The unit shall be equipped with “Green” features which will assist in offsetting electrical usage. The Green device, allows the energy generated by the downward movement of the elevator to be re-utilized which would otherwise be dissipated in the form of heat on the relative braking resistors. The fundamental principle that allows such regeneration utilizes the DC-BUS technology in common among the various inverters. The Green solution is a special inverter which, being placed between the machine’s main switch and electrical panel, functions both as an “energy stabilizer” when the motor of the vertical axis absorbs, and as a generator when the motor of the vertical axis generates, rerouting the electrical energy produced to the customer’s grid.
