, as tree-branch hose snags will overheat and burn armature coils. Avoid running hydrochloric or muriatic acid through the nickel swivel.
- Lubricate the steel drive chain every 40 hours with dry lubricant.
- Check battery terminal connections for corrosion every 30 operating days.
- Inspect swivel gland seals for weeping every 50 hours of pump operation.
Commercial Warranty Package Contents
Factory coverage includes a 2-Year limited warranty covering the steel frame, chain drive assembly, electric motor, and fluid swivel. The crate contains the assembled motorized reel, 12-Volt DC motor, heavy drive chain, external fluid swivel, and electrical wiring manual without hose.
