Lifts / Passenger Lifts

Machine-room-less traction, engineered for your shaft.

A machine-room-less traction passenger lift range for residential and commercial buildings. Without a machine room, more of the building is usable space, and the lift can be planned into a standard shaft with side or rear counterweight.

Space-efficient

Machine-room-less design with side or rear counterweight options to fit the shaft you have.

Accurate, smooth travel

Direct parking and precise levelling, automatic floor position correction and self-learning hoistway data.

Protected at every stage

Thirteen standard safety functions, from overload and overspeed protection to full-height photocell door sensors and fire recall.

Efficient in operation

Car light and ventilation shut off automatically when idle; traffic modes adjust by time of day.

Built to be maintained

Fault history recording, inspection operation and brake test protection support faster, safer servicing.

Standard Features

Thirty-four functions, built in

Combinations, component availability and feature applicability are confirmed for the selected configuration during design review. Expand each group to see the standard function list.

Planning

Plan the lift in early

Shaft size, pit depth and overhead affect the structure, and they are expensive to change once documentation is complete. Use the Size Guide for preliminary dimensions, or send your drawings for a design review.
