Product Overview
Intelligent customization redefines vertical transportation
A Medical Elevator, often referred to as a hospital or clinical elevator, is engineered to meet the stringent demands of healthcare facilities. Unlike standard passenger elevators, these units require specific dimensions to accommodate hospital beds (including traction beds), gurneys, and accompanying medical staff/equipment. The primary focus is on functionality that supports patient care: extremely smooth acceleration and deceleration to prevent patient discomfort or injury (especially post-surgery), high reliability for critical service (e.g., transporting organs, emergency surgery teams), and compliance with strict hygiene standards.
The drive system is typically MRL (Machine Room Less) gearless traction for precision and space efficiency, often featuring closed-loop vector control to ensure precise leveling with the floor, preventing trip hazards for rolling equipment. Interior finishes must be non-porous, highly durable, and resistant to hospital-grade cleaning agents. Door openings are wider and taller than standard elevators to allow quick, unhindered movement of large medical beds.
Basic Product Parameters
Diverse options to meet the needs of different families
| Car Dimensions | Minimum 1.6m wide × 2.4m deep (Stretcher Size) |
| Rated Load | 1600 kg – 2500 kg (3500 – 5500 lbs) |
| Speed | Up to 3.5 m/s (In tall hospital towers) |
| Door Type | Wider, Side-Opening (Minimum 1.1m or 1.2m clear opening) |
| Leveling Accuracy | ±3 mm (Required for Gurneys/Beds) |
| Interior Finish | Stainless Steel, Laminate with Anti-Microbial Coatings |
Product Advantages
Why choose Tenau elevators?
Enhances Patient Safety and Comfort
Ultra-smooth ride and accurate leveling minimize jolts, which is crucial for patients in fragile or critical conditions, reducing the risk of complications.
Optimizes Clinical Throughput
High-speed, high-capacity, and wide doors reduce the time required to move patients between surgical theaters, ICU, and recovery, improving overall facility efficiency.
Product Features
Innovative technology, superior experience
- Full Height Door Protection: Doors are equipped with a non-contact, full-height light curtain sensor array to prevent doors from closing on personnel or equipment moving slowly.
- Bumper Rails: Integrated, heavy-duty stainless steel bumper rails protect the car interior walls from damage caused by rolling beds and gurneys.
- Hospital Emergency Service (HES): A key-activated feature that allows medical staff to take control of the elevator, bypassing normal calls for urgent transport.
Product Comparison
| Characteristic | Medical Elevator | Standard Commercial Passenger Elevator |
| Load Capacity | High (1600 kg minimum) | Medium (Typically 1000 kg max) |
| Car Size | Deep and Wide (Accommodates beds) | Square or Rectangular (Focus on standing passengers) |
| Ride Quality | Extremely Smooth Acceleration/Deceleration | Standard comfort level (Smoother than freight) |
| Speed | Often High Speed (Crucial for time-sensitive services) | Moderate to High |
| Hygiene | Anti-Microbial Surfaces, Easy-to-Clean Materials | Standard Laminates/Finishes |

Factors To Consider When Choosing Elevator
Comprehensive assessment, wise choice
Technical Factors
- Buffer Zone Depth: Ensuring the pit and overhead clearances meet the required standards for the rated load and speed, especially for high-rise hospital towers.
- Power Reliability: Integration with the hospital's emergency generator system to ensure uninterrupted power supply for critical elevator banks.
- Destination Control System: Implementing a system that groups passenger calls and optimizes elevator movement to reduce waiting times in high-traffic areas.
Usage Factors
- Bed Accessibility: Mocking up the largest hospital bed/stretcher intended for use to confirm it can be easily rotated and maneuvered within the car and through the doorway.
- Maintenance Response Time: Securing a service contract that guarantees extremely fast response times (e.g., 30 minutes) for any critical elevator outage.
- Noise Reduction: Specifying acoustic dampening for the machine components and car walls to maintain a quiet environment crucial for patient rest.
Frequently Asked Questions
Questions you may be interested in
HES (or Fireman's Service Phase II, applied to medical) allows authorized medical personnel with a key to commandeer the elevator, overriding all other calls to ensure immediate transport of critical resources or patients.
A smooth ride minimizes the acceleration forces (jerk) that could impact sensitive medical equipment, disturb surgical patients, or complicate procedures being performed during transport.
While not typically pressurized, some specialty cars (e.g., isolation units) may feature dedicated HEPA filtration and negative pressure capabilities to prevent the spread of airborne pathogens.
