E-Series^™ Smooth-Move^® For 3-Phase A.C. Elevators and Lifts

Product Description

E-Series^™ 1 & 2 Speed A.C. Elevator reduced torque control.

A.C. Elevators and Lifts need this control! The PE^® E-Series^™ will help you eliminate resistor ballasts/outdated resistor starting! Upgrade your 1 or 2-speed elevators with a smoother/softer ride, with increased safety and reliability, and with reduced inrush current. The PE^® E-Series^™ will easily retrofit and upgrade your existing elevator system.

1-Speed motors will start, reverse, and & re-level softly and smoothly.

2-Speed motors will have smooth/soft starting, reversing, and smooth high to low transition. Without timers!

ARC-ELIMINATION™ is an exclusive feature of the high-reliability Power Electronics^® soft-start controls. This feature eliminates the destructive arcing on the make & break of power contactors. With the E-Series^™ Smooth-Move^® installed, old carbon to copper contactor life will be increased, with minimized adjustment and maintenance. Metallic contact life and reliability will also be dramatically increased. Only available from Power Electronics!

The E-Series^™ Smooth-Move^® will help increase the life, reliability, and productivity of new or existing motorized equipment in all of the following Applications:

1-speed passenger or freight elevators/lifts

2-speed passenger or freight elevators/lifts

Hydraulic elevator motors

Starting of Motor/Generator sets

Upgrading of old elevator installations

Improvement of existing elevator designs

Useful on dumbwaiters and man-lifts, etc.
