How the Innovative XLERATOR Eco is Setting a New Sustainability Standard in Restrooms Everywhere
The humble hand dryer has come a long way over the years. Once known for being slow, weak, and ear-piercingly loud, modern hand dryers have evolved into sophisticated, high-speed machines that are faster, quieter, and more energy efficient. But no hand dryer has pushed the boundaries of green technology further than the revolutionary XLERATOR Eco from Excel Dryer. With its industry-leading energy savings, powerful performance, and eco-friendly design, the XLERATOR Eco is setting a new sustainability benchmark for hand drying.
So what makes the XLERATOR Eco such a game-changing product? Let’s take a closer look at how this innovative hand dryer is helping to reduce waste, lower energy costs, and deliver an exceptional user experience unlike any other dryer.
How the XLERATOR Eco Hand Dryer Works
The XLERATOR Eco utilizes Excel Dryer’s patented XLERATOR technology to deliver a high-velocity column of air flowing at 430 mph (690 km/h) to dry hands quickly and efficiently. This focused airstream allows hands to dry in 8-10 seconds, reducing hand drying time by over 50% compared to traditional hand dryers.
The XLERATOR Eco is enabled by a 1/5 HP motor that generates this powerful airstream while still operating at a significantly lower wattage than conventional hand dryers. Adjustable speed and heat controls allow owners to customize the performance to their environment. The Eco model offers cold air hand drying as the default setting, with an optional high heat setting available with the flip of a switch.
Key to the XLERATOR Eco’s industry-leading energy efficiency is its advanced sensor-activated operation. The dryer automatically turns on when hands are placed in the drying zone, then turns off after hands are removed. This on-demand activation minimizes energy consumption and prevents the dryer from needlessly running when not in use.
Why the XLERATOR Eco is the Most Eco-Friendly Hand Dryer
So what sets the XLERATOR Eco apart from other green hand dryers? With its array of eco-conscious features, it offers an unrivaled combination of performance and sustainability.
Extreme Energy Efficiency
The XLERATOR Eco consumes only 1100 watts at its peak airspeed, compared to the 1800-3000W demand of conventional hand dryers. This represents up to an 80% reduction in energy consumption, saving thousands of dollars in utility costs each year. The Eco model has achieved UL Environment certification with 97% less energy use than standard dryers.
Low Power Mode
In its default setting, the XLERATOR Eco operates in a low-energy cold air mode, using only 500W to dry hands efficiently. This low power mode makes the Eco model appropriate for Energy Star certification.
Automatic Sensor Operation
The motion-sensor activation ensures the dryer only operates when needed, further slashing energy waste. Studies show sensor operation reduces dryer run time by over 70% compared to push-button models.
Eco-Friendly Components
Nearly all components in the XLERATOR Eco can be recycled, keeping over 40lbs of waste out of landfills with every dryer. The cover is made of recyclable zinc-aluminum alloy.
HEPA Filtration System
A hospital-grade HEPA filter removes over 99% of viruses and bacteria from the airstream, promoting better hygiene while filtering out dust. The filter is long lasting and can be washed to extend its usable life.
Powerful Performance with Lower Noise
In developing the XLERATOR Eco, Excel Dryer engineered it not just for sustainability, but also for delivering an exceptional user experience.
Rapid 10-Second Drying Time
Thanks to its high-speed airstream, the XLERATOR Eco typically dries hands completely in just 8-10 seconds. This represents over 50% faster dry times than conventional dryers. Users spend less time waiting at the sink and facilities experience less crowding and congestion.
Quieter Operation
Through advanced aerodynamic engineering, the XLERATOR Eco generates only 68 decibels of sound output on its high heat speed setting. This is significantly quieter than traditional dryers which can output up to 90 dB. Even users sensitive to noise will appreciate the Eco model’s more discreet operation.
Customizable Performance
The adjustable heat control allows owners to select the ideal setting for their facility – from cold air drying for maximum efficiency, to a higher heat for colder climates. The airspeed is also adjustable up to a max of 430 mph.
ADA Compliance
With its sensor positioned lower on the dryer, the XLERATOR Eco provides ADA-compliant access for wheelchair users. The low-profile design also complies with accessibility guidelines.
Durable Construction
Made from thick die-cast zinc, the XLERATOR Eco is built to withstand the demands of high-traffic facilities. The dryer’s components are electronically protected from voltage fluctuations for added reliability and longevity.
The Bottom Line: Exceptional Value for Any Facility
With its peerless blend of eco-intelligence and performance, the game-changing XLERATOR Eco delivers unmatched value for facility owners.
Rapid ROI
The XLERATOR Eco provides a return on investment in less than 3 years for most facilities, thanks to its substantial energy savings and operational efficiency. Facility managers can realize over $1,100 USD in annual cost savings by switching from conventional dryers.
Low Maintenance Needs
The XLERATOR Eco is designed for hassle-free maintenance, with builtin diagnostics to identify potential issues before they arise. The removable reservoir simplifies drain cleaning. Overall maintenance costs are up to 80% lower than other dryers.
Available Incentives
Facilities can take advantage of rebates, tax credits, and incentives for installing the XLERATOR Eco and reducing their environmental impact. These can allow owners to recoup over 50% of the equipment cost.
Future-Proof Investment
With its advanced green construction, the XLERATOR Eco is a hand drying solution that’s built to last. The flexible settings allow it to adapt to any future changes in a facility’s requirements.
For facility managers looking to slash dryer energy usage, operating costs, and environmental footprint without sacrificing performance, the XLERATOR Eco represents the new gold standard in high-speed hand drying. Its cutting-edge design resolves the major pain points of traditional dryers to deliver the ultimate sustainable solution. As hand dryer technology continues advancing, the groundbreaking XLERATOR Eco proves the future of high-performance green hand drying is already here.
