1. Basic functions of Lift Key Switch
Lift Key Switch is usually used to control the operation of the elevator base station lock (Base Station Lock). The main function of the base station lock is to manage the parking position of the elevator and the opening and closing of the elevator door. When the elevator does not receive an operation command, the base station lock ensures that the elevator stays at the designated floor and the elevator door remains safely closed. The Lift Key Switch controls the base station lock by key or electronic means to ensure that the elevator does not move accidentally during operation.
2. Ensure safe parking of the elevator
The parking position of the elevator is crucial to the safety of the system. The Lift Key Switch can ensure that the elevator stops at the correct floor when there is no instruction to avoid safety hazards such as stopping at the wrong floor, misoperation or collision. Specifically, the Lift Key Switch controls the base station lock of the elevator. Only when the elevator is fully parked and locked at the designated floor, other control operations of the elevator will take effect.
3. Control the opening and closing of the elevator door
The control of the elevator door is one of the key links to ensure passenger safety. The Lift Key Switch works with the elevator door lock and the electrical lock system to accurately control the opening and closing of the elevator door. When the elevator stops at the designated floor, the Lift Key Switch can unlock or lock the elevator door through a key or electronic signal to ensure that the elevator door will not be opened in an unsafe situation.
4. Integration with the elevator control system
The integration of the Lift Key Switch with the elevator control system enables it to perform parking and door control tasks more efficiently. By connecting with the elevator's main control system, the Lift Key Switch can send a signal in time when the elevator reaches the target floor to control the elevator's parking and door opening and closing. The process is automated, reducing errors and delays in human operation and improving the elevator's operating efficiency.
5. Ensure the safety and stability of the elevator system
The design and function of the Lift Key Switch ensure the safety and stability of the elevator system. First, the Lift Key Switch avoids the elevator's wrong parking or disorderly operation by controlling the operation of the elevator base station lock, thereby effectively reducing accidents caused by the elevator's out-of-control. Secondly, by controlling the opening and closing of the elevator door, the Lift Key Switch can ensure that the elevator door will not open when the elevator is not completely stopped, avoiding accidents caused by passengers accidentally opening the elevator door. In the complex control system of the elevator, the Lift Key Switch plays the role of a "gatekeeper" to ensure the normal operation of the elevator in key links such as parking and door control.
6. Specifications and selection of Lift Key Switch
Depending on the design and use environment of the elevator system, the specifications of the Lift Key Switch will also vary. Common specifications include 12mm, 16mm, 19mm, etc. These specifications are suitable for different types of elevator base station locks, such as power locks and turning tongue locks. The specific specification of the Lift Key Switch to be selected usually depends on the type of elevator door lock and its usage requirements. In order to ensure perfect integration with the elevator system, the elevator installer needs to select the appropriate Lift Key Switch specifications and types according to the design requirements of the elevator.
