The drawing below shows two reels with different shapes and
dimensions but with identical hose capacity. In most cases, more
than one reel will handle the size and length of hose you need, so
you can specify a reel to fit your space requirements.

THE SIZE, LENGTH AND TYPE OF HOSE TO BE
HANDLED ARE PRIMARY FACTORS IN SELECTING
THE PROPER REEL FOR YOUR JOB. THE FOLLOWING
POINTS SHOULD BE CONSIDERED:
1. HOSE I.D., O.D. & LENGTH
When space permits, select a reel with greater hose capacity than you
require. This allows you to rewind the hose with less care and keeps the
hose well protected within the disc dimension, even if the hose is not
wound in uniform coils. (See hose selection chart below)
2. SIZE & TYPE OF SWIVEL JOINT & SEAL FOR
I
NLET & OUTLET
In selecting your reel please note the size of your hose versus the inlet
and outlet sizes. Reducing your fitting & hose size will allow for more hose
capacity. Please refer to the o-ring seal compatibility chart on page 50 for
special application requirements.
3. RETRACTION METHOD & PROPER USE
Choose from Spring Driven, Hand Crank or Motor Driven retraction.
SPRING DRIVEN: Automatic rewind requiring no power source. Operator is
to guide the hose or cord as it self-retracts and wraps around the drum.
For models to be mounted 15 feet above the floor, consult factory &
specify on P.O.’s for proper spring retraction motor.
HAND CRANK: Operator must manually crank the reel and guide
the hose or cord evenly as it wraps around the drum to reach
full capacity.
MOTOR DRIVEN: Requires a power source to operate in AC, DC, Air or
Hydraulic power. On/Off switches and speed controllers are available to
help control retraction speed. You must guide the hose or cord efficiently
back on the reel to reach full capacity.
4. MOUNTING POSITION
Determine which mounting position you require. All reels are shipped in
the floor-ceiling mount (FM) position with the exception of the “T,” “EN,”
and “SD” Series, which are shipped in the wall-truck mount (WM) position.
See diagram to the right for the “SP & DP” Series as well.
5. CHOOSE TYPE OF HOSE
Consider temperature, product type and pressure required (PSI).
Always use good quality hose rated for the service and operating pressure
required. Poor quality hose tends to expand and contract under pressure
surges. When this happens, hose remaining on the reel may bind and
become difficult to handle. In extreme cases, poor quality hose may
expand under pressure to the extent that the reel becomes distorted and
inoperable.
6. ADDITIONAL OPTIONS
Customize your reel to meet your exact requirements.
Once you select
your reel type consider the different add-on features such as roller brackets,
special mounting brackets, carry handles or a cart for portability. See the
options available indicated on each page.
