Efficient Elevators: Features and Performance

Ascensores eficientes: Características y rendimiento

Efficient elevators have become essential components in reducing energy consumption and optimizing resource management in modern buildings.

In a context where sustainability holds a central place on global agendas, these systems stand out as solutions that not only contribute to environmental preservation but also address the economic and operational needs of properties.

What Are Efficient Elevators?

Thanks to technological advancements, modern elevators have evolved to meet contemporary demands, incorporating innovation, durability, and efficiency. Their performance goes beyond energy savings; they excel in operating optimally and minimizing environmental impact, becoming indispensable assets for buildings.

Efficient elevators are systems designed to deliver high performance, ensure sustainability, and achieve energy savings. Their design focuses on optimizing electrical consumption and extending the lifespan of their components, ensuring a comfortable and safe user experience while positively impacting the environment. These systems enhance operational efficiency and comply with the most stringent sustainability standards.

Key Features of Efficient Elevators

Unlike traditional elevators, efficient models integrate advanced technologies that optimize every aspect of their operation. Their standout features include:

Regenerative Motors

Efficient elevators are equipped with regenerative motors that recover energy generated during the elevator’s downward movement. Instead of being wasted as heat, this energy is converted into usable electricity, which can power other building systems or reduce strain on the electrical grid. This promotes sustainability, lowers operating costs, and improves long-term profitability.

Advanced Traction Systems

Instead of traditional hydraulic systems, efficient elevators utilize state-of-the-art traction systems with pulleys and counterweights to enhance energy efficiency. This eliminates the need for hydraulic oils and fluids, thereby reducing the risk of leaks and lowering maintenance requirements.

LED Lighting

LED lighting in elevator cabins and signals provides a longer lifespan and consumes less energy than traditional bulbs. Over time, this reduces replacement needs and minimizes environmental impact.

Automatic Standby Modes

Efficient elevators include a standby mode that reduces energy consumption when the elevator is not in use. This system automatically dims lighting and electronic components, optimizing energy use during idle periods.

Sistema de control inteligente​

Intelligent Control Systems

Efficient elevators feature intelligent control systems that optimize routes and trips, efficiently distributing rides among multiple elevators within the same building. This ensures the most efficient operation possible, even in large buildings.

Load-Based Energy Adjustment

These elevators can adjust their energy consumption based on the weight of the load they carry, enhancing operational efficiency. The motor adapts its performance when the cabin is partially occupied or empty, maximizing energy efficiency.

Predictive Maintenance System

Leveraging IoT technology and advanced sensors, efficient elevators can detect potential issues before they occur. These systems continuously monitor elevator performance, collecting real-time data on component wear, abnormal vibrations, and changes in energy consumption. At Aszende, for instance, we use the ARM system for this purpose.

Impact of Efficient Elevators on Performance and User Experience

The implementation of efficient elevators directly impacts both vertical mobility system performance and user experience. More buildings are adopting these advanced platforms due to their benefits, which go beyond energy savings to include significant improvements in service and user satisfaction.

Cost Savings

Efficient elevators help reduce operational and maintenance costs. Their advanced design and technologies significantly lower expenses associated with energy consumption, component wear, and unexpected repairs. Additionally, the increased durability of motors and other key components minimizes the need for frequent replacements.

Durability and Longevity

In general, efficient elevators have a longer lifespan than traditional models. The combination of regenerative motors, predictive technology, and advanced traction systems helps reduce wear and tear, keeping components in good condition for extended periods.

Improved User Experience

Features like intelligent control systems, LED lighting, and automatic standby modes enhance energy efficiency while providing a more comfortable and secure user experience. These elevators operate more quietly, optimizing energy use when idle, resulting in a more peaceful and comfortable environment for occupants.
