Is it necessary to install a dedicated air conditioner in the sightseeing elevator?

     After June, various provinces have successively switched to barbecue mode. The temperature keeps rising day by day. In fact, just like people, the high temperature can also cause heatstroke in sightseeing elevators. The only difference is that the symptoms of heatstroke in people are dizziness and tinnitus, while the symptoms of heatstroke in sightseeing elevators are that they get stuck and malfunction.

      For traction elevators with main machine rooms, it is mentioned in 6.3.5 of GB7588-2003 "Safety Code for the Manufacture and Installation of Elevators" that "the main machine room should have appropriate natural ventilation." Under normal circumstances, the temperature of the elevator car in an office environment is preferably between 5 and 40 degrees. This regulation is more applicable to organic chemical rental elevators in public places. The most crucial reason is that for elevator cars with main machine rooms, the soft starters and braking resistors inside the server and control box of the elevator car are the key heat sources, and an excellent environment is required for heat dissipation. However, for villa elevators, the vast majority are constructed in a room without a main machine room. The control box and server of the elevator car are distributed in different Spaces. Therefore, in terms of actual effect, it should be better than concentrating all the heat sources in one place.

      Under the continuous high-temperature natural environment, it is very easy for the automatic control system program to malfunction during the operation of the elevator car, and the elevator car is very likely to report faults and trap people. In addition, faults caused by temperature are generally not easy to detect, which also brings many inconveniences to the elevator maintenance staff when repairing the elevator car. The electrical components inside the elevator car will also have their service life shortened due to excessively high working temperatures. So, how can we prevent sightseeing elevators from getting stuck?

     The design paln of special air conditioning for sightseeing elevators must be effective. For indoor elevators, as there is no direct sunlight in the hot summer and most rooms have central air conditioning to cool down, the situation of "overheating" in the elevator car is much lower than that of outdoor villa elevators. However, for the control box area of the elevator car, do not use dirt to block the heat pipe heat dissipation holes of the control box. For outdoor sightseeing elevators, the exhaust holes must be pre-buried at the construction site of the elevator car. Additionally, the elevator control cabinet should not be placed in a natural environment exposed to direct sunlight. In addition, to reduce elevator malfunctions caused by high temperatures, sightseeing elevators must be maintained and serviced on time. Dust accumulated in the heat pipe heat dissipation holes and indoor cooling fans should be removed immediately to allow the heat to dissipate promptly.

     The continuous improvement of the intelligent system level of the automatic control system for elevator cars has also been enhancing the utilization of elevator car energy. However, it cannot completely eliminate elevator faults. The trend of frequent faults caused by the gradual deterioration of elevator cars during application remains unchanged. However, based on an effective design plan for the elevator structure, the automatic control system of electrical equipment, and the mechanical structure, and by adopting purposeful countermeasures to reasonably control key links, it is possible to ensure that the temperature of the elevator car remains within the normal range during high-temperature weather, and ultimately eliminate or reduce various faults caused by high temperatures. Ensure that the elevator car operates in a safe, stable and reliable natural environment to better serve customers.
