EnergySaving Miracle

VOLKSPassenger Elevator

• Permanent magnet synchronous hoisting machine
• Consumes 70% less energy than a hydraulic drive and 50% lessthan a traction 2-speed drive
• Due to variable frequency drives used in our solutions, thepeak starting current is 30–40% that of equivalent hydraulic andtraction units, reducing energy consumption and size of fuses
• Thin and lightweight, requires less raw material and spacecompared to traditional hoisting machines
• Energy saving: 4000 kWh/year compared to hydraulic elevator2000 kWh/year compared to traction 2-speed elevator
• Carbon footprint reduction: (based on OECD electrical energymix)** 4938 lb (2240 kg) CO2/year compared to hydraulic elevator2469 lb (1120 kg) CO2/year compared to traction 2-speedelevator
• convert the power into current
•  Can recover up to 25% of the total energy used by anelevator
• Produces clean and safe energy that does not damage thenetwork
• Energy savings: 13,250 kWh/year compared to a non-regenerativedrive
• Plastics used in cables for electrification do not containhalogens
• In case of fire they do not produce toxic gas and do notrelease corrosive acids
