Coxreels 1175-6-135-EJ Electric 230V AC Explosion Proof Motor Rewind Hose Reel | 1175 Series | 1" Hose Diameter | 135' Hose Length | 3000 Max PSI | Less Hose

Many industrial facilities outside North America and a significant number of US process plants, marine installations, and heavy industrial sites run on 230-volt single-phase AC power rather than the 115V circuits common in standard North American shops. When those facilities operate in classified hazardous locations and need motorized hose management across 135 feet of 1-inch ID hose at 3,000 PSI, the Coxreels 1175-6-135-EJ is the purpose-built answer. It carries a 230V AC, 1/2 HP explosion-proof reversible AC-rectified motor (an AC-powered motor whose supply is internally converted to DC for the motor windings, enabling reversible operation motorized pay-out and retraction from a standard 230V AC circuit, housed in an enclosure rated for classified hazardous locations) on the full 1175 Series large-chassis welded steel frame, with AFLAS swivel seals on the nickel-plated 90° NPT inlet, CNC-spun ribbed discs, permanently lubricated pillow block bearings, and chain and sprocket drive. For facilities where plugging a 115V reel into a 230V circuit is not an option, the -EJ provides the same 1/2 HP explosion-proof reversible capability as the -EA at the voltage the site actually runs.

Features

• 230V AC, 1/2 HP explosion-proof reversible AC-rectified motor with chain & sprocket drive rated for classified hazardous locations; connects to 230V single-phase AC circuits without voltage conversion or step-down transformer
• Reversible AC-rectified motor operation AC supply internally converted to DC for motor windings, enabling powered hose pay-out and retraction from a single 230V AC circuit and control switch
• AFLAS swivel seals on the nickel-plated steel 90° full-flow NPT swivel inlet rated to 250°F with broad chemical resistance; no need to remove the reel from its mount for seal maintenance or hose installation
• Exclusive low-profile outlet riser and open drum slot design provides a non-crimping, flat smooth hose wrap around the drum
• Heavy-duty CNC robotically spun and ribbed discs with rolled edges for greater strength, durability, hose protection, and operator safety
• Sturdy one-piece, all CNC robotically welded 12-gauge steel A-frame base not bolted for superior reel structure; mounting pattern in base for wall, ceiling, or overhead installation
• Permanently lubricated, self-aligning pillow block bearings for trouble-free, smooth drum rotation over extended service life
• Adjustable tension brake prevents free-wheeling during hose deployment; long-handled locking pin secures drum during transport or storage
• Long-lasting chip-resistant, rust-inhibiting CPC powder coat finish; 2-year manufacturer's limited warranty

Applications

• International & export industrial facilities process plants, refineries, and manufacturing operations outside North America running 230V single-phase AC infrastructure where 115V-rated reels are incompatible with available circuits
• Marine & offshore installations vessels, platforms, and port facilities operating on 230V AC shore power or ship's service power in classified hazardous zones where explosion-proof motor ratings are mandated
• Chemical & petrochemical plants with 230V infrastructure fixed overhead air supply or fluid transfer stations in classified locations where 230V single-phase service is the standard facility voltage
• Oil & gas production facilities wellhead, compressor station, and processing plant installations in classified areas where 230V AC distribution is in use and explosion-proof rated motorized hose management is required
• Heavy industrial MRO in 230V classified zones plant maintenance stations in refineries, paper mills, or large process facilities where classified-area requirements and 230V distribution rule out the 115V -EA variant

FAQs

Q: What is the difference between the "-EJ" and the "-EA" variant?
A: The -EA and -EJ are functionally identical both are 1/2 HP explosion-proof reversible AC-rectified motors on the same 1175 Series frame with AFLAS seals and chain and sprocket drive. The only difference is the supply voltage: the -EA runs on 115V AC (North American standard shop circuits) and the -EJ runs on 230V AC. Choose the -EJ when the available circuit at the installation point is 230V single-phase and a step-down transformer is not practical or desired.

Q: What does "AC Rectified" mean on this motor?
A: AC rectification converts the incoming alternating current to direct current inside the motor housing. This allows the motor to run in both directions (reversible operation) from a standard AC supply and control switch without requiring a separate DC power source or battery system. The result is a reversible, explosion-proof motor that wires directly into a 230V AC circuit like any other AC device.

Q: Can this reel be used on a 240V circuit in North America?
A: North American 240V single-phase service (commonly used for large HVAC equipment, electric dryers, and some industrial machinery) is nominally compatible with a 230V-rated motor voltage tolerances on most industrial motors accept ±10% of the nameplate rating. However, confirm with a licensed electrician that your specific 240V circuit and the motor's voltage tolerance range are compatible before installation, particularly in a classified hazardous location where wiring errors carry additional risk.

Q: Does the reel come with hose included?
A: No the 1175-6-135-EJ ships less hose. The drum accepts 1" ID / 1-7/16" OD hose up to 135 feet. Select hose rated for your working pressure, media, and temperature (up to 3,000 PSI and 250°F) and compatible with your specific application fluid before installation.

Q: What wiring and conduit is required for the explosion-proof motor in a classified location?
A: The motor enclosure carries an explosion-proof rating, but a compliant installation in a classified hazardous location requires that all conduit, wiring methods, junction boxes, and switching devices in the circuit also meet the NEC Article 501 or 502 requirements or the equivalent international standard (IEC 60079 for ATEX-classified installations) for the applicable Class, Division, and Group of the site. Confirm the complete installation design with a licensed electrician experienced in hazardous location wiring before proceeding.
