Lifts
In anticipation of both the current and increasingly stringent future regulations, in cooperation with LLS a number of products designed first for safety and call detection. A good example is the development of the anti-pinch hazard of the doors of panorama lifts.
Safety system for lifts
For quite some time, in the elevator industry developments are under way for new applications in safety. Insiders have disclose electronic components are increasingly part of those systems.
Lightspeed Systems is a company which has been engaged for 5 years with the development and sale of its own unique optical detection system. The optical detection system is patented worldwide and has already many applications. The amendments of the existing regulations as well as the revision of the existing standards 81-1/2, the recent harmonised EN81-21 and the Pessral (Programmable Electronic System in Safety Related Applications for Lifts) call for increasing safety and exclusions of human error in elevators.
An important feature is that the sensor allows installation in virtually any possible part of a building, think of walls, floors, roofs and that the sensor does not care about the drawbacks that arise in the other known systems of today. Due to the ability of the system to continuously monitor itself and to set other physical conditions, the functionality is simply outstanding.
The basis of the system is the light guide which according distortion affects the light signal. With electronics the change in the light spectrum is processed as a traditional signal, think of electrical contacts.
That the system has been certified by a reputable institution such as KEMA, for example, the Machinery Directive EN954-1 class IV, ISO 13849-1 gives the user the assurance of a truly secure and most importantly reliable, system. With this combination of safety and reliable functionality Lightspeed Systems brings a unique patented universal system to the market.
Without pretending to have the full potential at a glance:
- Anti Trapping elevator doors (AT1)
- Call system vandal resistant (CS2)
- Hospital bed detection (HB1)
