The elevator machine room is the control center of your elevator. This specialized area contains mechanical and electrical components to ensure smooth and safe operation. Access is restricted to authorized personnel due to the presence of sensitive equipment. Any malfunction in operations may cause severe damage to the elevator and endanger passengers.

The room contains a control unit, motor, disconnect switches, and other auxiliary components. The elevator control unit is the most important component of the machine room, as it controls the operation of the elevator motor. The control unit monitors passenger calls and sends the elevator to the requested floor.

The motor is the elevator’s operating unit that raises and lowers the elevator car. The elevator machine room also contains two disconnect switches. One controls the unit’s power, and the other controls emergency lighting. The elevator machine room also contains emergency brakes and limit switches. These essential components ensure passenger safety and prevent accidents.
