Flint-based PR Lift Equipment shares elevator controller maintenance tips
As our buildings soar to new heights, most of us would rather take an elevator than climb a dozen flights of stairs. Elevators have dramatically changed transportation in buildings, be they residential, commercial or industrial.
Given the importance of the elevator in our daily lives, it is important to ensure that the elevator in your building is always well maintained. A poorly maintained elevator can damage your brand image, turn away potential customers and damage your reputation.
PR Lift Equip, a leading UK supplier of lift controls, accessories and hydraulics, aims to help consumers get the most out of their lift systems. The team has over 50 years of experience in supplying and servicing hoists. The company's CEO, Andrew Phillipson, has shared helpful tips on how to get the most out of your elevator.
Don't leave your controller out in the open
If you have a controller that is not enclosed and leaves conductive parts exposed, it poses a safety hazard that requires immediate attention. Make sure it is at least locked in a protective cabinet.
"A better alternative is to invest in a modern controller like the Arkel Arcube, which is a compact, one-piece unit that contains all the systems in a well-packaged, closed box," says Phillipson.
Activate group control
It's a good idea to ensure that the elevators in your building are under group control. This is the most efficient way to use your elevators. This not only minimizes delays, but also keeps your energy bill under control.
"If the elevators are not grouped in the lobby, there can be chaos and delays. Suppose someone pushes all the elevator buttons. This will eventually delay other calls and even increase your electric bill. This can easily be avoided with a microprocessor-based elevator controller such as the Arkel Arcube elevator controller," said Mr Phillipson.
