DOC IT Mark II Update

What makes the DOC IT hose management system even better? Doc IT Mark 2.

Doc IT has been a crowd pleaser and in the market for several years now and during that time Cana-Vac has received valuable feedback from our customers for areas of product improvement. Thus, Doc IT Mark 2 our second generation Doc IT has been engineered to improve upon it's predecessor with increased reliability and longevity.

The first thing you will notice about Mark 2 products is they have a white band on the hose. This is because Mark 2 now uses a completely different sensor mechanism. Unlike the magnetic sensor of the first generation Doc IT, the optical sensor offers precise disengagement of the retractor mechanism when it sees the white band, the same way your old VCR knew when to stop rewinding. This protects the gears from any stress damage.

Doc IT Mark 2 is now fitted with dual layer protection TVS diodes. This protects the Micro-Controller and other circuits from surges in voltage caused by lightning strikes or the discharge of static electricity at the handle when operating the key panel.

Doc IT Mark 2 firmware features ensure the proper operation of the hose management system even after brown-outs and power failures. It is now equipped with a dual 360 degree swivel, both at the handle and in the retractor for hose torque relief allowing the hose to retract into the wall freely.

The Mark 2 handle keypad has been reworked using more robust plastic supports to protect it from drops and forceful button depression and it has also been rigorously tested 24 hours a day for a cycle count of 1,500 operations at which point the hose started to show wear and the test was concluded. In real terms, this equates to nearly 30 years of weekly use for a typical household.

What it does..

The Cana-Vac Doc IT® takes care of that complaint by storing a 55 foot hose neatly inside a standard household wall cavity eliminating the need for storing the hose in a closet or the tedious task of trying to coil the hose manually. Just Doc IT® by pushing the “In” arrow on the hose and the Doc IT® system automatically winds the hose and stores it inside the wall for future use.

The hose handle remains ready for use inside the Docking station and is concealed by an attractive cover which can be refitted with custom cabinetry if preferred.

Not only is Doc IT® easy to install in both new or existing homes, it is the only hose retracting system with an electric “kink proof” hose meaning that electric attachments can be used.

What’s more is that with Doc IT® you the consumer can feed out or retract as much hose as needed! That’s right no more tripping over excess hose, simply push the arrow “up” or “down” button to extend as much or as little hose needed while cleaning.

Don’t store a hose just Doc IT!
