Appropriate Elevator Electricity Consumption - How to Save Electricity When Using the Elevator

  • 15/01/2024
  • When looking for a home elevator solution , one of the most important and worthy factors to consider is the elevator's electricity consumption capacity . This is not only related to the ability to handle loads, but is also a decisive factor in energy efficiency and operating costs. Home elevator capacity , often measured in kW units, is a criterion that requires special attention to ensure that the equipment meets the family's usage needs and sustainability standards.

    WHAT IS THE POWER CONSUMPTION OF A FAMILY ELEVATOR?

    The electricity consumption capacity of a home elevator is the amount of electricity the elevator consumes during operation. This elevator power is measured in Kilowatts (kW) and is often one of the important parameters when evaluating the energy efficiency of the equipment.

    The power consumption of an elevator is affected by many factors, including payload volume , travel distance , operating speed and technical structure of the elevator . Understanding this power consumption helps users make smart decisions when choosing equipment that suits their specific needs and desired level of energy savings.

    Information about power consumption is often provided in the elevator's technical specifications and consumers can refer to it to choose the device with the best energy efficiency for their home or business.

    HOW TO CALCULATE THE POWER CONSUMPTION OF A FAMILY ELEVATOR

    Based on the definition of elevator capacity above. We can calculate the elevator's electricity consumption according to the following formula:

    P (elevator capacity) = Energy used / Unit of time

    For home elevators, elevator power consumption is calculated based on each type of elevator and elevator load. Specifically:

    Electricity consumption capacity of home elevators with machine room

    With a home elevator with a machine room , the elevator's power consumption will correspond to each different load:

    7.5 kW

    4

    Family elevator 900kg or more

    11 kW

    Power consumption of home elevators without machine room

    Similar to family elevators with machine rooms , elevator products without machine rooms consume capacity also depending on each elevator load level.

    No

    Family elevator 300kg - 350kg

    2.2 kW

    Family elevator 500kg - 800kg

    4.5 kW

    4

    Family elevator 900kg or more

    5.5 - 6.7 kW

    With the power consumption as mentioned above, it is easy to see that, with the same lifting weight, an elevator without a machine room will have a lower capacity than an elevator with a machine room.

    Therefore, elevators without machine rooms are often preferred because they bring the benefit of saving electricity costs to customers. During long-term use, the electricity cost that this elevator line without machine room can optimize is a significant number.

    HOW MUCH ELECTRIC POWER CONSUMPTION IS SUITABLE FOR AN ELEVATOR?

    To find the right elevator product, many related factors need to be considered. In particular, the following points should be considered:

    Customers should use elevator products suitable for their family situation

    Home elevators without a machine room , even with the same lifting weight, usually have lower capacity than elevators with a machine room. Therefore, machine room-less elevators not only help customers solve the problem of energy saving but are also an effective choice.

    Elevators without machine rooms are also the perfect choice for home renovation projects or spaces with limited height. This makes elevators without machine rooms a top priority for many customers.

    Electricity consumption capacity for 4-person and 6-person family elevators

    Depending on the number of people in the family, customers will choose the appropriate elevator capacity. For a family of 4 people, a 2.2 kW elevator is the ideal choice, and notably, there are super space-saving family elevator products with a capacity of only 1.5 kW.

    If the family has 6 members, then a 3.2 kW elevator is optimal. Cibes A4000 family elevator series, with a load capacity of 400kg and consuming 220V power, provides an electricity-saving solution for your family.

    The power consumption for 6-floor and 3-floor elevators is different

    Elevator capacity depends not only on the weight lifted but also on the number of floors served. If the number of floors is higher, the elevator capacity also needs to be larger and vice versa. Therefore, choosing the appropriate load level is important, and customers should perform careful calculations and considerations.

    Regarding the number of floors and load level, the selection needs to be consistent and reflect travel needs as well as the number of family members. Avoiding overloading is important, as it can affect the elevator's durability if the capacity does not meet the requirements. On the contrary, choosing an elevator capacity that is too low compared to demand can lead to unnecessary waste of electricity.

    The power consumption of a home elevator depends on the number of times it is used

    The level of elevator usage, no matter how much or how little, affects the electricity costs your family has to pay monthly. If the home elevator operates frequently, this will result in you paying a higher electricity bill.

    HOW TO SAVE ELECTRICITY WHEN USING A HOME ELEVATOR

    A home elevator is a convenience that offers many benefits, but it can also consume a significant amount of electricity. However, there are some simple ways to save electricity when using a home elevator:

    Choose an elevator with appropriate capacity

    • Choose an elevator with a capacity and size that suits your family's needs.

    • Avoid choosing an elevator with too much capacity, because it will consume more electricity than necessary.

    Use the elevator properly

    • Use the elevator only when necessary, instead of walking a few floors.

    • Avoid using elevators to travel short distances.

    • If you travel with many people, use an elevator with an appropriate load capacity.

    Take advantage of natural light

    • If possible, install windows or skylights in the elevator shaft to take advantage of natural light.

    • Use energy-saving LED bulbs for the lighting system in the elevator.

    Turn off devices when not in use

    • Turn off ventilation fans and lights in elevators when not in use.

    • Use standby mode or turn off the elevator power when you are away from home for a long time.

    Maintain elevators periodically

    • Regularly maintain elevators to ensure efficient operation and energy saving.

    • Inspect and replace worn or damaged parts to minimize friction and energy loss.

    ADDRESS FOR SUPPLYING OPTIMAL CAPACITY ELEVATORS
