COXREELS® Spring Driven Reels feature an enclosed factory-tuned and matched cartridge-style spring motor for safe & easy maintenance. The spring loaded tension enables the reel to automatically self-retract hose, cord, or cable without the need for external power, making them a great cost-effective alternative to motor driven reels.

Air compressors are uniquely tied to atmospheric conditions. Wintry weather brings the risk of freezing lines, sluggish oil and water condensation, while summer brings heat that can damage equipment across your entire compressed air system.

In this blog post, Kaishan addresses how to overcome the key concerns for both cold & hot weather extremes.

Exotic Air Systems works to ensure your systems are operating at maximum efficiency & aren’t suspectable to common energy wasters, including:

• Air Leaks – Undetected leaks can waste 20–30% of compressed air energy. Regular leak detection and repairs are essential to reduce this costly inefficiency.
• Inefficient Tools or Applications – Using the wrong tools or inefficient compressed air applications can significantly increase energy consumption. Optimizing these processes can cut energy use by up to 30%.
• Excessive Pressure – Reducing discharge pressure by just 2 psi can lower energy use by 1% – leading to an overall operating cost savings of up to 1.6%.
• Wasted Heat – Without a heat recovery system, valuable thermal energy is lost. A well-designed system can recover 50–90% of this energy for heating air or water.

Exotic’s free air audits provide you with an in-depth review of your system covering everything from leak detection to efficiency analysis.
