XLERATOR XL-SB High Speed Hand Dryer with Stainless Steel Cover

Description

Product Overview

The XLERATOR XL-SB Automatic High Speed Hand Dryer is engineered for demanding commercial environments where speed, durability, and energy efficiency are paramount. Housed in a one‑piece brushed stainless steel cover, the unit resists rust, wear, and accidental damage, ensuring a long service life even in high‑traffic restrooms. Powered by a 12.5 A motor at 110/120 V, the dryer generates a high‑velocity air stream that can dry hands in 10‑15 seconds—approximately three times faster than conventional hand dryers. An infrared optical sensor detects the presence of hands and automatically activates the motor, then shuts off after 35 seconds or when the hands are removed, minimizing unnecessary power consumption. The dryer meets GreenSpec standards and qualifies for LEED credits, reflecting its low‑energy design and reduced waste footprint. Dimensions of 6.69 × 11.75 × 12.69 inches and a weight of 16 lb make it suitable for surface‑mount installation without requiring extensive structural support.

Usage

This hand dryer is ideal for a wide range of commercial and institutional settings, including office buildings, hospitals, schools, airports, hotels, and retail stores. Its rapid drying capability helps maintain high traffic flow, reducing queues and improving overall restroom efficiency. The infrared sensor ensures hands are dried only when needed, which is especially valuable in environments where energy costs are closely monitored. The stainless steel exterior not only adds a sleek, modern aesthetic but also simplifies cleaning—important in healthcare and food‑service locations where hygiene standards are strict. Installation is straightforward: the unit mounts directly to the wall, and the integrated wiring accommodates standard 110/120 V circuits, making it compatible with existing electrical infrastructure. Users benefit from a touch‑free experience that reduces cross‑contamination, while facility managers appreciate the low maintenance requirements and the ability to claim sustainability credits.
