AE-CARMRL
A Machine Room-Less (MRL) car elevator is a type of elevator that does not require a separate machine room for housing the elevator’s motor and drive system. Instead, the components are integrated into the hoistway or directly above the elevator shaft. MRL car elevators are designed to save space, reduce installation costs, and offer more efficient operation compared to traditional traction elevators.
Key Specifications and Features of MRL Car Elevators:
1. Load Capacity : Typical Load: MRL car elevators are designed to carry vehicles and typically offer a load capacity of 2,000 kg to 5,000 kg (2-5 tons), suitable for cars, SUVs, and vans. Some heavy-duty versions can handle up to 10 tons or more, depending on the requirements.
Drive Mechanism : Traction System: MRL car elevators use a traction drive system instead of traditional hydraulic systems. This means they use geared or gearless motors with ropes or belts to lift the platform. The machine (typically a gearless motor) is located at the top of the shaft or within the hoistway, eliminating the need for a dedicated machine room.
Counterweights : These elevators often use counterweights to balance the load, making them more energy-efficient compared to hydraulic systems.
Safety Features :
Overload Sensors : These sensors detect if the weight limit is exceeded and prevent the elevator from moving if the load is too heavy.
Emergency Brakes : Emergency brakes are installed to prevent the platform from descending too quickly in case of a malfunction.
Automatic Rescue Devices : In case of power failure, these elevators can automatically lower the vehicle to the nearest floor or stop at a safe position.
Door Locking Mechanisms : The doors are designed to remain locked while the elevator is in motion, preventing accidental openings.
