Product Overview
Intelligent customization redefines vertical transportation
An automatic passenger elevator is a standard modern lift equipped with features that allow it to operate without the need for an attendant. The key characteristic is the use of powered, automatic sliding doors on both the elevator car and the landings, controlled by sophisticated sensors and logic. This automatic door system ensures smooth, predictable opening and closing, greatly enhancing safety and passenger flow efficiency compared to manual-door lifts. The elevator's operation is governed by a microprocessor-based control system that manages the selection of calls, car dispatch, speed control (typically VVVF), and accurate leveling.
These systems typically employ traction drive mechanisms for efficiency and speed. The control logic is designed to optimize service, minimizing waiting times through collective control—responding to calls in the direction of travel. Advanced systems can incorporate Destination Control Systems (DCS) to further reduce transit time in high-density buildings. Safety remains paramount, with features like light curtain door protection, automatic rescue devices, and emergency communication systems being standard components.

Product Advantages
Why choose Tenau elevators?
Enhanced Passenger Experience
Smooth, precise operation and quick, automatic doors eliminate manual effort and contribute to a feeling of comfort and technological reliability for users.
Optimized Traffic Flow
The collective control system efficiently services multiple calls and reduces passenger waiting and travel times, particularly in busy commercial environments.
Product Features
Innovative technology, superior experience
- Automatic Re-leveling: The lift automatically adjusts the car position to the landing floor if the load changes or thermal drift occurs while the doors are open, ensuring safe entry/exit.
- Door Nudging Feature: A programmable safety feature that, after a period of obstruction, slowly attempts to close the doors to encourage objects or people to clear the entrance.
- Voice Annunciation: Provides automated announcements for floor arrivals and direction of travel, aiding passengers with visual impairments and improving the overall experience.

Factors To Consider When Choosing Elevator
Comprehensive assessment, wise choice
Technical Factors
- Door Opening Speed: Tuning the door speed to balance rapid passenger transfer with safety considerations for fast-paced, high-traffic environments.
- Interoperability: Integrating the lift controls with building management systems (BMS) for centralized monitoring, fault reporting, and energy management.
- Harmonics Mitigation: Installing active filters or specialized components to manage electrical harmonic distortion generated by VVVF drives.
Usage Factors
- Accessibility Features: Ensuring controls, car size, and travel time fully comply with local disability and accessibility codes (e.g., braille, low-mounted buttons).
- Proprietary Controls: Evaluating if the control system is proprietary, which can influence long-term maintenance costs and technician selection.
- Vandal Resistance: Specifying durable, scratch-resistant materials and protected fixtures for installations in high-use public areas.
Frequently Asked Questions
Questions you may be interested in
Collective control means the elevator remembers and services calls (both car and landing) in the most efficient sequence, typically in the direction of travel, rather than stopping at every floor regardless of destination.
Modern automatic doors use a light curtain or safety edge, which is an array of infrared beams spanning the door opening. Breaking any of these beams instantly reverses the door's closing motion.
Yes, extensive customization is possible, including the selection of wall panel materials (laminate, stainless steel, glass), flooring, lighting, and specialized control panels to match the building's interior design.
