GOODS AND HOME LIFTS
Controllers for short-rise installations with few stops: goods lifts in retail, light industry and hospitality, and home lifts in private housing. The scale of the equipment changes; the build and safety criteria do not.
These installations resemble each other more than their names suggest. Two, three or four stops, a short rise, intermittent use and, almost always, a technical space that either does not exist or is occupied by something else. The controller they need is a unit sized for that profile: few stops, a low-power drive and an enclosure that fits where there is room. Not a building panel with things taken out.
The usual drive is hydraulic or traction with a low-power inverter. On hydraulic, the panel governs pump start-up and emergency lowering, which in a private home is also the procedure someone with no technical training has to be able to carry out. On inverter-driven traction, the range starts at 4 kW (10 A), which is the rating most of these installations work at.
Format rules. Where the room will not take a full cabinet, the same control scope is delivered in a box, pre-wired and with its inspection station, so commissioning does not force anyone to redo wiring in a space that is by definition awkward. If the constraint on the project is the free dimensions, that is the first figure to put on the table.
Standards do not drop a level because the equipment is small. The panels comply with EN 81-20 and EN 81-50, Directive 2014/33/EU on lifts and 2014/30/EU on electromagnetic compatibility, and push-button accessibility follows EN 81-70 with Braille marking and illuminated call acknowledgement, on a two- or three-button station as much as anywhere else. A goods lift in a shop with public access does not get a different criterion from a passenger elevator.
Two honest caveats. Codelift does not sell a closed goods-lift or home-lift product: what exists are configurable controllers from the catalogue that cover this installation profile. And where the apparatus is a lifting platform or a goods-only lift not accessible to people, the applicable regulatory framework may not be EN 81-20/-50, so the first step in quoting is establishing which standard the work falls under.
Box format for hydraulic installations with limited space, delivered pre-wired with its loom set and inspection station.
WHEN THIS ONEA pre-wired hydraulic box format, for rooms where a cabinet does not fit. The configuration that lands most often in goods and home lift work.
Hydraulic version of the ORIÓN controller, with the same 2-wire serial architecture and boards configured per installation.
WHEN THIS ONEWhere the power unit is already installed and there is room for a cabinet, carrying only the boards the configuration needs and no surplus electronics.
ORIÓN control with FUJI Lift-2 inverter and vector control: smooth starts and stops with ±1 cm levelling accuracy regardless of load.
WHEN THIS ONEFor a traction home lift: the FUJI Lift-2 range starts at 4 kW (10 A), with ±1 cm levelling accuracy and smooth starts.
BR-400 control board, 279 × 124 mm, with status display, absolute encoder management and multiplex operation.
WHEN THIS ONEWhen fully serial car-to-landing operation is wanted on a few-stop installation, on the same board that covers a later expansion.
