High flow and low pressure drop maximises output
Fluid power specialists Tom Parker Ltd have introduced a new range of CEJN safety hose reels for compressed air , water , and electricity , in their 2020-2021 catalogue . In today ’ s productivity driven environment , Tom Parker Ltd ’ s emphasis on quality , safety and performance make the CEJN brand the ideal choice for safety reels . With their additional products : hoses , couplings and blowguns , it is the most optimised system on the market .
From a safety perspective , the team at CEJN evaluated different reels on the market , looking into injuries suffered by people and harm to the environment . Four areas were highlighted : hose retraction , hose replacement , stopballs and locking features . The most dangerous aspect of a hose reel is the spring force during rewinding . CEJN ’ s new safety reel is equipped with a sturdy centrifugal brake in the drum , combined with a strong spring force , giving a slow and steady retraction , which is both safe for the people and objects nearby in the workplace . Also highlighted were the risks and difficulties of changing a hose . When a casing is opened , severe injury to the user can be caused by the strong embedded tension of the metal spiral within . To combat this , CEJN safety reels feature an encapsulated spring cassette to protect the user if the reel needs to be dismantled . CEJN ’ s new design no longer requires a user to dismantle the reel to change a hose ; meaning the task takes under a minute and is completely safe .
CEJN is committed to producing superior performing products . During the product development stage of the safety reel , the design team had one main ambition : to create a reel where flow limitations and pressure drop were virtually eliminated . Today they proudly offer a solution that is almost twice as effective as the standard reel when it comes to performance . CEJN ’ s focus on performance aims to create solutions that help customers save money . In addition to perfecting performance in their product design , fittings and transition are optimised to eliminate pressure drop , leakage and system loss , to help maximise tool efficiency . As the hose can be easily changed if damaged , the reel can last much longer than most other reels on the market . By investing in a CEJN safety reel , a product is purchased that will last for years to come .
From a quality perspective , CEJN ’ s primary goal has been to create the best and most durable reel on the market . Reels adapted for industrial use take advantage of premium materials chosen to withstand outdoor use , UV radiation , chemicals , and resistance to wear . To maximise durability , all materials have been tested for high and low friction , to find the combination that provides the longest life span .
Tom Parker Ltd offer CEJN safety reels that provide a high flow and low pressure drop to maximise output . The patented closed safety reels are developed and manufactured in Sweden . All designed with CEJN ’ s core company values : safety , performance , quality , innovation and protecting the environment . CEJN : the future of high performance hose reels , available from Tom Parker Ltd .
