Product Overview
Intelligent customization redefines vertical transportation
An electric passenger lift typically utilizes a traction system, employing ropes, a motor, and a counterweight to move the elevator car vertically. The electric motor, often a gearless Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor (PMSM), drives a sheave to pull the ropes, allowing for precise speed and position control. This design is prevalent in mid-to-high-rise structures due to its capability for higher speeds and travel heights compared to hydraulic alternatives.
The operation is characterized by its smooth acceleration and deceleration, critical for passenger comfort. Modern systems often incorporate Variable Voltage Variable Frequency (VVVF) drive technology to regulate the motor's speed, contributing significantly to energy efficiency by reducing power consumption during operation. Electric lifts can also be designed with machine rooms or as Machine Room Less (MRL) units, offering flexibility in building design. They require regular maintenance focused on rope condition, motor function, and control system integrity to ensure long-term reliable service.

Product Features
Innovative technology, superior experience
- Machine Room Less (MRL) Design: Integrates all main components within the shaft, maximizing usable building space and simplifying construction.
- Destination Control System (DCS): Groups passengers traveling to the same floor, improving traffic flow and reducing waiting times.
- Emergency Battery Operation: Ensures the car can be brought to the nearest floor and doors opened during a main power failure.
Product Comparison
| Characteristic | Electric Passenger Lift (Traction) | Hydraulic Passenger Lift |
| Maximum Speed | High (1.0 m/s - 10 m/s) | Low to Medium (Up to 1.0 m/s) |
| Max Travel | High (Suitable for all heights) | Low (Typically 2-6 floors) |
| Energy Use | Lower per-trip consumption for high rise | Higher per-trip consumption (only descending is efficient) |
| Ride Quality | Generally Smoother and Quieter at High Speed | Smooth, but may have a lower top speed |
| Equipment Location | Top of Shaft or within shaft (MRL) | Machine Room at lowest level |

Factors To Consider When Choosing Elevator
Comprehensive assessment, wise choice
Technical Factors
- Shaft Dimensions and Pit/Overhead: Ensuring the building structure can accommodate the required depth of the pit and the overhead clearance for the system type (MRL vs. traditional).
- Traffic Analysis: Accurately calculating the number of lifts and their speeds needed to maintain an acceptable waiting time during peak periods.
- Power Supply and Load: Verifying the electrical infrastructure can handle the instantaneous power demand of the motor and control systems.
Usage Factors
- Aesthetic Requirements: Choosing interior finishes, lighting, and signaling that align with the building's architectural design and user experience goals.
- Maintenance Access and Cost: Evaluating the complexity and associated long-term service costs, particularly for proprietary MRL systems.
- Security Integration: Planning for access control systems (e.g., key card readers) to restrict floor access for enhanced building security.
Frequently Asked Questions
Questions you may be interested in
Gearless machines (often PMSM) are connected directly to the sheave, offering higher efficiency, quieter operation, and less maintenance due to fewer moving parts. Geared machines use a gearbox, suitable for slower speeds and lower capacities, but require periodic oil changes.
Modern electric lifts are equipped with an Automatic Rescue Device (ARD) or similar system, typically using battery power to slowly move the car to the nearest floor, open the doors, and safely evacuate passengers.
In most cases, especially with gearless MRL systems, electric lifts are significantly quieter inside the building as the main operational noise source (the motor) is either in the shaft or at the top, and often uses sophisticated vibration isolation.
