Product Overview

Intelligent customization redefines vertical transportation

Tenau Elevator

The term "Patient Lift Elevator" is often used synonymously with "Patient Elevator" or "Hospital Elevator." It specifically highlights the function of lifting and transferring patients who are not ambulatory. The design is centered around minimizing the strain and risk involved in moving a patient, especially one who is critically ill or in post-operative recovery. This includes ensuring the car stops level with the floor (±3 mm tolerance) to prevent wheels from snagging when pushing a bed onto the platform.

The systems utilize closed-loop digital control of the gearless motor, providing precise speed and position control, which is the technical key to the required smooth ride. Unlike standard lifts, which might use a magnetic brake for final stopping, patient lifts use the motor's control to ramp down smoothly before the brake engages. This technical feature ensures the critical smooth stop. The car interiors also typically feature higher light levels than public lifts to assist staff with reading charts and administering care.

Product Advantages

Why choose Tenau elevators?

Reduces Staff Injury Risk

Smooth leveling and large, easily opened doors reduce the physical effort and strain required by staff to maneuver heavy beds and equipment.

Protects Sensitive Equipment

The gentle motion protects sensitive patient monitors, IV pumps, and ventilators being used during transport from sudden movements.

Product Features

Innovative technology, superior experience

  • Integrated Load Cell: A sensor measures the total car weight, which is used by the control system to dynamically adjust the motor torque, further enhancing ride smoothness regardless of the load.
  • Car Call Memory: The system retains calls even if the HES key is activated, ensuring the car returns to its intended route once the emergency service is completed.
  • Regenerative Drive: Utilizes a drive system that captures energy generated during deceleration, feeding it back into the hospital's power grid, reducing energy consumption.

Application Scenarios

Suitable for a variety of residential environments

ICU Transfer Protocol

Provides reliable, rapid transport for Intensive Care Unit (ICU) patients, often accompanied by extensive life support apparatus.

Moving Patients to Diagnostic Imaging

Transports patients on beds or specialty gurneys to MRI, CT, and X-ray departments, which often require strict control over movement and timing.

Factors To Consider When Choosing Elevator

Comprehensive assessment, wise choice

Technical Factors

  • Door Opening Sequence: Programming the doors to open in a carefully timed sequence upon arrival to provide immediate, wide access for staff maneuvering beds.
  • Pit Sump Pump: Ensuring the pit is equipped with a functional sump pump and alarm, as any flooding can disable the critical lift and cause major operational issues.
  • Backup Power Switchover: Testing the seamless, instantaneous transfer of the lift's power source from grid to generator during simulated power outages.

Usage Factors

  • Emergency Call System: Integrating a reliable two-way communication system in the car that connects directly to a central hospital command center, not a general call service.
  • Component Lifespan: Selecting high-wear components (ropes, sheaves, door operators) rated for a demanding 24/7 duty cycle to maximize time between failures.
  • Security Lockouts: Utilizing time-of-day or day-of-week programming to optimize traffic flow and temporarily limit access to certain floors (e.g., administrative).

Frequently Asked Questions

Questions you may be interested in

Can the lift handle all types of beds?

It is designed to handle all standard hospital beds, including specialized bariatric beds and traction beds, provided the car size and load rating were correctly specified during the building's design.

How is hygiene maintained on the buttons?

Buttons are often large to allow for elbow or knuckle operation, or they utilize touchless activation technology (capacitive or infrared sensing) to avoid direct contact.

What is meant by 'low jerk rate'?

Jerk is the rate of change of acceleration. A low jerk rate means the elevator starts and stops extremely gently, preventing the sudden lurching motion that is uncomfortable and potentially harmful to a fragile patient.
