XLERATOR XL-WV (208V-277V) Excel Dryer High-Speed Commercial XL-WV

Description

Excel Dryer Model XL-WV Xlerator (High-Voltage 208V-277V High-Voltage) Hand Dryer
with Die-Cast Zinc Alloy Cover & Electrostatically-Applied White Epoxy Finish
In 2002, the warm-air hand dryer landscape was forever changed when the Excel Dryer Co. first introduced the Xlerator hand dryer.  As the world’s first high-speed hand dryer capable of drying the user’s hands in only 10 to 15 seconds, the Xlerator set the new standard for the entire hand dryer industr
y.
But in early 2016, the Xlerator was internally redesigned & made even better.  The motor is now variable speed motor; meaning it can be set to any speed between fastest to slowest.  Sound decreases as speed is reduced & dry time increased.  The heating element is now adjustable with four settings: high, medium, low & off.  With these two variables, the owner can customize the air flow, dry time, sound volume, and energy consumption to fit any application environment.
Both controls are accessible only when the cover is removed.
In addition, this newest generation of XLerators includes a washable metal mesh filter for more reliable performance.  A smart filter sensor is activated should the filter become clogged & is indicated by a visible red LED light.
T
here are six (6) different Xlerator models.  The internals components and performance of all six are identical.  The only difference in the Xlerator models is the material and appearance of the cover.
Specific to the Model XL-W, a zinc alloy is used to form the one-piece, die-cast heavy-duty, vandal-resistant cover.  This light weight cover is both rustproof and unbreakable.
All exposed areas of the cover are coated with chip-proof, electrostatically-applied white epoxy enamel
.
Two tamper-resistant, chrome plated bolts secure the cover to the wall plate/motor base.  The Xlerator uses a powerful “series commutated through-flow discharge vacuum motor/blower” design.
Please note that this listing is specific to the 208V to 277V motor, which is not as common of voltage as the standard 110V/120V.
It is important to note that t
he voltage does not effect the performance of the hand dryer. Higher voltage doesn't make the dryer work faster or more efficiently. The decision as to which voltage is best for your situation depends on the voltage of the existing or proposed wiring in your building and space available in your electrical panel.
Set to the highest speed (
20,000 RPM), this powerful yet extremely efficient 5/8HP motor can produce an air velocity of 19,000 lfm (linear feet per minute) at the nozzle or 16,000 lfm at hand level (approx. 4” below the nozzle).  At this highest speed, a sound level of
80 to 81 dB
is generated by the deflection of the high-speed air flow off the user’s hands
(but the variable speed motor can be dialed down to the where the sound best suits the owner's preference & installation environment)
.
Dry time is an amazing 10 to 15 seconds, which is
3 X faster than standard 30-second hand dryers. B
ut the actual length of the run cycle is determined by the user.
The motor and the NiChrome heating element are
activated by an infrared optical sensor
, a
nd as soon as the user's hands are removed from under the unit, the drying cycle is terminated.
The Xlerator heats the out-flowing air to approx.135°F (from an ambient temperature of 72°F) through a combination of the 970W heating element, friction, and the compression of the air flow.  Mounting instructions and warranty information are included.  Since its introduction, the Xlerator has been often imitated but has yet to be duplicated and remains the standard for high-speed hand dryers.
PLEASE NOTE: The Excel 40502 Recess Kit is also available from this seller. It is designed to make the Xlerator high-speed hand dryer (the XL Series) ADA compliant with the 4" protrusion requirement
for
primary walk-way or traffic corridors
.  In other words, according to ADA requirements, no item is allowed to extend out from the wall surface more than 4" if that wall is adjacent to the restroom's primary flow of traffic. Please see Item No.
