Retractable Reel

STS retractable reel provides optimum cable management by retracting the cable for safe storage between uses. Avoids the risk of damage and premature wear of your grounding cables. If purchased with a grounding station, a quick connect is installed to make installation easier and faster than ever. All reels are supplied with a field adjustable cable stop, so operators can custom set how much cable is retracted.

Heavy Duty

Built entirely out of steel, the heavy duty retractable reel is optimal for harsh environments where excessive wear and tear may occur. Easy to install and easy to operate, this can use cable lengths from 25 ft. to 100 ft. The reels have either fully automatic or ratchet controlled spring rewind. This rugged and watertight design is best for applications such as mounted to trucks or not protected by a roof.

Standard Duty

Our standard duty retractable reel is built from cast aluminum, which is lighter and smaller than our heavy duty reel. Easy to install and easy to operate, this can use cable lengths from 25 ft. to 50 ft. Our standard duty reels have ratchet controlled spring rewind for precise distances. Built to meet a NEMA 4 rating, this style reel is best for areas where there is slight protection from physical damage, such as on the ceiling or behind a concrete barricade.

Deadman Control

This option is offered to insure an operator has not left a product transfer process unattended. The Deadman Control includes a separate cable with one of two style handles (DMS-14 or DMS-15).

Standard

Our standard Deadman Control option requires the handle to be activated in addition to an acceptable ground to enable the permissive interlock circuits in the ground monitoring system. As soon as an operator depresses the handle, the system will open all contacts and indicate a red light.

Timing Feature

The enhanced Deadman option is to also have an integrated timer to ensure the operator has not defeated the deadman control by tampering with the handle. After an adjustable time delay (15 seconds to 10 minutes) the operator must reactivate the handle to continue.
