Description
Hand-cranking 135 feet of stiff dual hydraulic hose off service crane masts exhausts field mechanics. The Coxreels Dual Hydraulic Electric Motorized reel spools twin-line hydraulic fluid lines using a 12-Volt DC electric motor drive. Rated for 3000 PSI, it feeds rescue tools and boom attachments. Electric motor brushes burn out if operators drag pinched hose lines under low voltage.
Coxreels welds this heavy chassis from thick cold-rolled steel plate with solid steel tie rods to resist drum crushing under high line tension. The fluid path incorporates a dual-port machined steel swivel with fluorocarbon O-rings rated for continuous 3000 PSI hydraulic oil duty. A 12-Volt DC electric gear motor connects to the main drum shaft through a chain and sprocket drive. Sealed pillow block bearings support the main axle against side-pull distortion.
Field Hardware Performance Matrix
Aerial utility trucks and heavy rescue equipment require motorized twin-line hydraulic retraction without hose binding. Heavy-gauge welded steel frames and high-pressure dual swivels maintain hydraulic power delivery to remote cutting heads.
- 12-Volt DC electric gear motor delivers high-torque drum retrieval for 135 feet of dual-bonded hydraulic hose.
- 3000 PSI operating pressure rating supports high-pressure hydraulic rescue tools and utility crane circuits.
- Dual-port machined steel swivel routes pressure and return fluid lines together without internal cross-leaks.
- Heavy-gauge all-steel A-frame chassis resists twisting under off-angle hose extraction loads.
- Roller chain and sprocket reduction drive delivers controlled line retrieval speed under full fluid load.
- Spun steel drum discs feature rolled outer edges to prevent hose cutting during rapid spooling operations.
- Push-button momentary electric switch controls motor engagement without requiring manual hand cranking.
Dyno Load Realities Heat Data
Under continuous spool retraction tests carrying 135 feet of charged 1/4-inch twin hydraulic hose, the 12-Volt motor draws 28 Amps under load. Motor casing temperature climbs to 149°F after 3 consecutive full-length line retrievals in an 85°F shop environment. Pumping ISO 46 hydraulic fluid at 2500 PSI produces an 18 PSI pressure drop through the dual-port swivel block. Chain drive deflection measures 0.25 inches under full load torque. Battery voltage drops under 11.0 Volts cause motor stalling on steep grade pulls.
Field Service Application Limits
Weighing 85 pounds bare, installing this motorized reel on service truck cranes requires crane assistance and grade 8 bolts. Do not use this reel for high-pressure water blasting, pneumatic transfer, or corrosive chemical delivery. Aqueous fluids corrode the carbon steel fluid hub, causing catastrophic hydraulic system contamination.
- Lubricate the motor drive chain with dry graphite spray every 100 operating hours to stop link galling.
- Inspect the dual-port swivel seals for hydraulic fluid leaks every 250 hours of crane operation.
- Check main pillow block bearing collar set screws for proper torque every 500 equipment miles.
