Energy Efficiency Rehabilitation contributes to reduce building energy

consumption
Proprietary information, Otis Elevator Company (H.K.) Ltd 6

Elevator Energy Consumption

Elevator energy consumption is:

Transportation
Energy needed to move the car and counterweight Used by drive and machine

Controller power supply

Permanent controller consumption

Car lighting
Only if the elevators is moving

Door operation
Energy needed to open/close doors Used by door operator with VF motors

Controllers are in stand-by Only if passengers use the mode if elevators are not car used (14h/day) Otherwise use of standby Hall Buttons mode

Benefits
Respecting our environment
Environmentally friendly machine: Sealed bearings lubricated for life Flat belts with no need for lubrication Gearless with low inertia: high efficiency Economical control system: Lower electricity consumption Lower installation power Standby operation
16

Filtered against electromagnetic interference

Flat belts: 2 to 3 times longer life compared to conventional ropes Quiet operation: Low noise and vibration as belt contact is polyurethane to metal Gearless machine: Much longer installation life compared to conventional systems Pulse SystemTM: Monitors belt condition 24 hours a day, 7 days a week

ReGen drives
Counterweight helps the machine to move elevators car

50% loaded elevator car

Elevator counterweight

ReGen drives

<
Up situations
Less than 50% loaded car going up Counterweight is heavier

>
Down situations
More than 50% loaded car down up Counterweight is lighter

Elevators machine is helped, there is an energy excess

Non Regenerative VF drives

Resistances allow to dissipate electrical energy excess Elevators machine

Resistances

Controller with VF

Proprietary information, Otis Elevator Company (H.K.) Ltd 21

ReGen drives

Energy excess is re-directed to the controller

Energy excess is dissipated in form of heat

Standard VF cause energy losses and low efficiency

Proprietary information, Otis Elevator Company (H.K.) Ltd 22

ReGen drives
It works like a double VF

Input power supply current is modulated to feed the machine

Regenerated energy can be used in the building

Machine output power excess goes back to ReGen Drive

Electrical energy excess is remodulated to become identical as imput current
