Improve Elevator & Lift Applications
There’s a lot that goes in to powering elevator and lift systems. You need an effective and responsive electric motor to support the varied horsepower and constant torque necessary to transport people and materials safely between floors.There are many solutions that can support the motors powering traction and hydraulic elevators, which are the two most common types of lift systems. These solutions help identify or mitigate potential operational issues, and allow your elevator and lift system to work effectively in your commercial or industrial environment.Our product portfolio offers the solutions you need to get the most from your elevator and lift system, along with added benefits like inventory reduction, cost savings and increased reliability. |

Variable Frequency Drives
Drive an electric motor by varying the frequency and voltage supplied to the motor. Variable frequency drives, or VFDs, are best used in applications with high-torque starting applications and applications where continuous feedback of position is needed.

Molded Case Circuit Breakers
GuardEon* by GE is the new low voltage molded case circuit breaker platform designed to work in tough, real-world applications, and is a smart, reliable and secure circuit breaker solution. GuardEon circuit breakers have global ratings for both IEC and NEMA markets, which makes them an ideal solution for the global lift industry.

Contactors
Contactors, like GE’s Efficor*, make it possible to operate your lifting system in myriad commercial and industrial environments and conditions. Because control and electrical rooms are often located in or near the elevator shaft, space can be limited and components hard to reach. Contactors and other modular components allow for tool-free installation and in-the-field upgrades. They’re also designed to function in harsh and high-temperature environments.

Motor Starters
Manually switch motors on and off, and provide overcurrent (fuseless) protection against short circuit, overload and phase failures. Motor starters are also able to sense when the motor is drawing too much current, which occurs when the lifting mechanism is attempting to overcome the friction caused by a jam.
