Elevator Operation Requirements

• General:

• Cars automatically slow down and stop level at floors in response to car and landing calls, with stops made in sequence in the established direction of travel, regardless of order in which buttons are pressed.

• Landing calls are canceled when the assigned car arrives at the landing.

• Automatic Dispatch Failure: Provide auxiliary dispatch system to automatically dispatch elevators in the event of failure of the primary control system.

• Hall Call Button Failure: Should failure of hall call button system occur, initiate operation providing predetermined service to all landings; elevators respond normally to car calls.

• Automatic Leveling:

• When arriving at a floor cars level to within 1/8” above or below the landing sill prior to opening doors, without travelling past the landing during leveling

• Maintain leveling accuracy regardless of carload, direction of travel, rope slippage, or stretch.

Door Operation:

Passenger Elevators:

• Automatically open doors when car arrives at a floor.

• Stop and reopen doors or hold doors in open position upon activation of “door open” button.

• At expiration of normal dwell time, or upon activation of “door close” button, close doors:

• Prevent doors from closing and reverse doors at normal opening speed if door reopening device beams are obstructed while doors are closing, except during nudging operation.

• In event of door reopening device failure, provide for automatic shutdown of car at floor level with doors open

• Close cycle does not begin upon activation of “door close” button until normal door dwell time for a car or hall call has expired, except firefighters’ operation.

• Nudging Operation:

• After beams of door reopening device are obstructed for a predetermined time interval (minimum 20.0-25.0 seconds), sound warning signal, and attempt to close doors with maximum of 2.5 foot-pounds kinetic energy.

• Activation of the door open button overrides nudging operation and reopens doors.

• Interrupted Beam Time:

SP - Page 16 of 28

• When beams are interrupted after the initial 3.0 second hold open time, reduce time doors remain open to an adjustable time of approximately 1.0 1.5 seconds after beams are reestablished.

• Place hall call by selecting direction of travel at each hall landing (up and down buttons at each intermediate landing, single buttons at each terminal landing).

• Place car call by selecting destination floor from inside the car (individual buttons for each floor served).

• Hall calls, other than calls placed at the landing at which car is standing, start car, and cause the car to stop at first landing for which a call is registered in the direction of travel.

• Stops are made in order in which landings are reached, irrespective of sequence in which calls are registered.

• Parked Car (No Demand):

• When feature is enabled, elevator remains at landing of last assignment (if no further demand) with doors closed, for a predetermined amount of time (programmable for any amount of time). Upon expiration of time, the elevator returns to the main egress landing with the doors closed.

• If feature is disabled, if no further demand, the elevator remains at landing of last assignment with the doors closed until a hall call is registered.

• Car and Hall Lanterns:

• Lanterns provide audio and visual signal upon each stop, regardless of responding to car or hall call.

• Visual signal remains active from commencement of door opening until doors are completely closed.

• Standby or Emergency Power Operation, Cars #1 and #2:

• The terms Standby Power and Emergency Power are both referred to as

Emergency Power in this Section. Elevator operation is the same when either is provided.

• Where emergency power is not provided, all elevator controller software and sequencing capabilities to allow future emergency power operation shall be included in the elevator control systems based on the applicable code requirements for new buildings in effect at the time of project permit application.

• Operation is activated by a signal from an Automatic Transfer Switch (ATS) to elevator controls indicating the Emergency power source is operational.

• Start and run all elevators simultaneously and any single car simultaneously at contract car speed and capacity.

• Illuminate “ELEVATOR EMERGENCY POWER” signals.

• Restoration of Normal Power:

• At least 20 seconds prior to transfer from emergency power to normal power at the ATS, a pre-transfer signal is supplied to the elevator control system from the ATS.

• Elevators operating on emergency power stop at the next available landing and remain there until normal power is restored.

Battery Backup Operation for Emergency Lighting, Communication, and Alarm:

• Car mounted battery unit with solid-state charger to operate alarm bell, car emergency lighting, and voice communication system.

• Car lighting and communication shall be provided with a minimum of 4 hours of operation on back-up power during a loss of normal power, and a minimum of 1 hour of operation for car-mounted alarm, and any remote alarm mounted at the designated floor level.

SP - Page 18 of 28

• Means to identify building and car for Authorized Personnel and Emergency

Personnel on demand.

• Activated by button in car identified with “PHONE” symbol or by external telephone call.

• Adjacent light jewel illuminates and flashes when call is acknowledged.

Authorized Personnel Communication:

• Communication system allows authorized personnel, via phone or intercom system, inside the building or at an outside location, to establish verbal communications with each elevator individually.

Communication for Deaf, Hard of Hearing and Speech Impaired:

• Means for non-verbal communication between passengers inside the elevator car and Authorized Personnel and Emergency Personnel inside or outside of the building.

• System allows for in car video display of custom or preselected text messages generated by Authorized Personnel or Emergency Personnel.

• Passengers inside the elevator car respond to text messages via “Yes” and “No” buttons that generate a visible indication at the location monitored by the Authorized/Emergency Personnel.
