ELEVATOR SYSTEM

Rope elevators are standard

elevators efficiently moved up
and down by an electric
traction machine that uses a
wire rope balancing the car
against counterweights. The
most widely-distributed type
are the rope elevators with a
traction machine and a
controller housed in the
machine room on the rooftop
belt manlift or manlift is a
device for moving passengers
between floors of a building. It is
a simple belt with steps or
platforms and handholds rather
than an elevator with cars. Its
design is similar to that of a
paternoster lift.

The authorized people should communicate with the person or people who are
trapped inside the lift car. Find out how many people are inside and instruct them to
remain calm and stay away from the car door.2. Turn off the electric supply at the
main switchboard in the machine room to the elevator where people are trapped
inside. In this case, lift No. 2 is the lift that has broken down. Turn off the
isolator/switchboard for lift No. 2 only.Talk to the passengers.Turn off lift . Unlock
doors.
3. Proceed with the rescue operation by opening the landing door with the landing
door key at the floor where the elevator has stopped.
4. If the elevator car is located at a level of more than ± 600mm to the nearest
landing floor, do not release the passengers. If the elevator car is not level to safely
bring the passengers out then sometimes it is advised to open the door
approximately only about 200mm to allow fresh air or light into lift car to make the
passengers feel more comfortable while waiting for the lift technicians to arrive.
Release brake.Rescue works should be carried out by lift technicians as there is the
danger that such rescue works may result in the risk of a fatal accident of the
trapped passengers falling back into the lift shaft.The lift technicians are trained to
manually bring the lift to the nearest landing floor level by slowly releasing the

is useful for preventing passengers
from becoming trapped inside an
elevator during a power failure.
