RETROFIT DE ELEVADORES RESIDENCIAIS

Abstract

This work aims to evaluate the mechanical, electrical and electronic equipment that constitutes an elevator in its precarious state of preservation due to the final useful life and the high cost of corrective maintenance so that it can obtain greater results in the execution of the retrofit. In field analysis, it was found that those responsible for the wear of the main components of an elevator are the sudden stops causing unevenness of the cabin with the floor (floor): high consumption of electricity, being estimated as the second largest consumer of energy within a condominium , the high expenses with corrective maintenance due to the replacement of offline parts and user safety. After the retrofit in the elevator system, it brings benefits such as: smooth travel, precise leveling regardless of the load, forty percent energy savings, low noise level, less wear and tear on mechanical belongings, reduced maintenance costs and increased safety , the latter being the priority, requiring the maximum attention of the person responsible for the modernization of the equipment. Before carrying out the retrofit, the field engineering carried out a field survey of the energy consumption for true verification to the client, so that the client perceived the advantageous investment made and the return of the same in a certain time.
