What the terms mean

Counterweight (CWT)
A weight that balances the car in the shaft. It sits either beside the car (side counterweight) or behind it (rear counterweight), which changes the shaft width and depth needed.
Overhead
The clear height from the top landing floor to the underside of the shaft ceiling. It gives room for the car at its highest position and for the machine.
Pit depth
The distance from the bottom landing floor down to the shaft floor. It houses buffers and safety clearances.
Max. travel
The greatest height the car can travel from the lowest to the highest landing.
Rated load
The maximum load the car is designed to carry, in kilograms.
Max. stops
The most landings the configuration can serve.

How to read the dimensions

  • All dimensions are in millimetres (mm), except travel in metres (m) and speed in metres per second (m/s).
  • Shaft width and depth are the inside shaft size, measured between finished internal surfaces and free of obstruction.
  • Car dimensions are inside the car. Door dimensions are the clear door opening.
  • Overhead and pit depth change with speed, so choose the row that matches the speed you need.
  • Capacities not listed here may be possible. They are assessed through design review, not offered as standard options.

Indicative planning information only. Dimensions and suitability must be confirmed through project-specific design review and approved shop drawings before construction.
