Automatic Sensor-Controlled Spring Hose Reel

Introducing intelligent exhaust extraction: the Automatic Sensor-Controlled Spring Hose Reel eliminates wasted energy by smartly activating the fan only when the hose is in use. Pull down the hose — the fan starts. Retract the hose — the fan stops. This pull-down activation sensor technology reduces electricity costs by up to 40% compared to continuously-running systems, delivering rapid ROI for European workshops facing high energy prices.

Smart Technology Features

• Pull-Down Sensor Activation: Integrated proximity sensor in the drum housing detects hose extension and automatically starts the 1.1KW blower — no manual switches, no forgotten fans running overnight
• Auto-Stop on Retraction: When the hose fully retracts, the sensor triggers a 3-second soft-stop sequence that powers down the motor, eliminating energy waste and reducing noise
• 40% Energy Reduction: Independent testing shows 35-42% lower electricity consumption versus continuously-running extraction systems in typical workshop duty cycles
• 1.1KW High-Efficiency Motor: IE3 premium efficiency class motor delivers 1,500 m³/h airflow while consuming less power than conventional 1.5KW units
• Soft-Start Circuitry: Protects the motor from voltage spikes and extends service life — especially important in workshops with unstable power supply
• Manual Override Mode: A dedicated switch allows continuous fan operation for extended ventilation needs, such as after painting or chemical cleaning

FAQ

Q: Does the sensor work reliably in dusty workshop environments?
A: Yes, the sealed inductive sensor is immune to dust, grease, and moisture — designed for harsh workshop conditions.

Q: What happens if the sensor fails?
A: Manual override switch allows continuous operation. The sensor module is field-replaceable in under 10 minutes.
