1.1 Emergency Procedures
State-of-the-art elevator and escalator engineering have developed mechanisms that greatly reduce the risks to life and property in emergency .situations, but building personnel still playa vital role at these times in directing occupants to safety, in monitoring equipment, and in ooerating controls that initiate emergency routines. The proper hand ling of elevators. and escalators in an emergency could mean the difference between life and death. You should, therefore, insure .' ;that all your building personnel are familiar w'ith emergency procedures suitable to your building structure and all of its equipment, including elevator and escalator equipment, in case of accidents, fire, earthquake, ,power failure and t~e like, by contacting local authorities including your fire department for ar:lpropriate advice, inspections and drills.
• Fireman's
Service -. Special Emergency
Service (SES lFeature
Otis' SES is engineered to allow control of elevator operation in the event of fire or other time-sensitive emergencies, particularly where immediate access to specific building areas or floors may be desirable. One or more of your elevators is equipped with SES.
Phase One:
Automatic Return to Lobby
Phase One of SES is designed to capture automatic passenger elevator cars and return them to the lobby or other designated floors.
I
r
• MM-11?
Phase One is usually initiated manually by operation of a hall-mounted keyswitch, or it is automatically activated through tripping of a fire or smoke sensor or sprinkler system installed by you in your building. Once it is activated or initiated:
o
Registration of calls is inhibited and calls already in registration are cancelled.

Cars already at the lobby or alternate designated floor remain parked, with doors open.
0
Doors are opened at the exit floor, allowing passengers to exit the elevator.
0
Cars traveling away from the lobhy or alternate .designated floor will reverse and return to the lobby or alternate designated floor, non-stop.
0
Any car not operating automatically will be given an audible and visual signal to close the doors, so the car can move to the lobby or alternate designated floor, without stopping.

Emergency
Procedures
Restoration of Normal Service
At the appropriate time, normal elevator operating conditions can be restored by bringing all cars with SES to the lobby or alternate designated floor, and by returning Phase One and Phase Two keyswitches to their normal positions.
All Elevator Equipment Should Have SES It is recommended by Otis that all your elevator equipment be equipped with SES if it has not already been installed. Please call your local Otis office for information on its installation ..
Power Failure Emergency Power Option
•
If your elevator system is equipped with an emergency power supply (typically, a diesel generator), it can be activated as follows: 1)
Elevator electric power feeders may be switched from normal to emergency power.
2)
If your elevator system's Emergency Power Option has an automatic mode and is set to the AUTO mode, each car will be automatically brought down non-stop to a previously designated floor (typically, the lobby or street floor) and doors will open to allow passengers to leave the car. After all cars have been brought to the designated floor, the cars remain parked there, until one or more cars are selected to provide normal service.
3)
• MM-117
If your elevator system's Emergency Power Option does not have an Automatic mode, or if that mode is not invoked, selector switches may be operated manually to bring down each car, in turn. After all cars have been brought to the designated floor and evacuated, the cars will remain parked there, the selector switch may be operated to choose which car or cars will provide normal service .

Elevators
An Otis "VF" elevator can run on battery power for up to four hours during a power outage. The total available service is the sum of the individual battery hours. A four-car group, for example, where each battery pack had three hours of charge remaining, could if desired provide elevator service for up to 12 hours during a power outage if building personnel allow only one elevator to operate at a time.

1.2 Owner's Checklist
~ Elevators that respond promptly to a call for service, and provide a smooth" ride in a clean, well-lighted car, make a favorable impression on tenants and visitors alike. Thus, elevator performance, because of its hiphly visible nature, plays a significant role in establishing the rental or resale value of a building.
I
Elevators are sturdy machines, built for long and dependable service. By knowing how to assess elevator performance, the owner can assure the continuously high-quality service for which the equipment is designed. When a shutdown does occur, there are a few simple procedures that can often make the shutdown as short as possible .
•
For the building owner or manager, minimizing shutdowns involves knowing: o
What to do on a daily basis so that serious problems are minimized.
o
What to do in case of malfunctions and how to recognize conditions that require immediate service.
,vstem Upkeep Trained service personnel should be engaged to examine, clean and lubricate the elevator equipmen1 at scheduled intervals. There are, however, some areas of general upkeep which are the building owner's or manager's responsibility:
General Cleanliness
• MM-11?
The machine room, the pit and cars (particularly the door sills) must be kept free of debris. Ashtrays placed in the building's lobby encourage passengers to extinguish their cigarettes before entering the elevators, thereby cutting down on litter.
1.2-1
Owners Checklist
•
Some environments -- manufacturing plants, for example - can"be unusuallv susceptible to dust or grime. These conditions may call for frequent cleaning by a service examiner. The elevator
owner should never attempt to clean machinery. A Dry Pit
The pit area must be kept dry and clean. The service examiner will" alert the building "owner to any water or oil in the pit, and will supervise cleaning by the building staff. Machine Room Temperature
For proper equipment operation, the machine room temperature must never fall below 450F (l0C) or rise above 1000F (3aoC). How To Observe the Operation Of Elevators A member of the building staff should go through the following procedures regularly with each elevator car:
o
•
Test the Safety Devices Test alarm bells, stop switches, intercoms, telephone hookups and emergency lighting systems to be sure they will work if there is an emergency.
o
Ride the Elevators Ride the elevator, paying attention to the smoothness of starting and stopping, to any unusual sounds (such as squeaks or scrapes), and "to any unusual movements, vibrations, or odors. Close your eyes to increase awarenessof irregularities.
o
Listen During Rush Hours Stand in the lobby during peak traffic periods, " listening to passengers'comments. They will probably remark on any shortcomings in elevator service.
What To Look For
•
The following nine-point Safety and Performance Check List can be applied on a regular basis to most elevator systems. 1.2-2
MM-117
Owner's Checklist
•
o
How Long Must Passengers I'!,aitfor an Elevator at the Lobby? Well-timed arrivals and departures, as well as proper acceleration and deceleration are critical to fast, efficient service. Typical maximum service intervals for ,various applications are listed below: Office Buildings Hospitals Hotels and Motels Apartments, Luxury Apartments, Development
o
o
MM.117
Secs. Secs. Secs. Secs. Secs.
Do the Passengers Have Enough Time to Enter and Exit Before the Doors Close? In most elevators, the minimum a'cceptable time for doors to remain fully open on a car call is three seconds. However, in many cases, one-half to one seco'nd is sufficient if an acceptable door protection device is used. For hall calls, the minimum acceptable time depends on the number of elevators in the bay and on the distance from a point in the center of the lobby to each elevator. The time is measured from notification that a car is arriving by a lantern and audible signal. Times vary and can be longer for elevators that service many elderly or handicapped persons. The speed at which the doors close is also an important safety consideration. Maximum door closing speed is determined by the weight of the door and the type of door operator emploved.
•
•
30 60 50 70 90
If the Elevator is Equipped with Electronic Detectors or Light Ray Devices, do the Doors Reverse Direction without Touching Passengers? ' These devices enable a closing door to reverse direction without touching passengers. Reversal must take place therefore as soon as the doors near the passenger (if an electronic detector is in use) or as soon as the light ray beam is broken. In order to conform to standards, the door should also remain either partially or fully open (depending upon the door operator system employed) until the obstruction is removed from the beam .
o
If the Doors are Equipoed with a Rubber Safety Shoe, do they Reverse Direction as soon as the Shoe makes Contact with a Passenger? 1.2.3
Owner's Check list
•
The shoe mechanism should operate as soon as the rubber makes contact with an obstruction causing the closing door to immediately reverse direction and open completely. Failure to reverse direction, or to remain open as long as contact with the rubber shoe is maintained, constitutes a code violation and a safety hazard. Officials sometimes shut down a car for such violations.
o
Does the Car Stop Level with the Hall Floor? The car should stop within one-half inch of the hall floor. Leveling should be consistent, whether the car is full or empty.
o
Is the Alarm Bell in Working Order? The alarm bell should be tested once a week. This quick and simple procedure will guarantee that the bell will work when and if it is needed.
o
Is the Alarm Bell Connected to the Stop Switches?
•
When this anti-crime measure is implemented, the alarm bell will ring when the Stop switch is flipped. The bell not only alerts building personnel to an emergency, but often frightens a potential criminal into fleeing the premises before accomplish ing any mischief.
o
If the Cabshave an Intercom or Telephone Hook.Up, is it in Working Order? Intercoms and telephones should be tested regularly. Passengerscan be spared inconvenience when minor mechanical difficulties occur by following instructions received over the intercom or teleohone. During an emergency, communication with passengershelps to alleviate or avert panic. At these times, information from passengerscan be of great assistanceto emergency personnel.
o
Is the Interior of the Elevator Adequatelv Lighted? Check that all light switches are on, all lamps lighted, and all diffusers clean to oermit maximum transmission of light.

Owner's Checklist
In Case of Malfunction Before Calling for Service
The following points should be checked for service on a disabled car:
before calling
o
Is the Stop switch in the Run position?
o
Are the key switches
o
Are there obstructions
o
Is full power available?
o
Is the main-line fuse in the machine
in the correct
position?
in the door track?
room blown?
When these items are checked ann the car still does not run, a service call should be placen immediately. In many cases, however, this check list will minimize unnecessary shutdown and help the service company provide faster service.
•
Minor problems require neither a shutdown nor a service call. Door timing that is slightly off, or floor indicator lights that no not work, for instance, are minor problems that need only be noted and reported to the service examiner on the next visit.
When Shutdown is Necessary
When a problem appears to threaten passenger safety, the car involved should be shut nown and serviced immediately. Safety is always the first concern. Elevator machinery is not to be serviced by people who lack the necessary training ann expertise. Tinkering in the machine room or hoistway is .hazardous to the person working on the elevator, to the passenger, and may be detrimental to the elevator itself. Building personnel should monitor car operation, but should leave more complex tasks to the experts .

System Description
The principal components of your MRVF elevator installation are shown in the cutaway view of Figure 2.1-1.
•
The. passenger car is mounted to a carframe, suspended in the hoistway between Tee-shaped guide rails. The car is composed of strong, lightweight panels that incorporate the principles of honeycomb construction developed for the aircraft industry. The carframe that supports the cab and platform is of conventional construction consisting of two upright members, plus a crosshead above the car and a plank or safetY channel beneath the car. Roller guides, affixed to the top and bottom of each upright, hold the car on the rails. The car is supported in the hoistway by several wire-rope cables called hoist ropes. These hoist ropes go up and around a large, cast-iron pulley called the drive sheave, which is part of the hoist machine. From the drive sheave, the hoist ropes go down and around a deflector sheave (so called because it deflects the ropes from the center to the side of the hoistway) to the top of the concretefilled counterweight. The drive sheave grooves are fitted with polyurethane liners which increase the traction between grooves and ropes. The "long wrap" employed, wherein the arc of contact between groove and rope is considerably greater than with the single-wrap arrangement, also increases the traction.
•
The counterweight weighs as much as the elevator car loaded to about half its rated capacity. It is suspended in the hi:>istway between steel guide rails. Either sliding guide shoes or roller guides, depending upon the application, are affixed to the top and bottom of the counterweight frame to hold the counterweight against the guide rails. Counterweighting makes it easier for the hoist machine to lift the car. The car is moved by the action of the hoist machine turning the drive sheave. The machine consists of an alternating-current motor, a solenoid-controlled disc brake, flexible coupling, helical gear reduction, drive sheave, and deflector sheave, all mounted on a common bedplate. The primary power source for the drive system is a 16-cell bat.tery pack. Battery charging current is obtained from regenerative power during overhauling loads, from the single-phase building supply at other times. During a building power outage, the elevators continue to run on battery power, and can do this for several hours, until the battery-pack voltage falls below a preset value. 2.1.2

Battery Cabinet
The motor is driven by a solid-state inverter. This is a device in the main controller which converts the battery voltage into an alternating current of an amplitude and frequency specified by a predetermined speed profile. The main controller generates the speed profile and enforces it through tachometer feedback from the motor. The main controller also determines direction of travel as a function of car position with respect to calls in registration, and generates commands which open and close the car and hoistway doors. A car-mounted position reader contains switches, actuated by vanes mounted on "floating tape" in the hoistway, which the following functions:

A series of four limit switches, at top and bottom of the ho istway, are actuated by car-mounted cams in the following order: The normal terminal stopping device initiates a slowdown sequence that becomes effective if the car has not already started to decelerate at the terminal landing.
•
The emergency slowdown switch will initiate an emergency stop if the car exceeds a predetermined speed at the terminal. The direction limit switch will initiate an emergency stop if the car overshoots the terminal landing by more than 2 inches. The final limit switch will Initiate an emergency stop if the car approaches the buffer. A group controller is furnished as part of the main controller whenever there is more than one elevator in the installation. Its function is to coordinate the response of all cars in the group so that only one car starts for any hall call, and the average time to respond to the call is minimized.

3.1 Inspection
J"
A regular program of preventive maintenance, as described in this manual, will curb depreciation and improve both the appearance and performance of your elevator installation. As described in this section, preventive maintenance consists of three elements:
•
o
Inspection of the items listed in Table 3-1. This table lists those indications of substandard performance that can be corrected by following the instructions given in the later sections of this manual.
o
Cleaning of machine room, top of car, and equipment to prevent the build-up of dirt and grime that could impede the smooth functioning of mechanical elements.
o
Lubrication, following the instructions in Table 3-2, below, to minimize wear between mating surfaces, and to promote smooth operation.
The virtues of regular cleaning and lubrication are well understood. Less appreciated are the advantagesof a thorough inspection of the complete elevator system. By following the procedures in Table 3-1, an experienced examiner can often uncover and correct a problem in its early stages,when repair and adjustment can be made with least expenditure for time and replacement parts. Perhaps just as important, frequent shutdowns are avoided and service is optimized, resulting in a high level of passengersatisfaction.

4.1 Controller
The main components of the MRVF Drive System are housed in the controller cabinet of Figure 4.1-1. Each of these main components is described below. The three-section transistorized inverter supplies variable-frequency, three-phase power to the AC drive motor. Each inverter section consists of two high-power transistors with associated free-wheeling diodes and suppressors mounted on a common heat sink, plus a printed-circuit board containing a base drive circuit for each of the transistors. A four-board cardfile, next to the inverter, develops control signals for the inverter. The cardfi Ie contains:
•
o
an Inverter Control Board, consisting of a pulse-width modulator, a current regulator, and the logic required to protect the inverter transistors from damage due to malfunction.
o
a Speed Control Board, consisting of a speed regu lator, a torque control, and interfaces to the elevator controller and safety circuits.
o
a Frequency and Amplitude
Control Board
which provides the reference three-phase control signal of variable frequency and amplitude that dictates the corresponding currents in the three-phase motor windings. o
a Speed Dictation Board which provides the reference speed profile that dictates the actual elevator speed.
The outboard Cardflle Power Supply includes the safety relays that disconnect the transistor base drive power supply each time either a normal or emergency stop is made .
f
. The hinged relay panel, in the middle portion of the cabinet, contains a complete operation control, . plus some motion control and logic functions. Hall effect (current-sensing) devices and input filters are located behind the hinged panel.

The lower section of the cabinet contains a battery charger; a DC-DC inverter that supplies power to the main elevator drive, and three chokes, one ,in series with each of the motor , windings.
Operating Principles The MRVF system uses a four-pole AC induction motor driven from a variable-frequency power source. The speed of a three-phase induction motor depends upon the frequency of the AC power applied to it, the number of poles, and the load conditions. When operating without load, the motor speed is directly related to the supply frequency. For example, if a 60-Hz supply frequency is applied to a four-pole motor operating at no load, the motor rotates at
•

120 xJ2Q. ; 1800 rpm 4
If the supply frequency were reduced to 30 Hz, the motor speed would be only 900 rpm: The no-load speed of the motor is called the synchronous speed. When the motor is placed under load, its speed changes by an amount called the slip speed (in rpm) or the slip frequency (in Hz). The slip increaseswith load, reaching a maximum value at full load. The MRVF system maintains a slip frequency of.:!;1Hz at maximum torque. When the drive is motoring, that is, when power is fed to the motor for acceleration and for driving a positive load (full load up, empty car down). motor speed is less than synchronous speed and the slip frequency is given as a positive number.

When the drive system is regenerating, that is, when the motor acts like a generator, returning power to the source during deceleration and when driving an overhauling load (empty car up, full load down), the speed of the motor is greater than the synchronous speed and the slip frequency is given as a negative'number. Assuming a -1 Hz slip frequency and a 60-Hz source driving a four-pole motor, motor speed during regeneration is

Precise slip control is essential in elevator applications. Accurate positioning at the floor requires the ability to operate near zero speed, which is a function of precise frequency control. A comfortable ride depends upon smooth acceleration and deceleration, which requires precise control of torque (a function of slip frequency and current) and smooth change of speed (a function of smooth change of torque). Finally, the efficiency of an elevator motor depends upon its ability to regenerate power. Maximum regeneration occurs at maximum speed and at a slip frequency of approximately 1 Hz, and may reach approximately 30 percent of maximum power during motoring.
•
The MRVF system utilizes the 'regeneratedpower to charge a storage battery which servesas the principal source of energy ,to operate the elevator. As shown in the system block diagram (Figure 4.1-2), the elevator car is propelled by an AC induction motor driven by a battery-powered inverter. The inverter changesthe DC output of the storage battery into three-phase AC power of smoothly. variable frequency and amplitude. The frequency and amplitude are controlled by the inverter to produce positive slip (corresponding to positive torque) when power is to be taken from the battery for motoring, and negative slip (corresponding to negative torque) when regenerated power is to be used to charge the battery. A separate charger maintains the battery at full charge during motoring and shutdown. Using a storage b,attery as the principal power source has three important advantages: o

level average power required for keeping the battery charged. As a typical example, the peak currents delivered by the battery during acceleration and deceleration could reach:!: 150 amperes, while the average charging current could be in the range of 10 to 15 amperes. The battery thus practically isolates the drive system from the building power lines.
• Motion Control
o
The battery also acts as a low-pass filter, keeping any inverter-generated noise out of the building lines.
o
Further, as a source of emergency power, the battery is capable of running a single elevator for approximately four hours during a power outage. Block Diagram
The MRVF motion controller makes the car follow a speed command produced by the speed dictation circuit and automatically produces the torque required to provide the acceleration and losses corresponding to each point on the speed trajectory. The motion control block diagram of Figure 4.1-3 shows how this is accomplished.
• MM-127
The speed regulator compares the speed dictation command with the actual speed of the motor as determined by the shaft encoder. The difference between these two input signals becomes the speed error, a DC voltage proportional to the extent of the error. . 4.1-5

Control Block Diagram
The torque control converts the speed error voltage (and an internal "bias" related to the motor . excitation current) into two torque-related signals; amplitude and slip control. 1)
The amplitude control signal is a 0-8VDC voltage that specifies the peak ampl itude of the three-phase motor current.
2)
The slip control signal is a O-j;5VDC signal that specifies the slip frequency of the motor. (The slip frequency is the difference between the synchronous and asynchronous'speeds of the motor for a given frequency of input.) The slip control is a positive voltage during motoring, a negative voltage during regeneration.
Torque control circuit constants are chosen so that the torque developed by the drive system is linearly proportional to the input voltage (speed error). The relationship is independent of motor speed.

motor input. All three sine waves are of the same amplitude and the same frequency, but are phased 1200 apart. 1)
The amplitude of the reference output can be varied from 0 to +10V, in proportion to the 0-8VDC amplitude input control signal.
2)
The frequencv of the reference output is determined by the 0-:t5VDC slip frequency command and the motor shaft frequency as determined by the speed feedback shaft encoder. The reference frequency is the difference between the slip and feedback frequencies during motoring. During regeneration, the reference frequency is the sum of the slip and feedback frequencies.
The current regulator compares the three-phase current reference signals from the amplitude-frequency control with the actual drive motor current as measured by Hall effect devices that sense the current in each leg of the drive motor. Each of the three regulator outputs is a sinusoid that represents the error (difference) between the two current regulator inputs . These variable-amplitude sinusoidal outputs specify the current level required in each phase of the drive motor. The pulse-width modulator converts these sinusoids into three pairs of variable-width, constant-amplitude pulses, each pair specifying the current level to be produced in one phase of the drive motor. The frequency of each pulse modulator output is constant at 2KC (500 microseconds between pulses). The pulse width varies with the amplitude of the input so that, in each pair, the pulses are mirror images of each other, as follows:

The inductance of the motor and the series chokes serves to filter out the 2.KC high.frequency component of the motor current so that the current builds up to the commanded level at a sinusoidal rate.

The deadband prevents the simultaneous conduction of two transistors in the same leg of the inverter, a situation that could cause a dead short across the battery and a potentially destructive current surge through the transistors.

Special Operational and Motion Control Features The MRVF system incorporates the following unique features. Battery Operation
During Power Outage
Elevator service is not interrupted by building power fai lure. The elevator continues to run on battery, and can do this for several hours, until the battery voltage decreasesto al1Proximately 150 volts. Each MRVF elevator can provide normal service up to four hours without a generator after the building loses normal power. The total available battery back-up time is the sum of the individual battery hours. A four-car group, for example, where each battery pack had three hours of charge remaining, could if desired provide elevator service for up to 12 hours.during a power outage if building personnel allow only one elevator to operate at a time .
•
If battery voltage falls to less than 150 volts, automatic controller circuits will call the car nonstop, at reduced speed, to the main landing, light the PLEASE EXIT WHEN DOORS OPEN jewel in the car, open the doors to permit exit of passengers at the main landing, and shut down the car, leaving the doors open. Manual reset is required to restore the car to operation after a low-battery condition. Releveling
A heavily loaded car will occasionally overshoot the floor by up to 1.5 inches. Upon detection of th is condition, releveling circuits will wait approximately 1/4 second to allow for dropout of relays in the drive logic unit, and will then bring the car back to within 1/2 inch of the floor. Anti-Stall
Circuits
Monitor circuits, in operation during both the .acceleration and deceleration portions of a run, .will initiate remedial action if a stall condition is detected.
• MM-127
Should the elevator fail to reach a minimum speed of 30 fpm within 5 seconds of receiving the start signal, monitor circuits will drop safety link relays 4.1-9
Controller
e.
C, CX, CY, DRR, B1R, and B2R, shuttin9 off the drive. After a short delay, the start sequencewill repeat, giving the drive another try.
..
Should the elevator fail to reach floor level (:t 1/2 inch) within 5 seconds of dropping the URO or DRO relay, the monitor circuits will drop safety link relays C, CX, CY, DRR, B1R, and B2R, shutting off the drive. After a short delay, the safety link relays will be re-energized and the car will relevel into the floor at approximately 10 fpm. Wrong Direction Sensor
If the direction of rnotor rotation is opposite to that of the dictated direction, relay WRO will pull in and self hold. This will drop out relays C and CX, stopping the car. As a precaution against the possibility that WRO should prematurely release, relay CY stays in, preventing C and CX from pulling in.
•
Note that this is a different function from that of the J or reverse-phaserelay used in controllers powered from three-phase sources. The conventional J relay operates upon loss of one of the three-phase input lines, or phase reversal from the A-B-C sequence, or low voltage on any or all phases. The MRVF system, which derives primary power from a single-phaseline, does not use a J relay.
Adjustments The following precautions should be considered before attempting any adjustments: o
MRVF circuits seldom require readjustment. Do not perform any of these procedures unless a need for readjustment is indicated as. described in the following paragraphs:
o
Apply power in the following sequence: 1) Close disconnect switch on wall.

Renewal of Brake Lining
Since the principal function of the brake is to hold the stopped car at the floor, the lining wears very slowly and should give many years of service before renewal is required. If the lining must be replaced, check parts leaflet for part number of lining, and proceed as follows: 1)
Land counterweight (on suitable blocking if required). Pull main line switch and remove fuses.
2)
Remove brake pins and shoes from brake stand. Mark (center punch) shoes so they may be replaced in their respective locations.
3)
Cut off rivets on outside of brake shoes with small chisel, cutting close to the shoe. Drive out rivets with punch of same diameter as rivet, remove lining and clean brake shoe casting.
4)
Place and shape new lining squarely on shoe and clamp firmly into position with "C" clamps, starting at the center of the shoe.
. 5)
Using the holes in the brake shoe as a guide, drill through the brake lining with twist drill equivalent to the rivet size.
6)
'.. 7)
8)
MM.135
Counterbore each hole for rivet heads with counterboring tool.' Be sure to countersink fully. Start installing the rivets at the center of the shoe and work towards the ends. Drive rivet until firmly seated on bottom of countersunk hole. Place rivet head on rivet anvil and proceed with riveting. By installing the rivets from the center towards the ends of the shoes, the lining will conform to the shoe. Use the Drill Rod Setter to dress up the rivets to form a round head. Clean and adjust clearance between shoes and pulley as described below.
5.2.3
Brakes
Brake Adj.ustment
Before doing any work on the brake, always place the empty car at the top of the hoistway, with the counterweight landing on its buffers. Remove motor leads so that the brake can be operated without moving the car. Then, proceed as follows: 1)
•
Clean all brake pins in shoes, levers and cores. Remove rust. Smooth if necessarywith No. 00 emery cloth, then clean again with Otis cleaning compound to remove any particles of emery. Remove any excess. Lubricate pins with oil and assemble the brake. Be sure that pins are reassembledin their proper places, with cotter pins in place and opened. 0
2)
See that the brake lining is free from oil, dirt and gum and that the rivets are below the surface of the lining. If the lining is new, be sure that its surface conforms with the contour of the pulley.
3)
. Clean the brake pulley with Otis cleaning compound and wipe dry.
4)
Check clearance between shoe and drum with brake energized.
•
With internal brakes, the correct clearnace is .002 inch at the bottom, at least .015 inch at the top. With external brakes, clearance should be as small as possible without shoes touching drum at any point. Equalize the clearance by means of adjusting bolts. See that the brake spring rod does not bind in the brake shoe levers. Be sure set screws which hold brake shoe levers to the hinge pins are bearing against the flat side of the pins and are securely tightened and locked in place. Equalize spring pressure on external brakes by adjusting bolts shown in Figures 5.2-1 and 5.2-2. 5)
5.2-4
With internal brakes, remove, clean off all rust, and dry the eccentric pin. Reinstall. With approximately 2/3 brake spring pressure on the shoe, it should be possible to turn the eccentric cam very easily and to check if it is set in dead center of brake shoe movement. If correctly set, the small free movement will not move the brake shoe, but swinging the cam pin in either direction should move the lower end of the shoe away from the brake pulley. MM.135

6)
With internal brakes, install a new 1/16-inch roll pin to replace the one removed. No job should be left without this roll pin as it locks the cam in position to insure correct brake operation.

Both brakes employ a friction disc that rotates with the elevator machine, two fixed piates on either side of the disc, and a solenoid release mechanism. The brake is set by spring action bringing the fixed plates into intimate contact with the friction disc. The brake is released by a doc operated solenoid that pu lis the armature plate away from the friction disc. Thus, brake operation is fail-safe.

The motor and camswitch assembly (Figure 7.1-2) comprises a fractional horsepower de motor, a 17: 1 speed reducer, and a set of cam-operated switches. The motor is double-ended. One end drives the variable-pitch leadscrew through a flexible coupling that absorbs shock and vibration and can tolerate axial misalignments up to 1 degree. The other end drives the camswitches through the reduction gears. The camswitches, sometimes referred to as the cam pack, are enclosed with the reduction gears in a separate housing attached to the end of the motor casing. The drive screw assembly (Figure 7.1-3) comprises a 21-3/4 inch, variable-thread leadscrew, a drive or roll nut, and a pin that is inserted through the top of the drive nut and rides in the thread of the leadscrew. Ball bearings are used to secure the pin within the drive nut so that it can rotate freely as it follows the lateral movement of the pin. The
7.1-2

•
free end of the leadscrew is supported by a bearing bracket bolted to a weldment on the hanger assembly. The varying pitch of the leadscrew provides mechanical acceleration and deceleration of the door(s). (See Figure 7.1-3.) The 3/4 inch segment closest to thp. motor is pitched at 1.125 inches per revolution. This means that the drive nut will move laterally 1.125 inches for every revolution of the motor. The next 3 1/2-inch segment is a transition area where the pitch increasesfrom 1.125 inches to 2.25 inches per revolution. The pitch remains at 2.25 inches/revolution during the next 14 inches and then goesthrough another transition area where the pitch is reduced to 0.75 inch/revolution. These dimensions apply only to 42-inch center-opening doors. Lead screws for other types and sizes will have a similar pattern, but the pitch may be different. This "programmed" mechanical motion is further enhancerl by electrically controlling the motor speedl,especially at the beginning and end of door travel.

The door hanger (Figure 7.1-4) is one continuous piece that almost spans the width of the door. Each end has a pair of rollers that ride on a tubular track just below the lead screw. The V.angle of the rollers prevents the door from swaying in and out while upthrust rollers under the tube prevent the door from being raised any appreciable amount. The track is supported in three places by U.bolts secured to weldments on the header assembly. The door hanger is coupled to the clutch vane assembly which, in turn, is attached to and moves with the drive nut. For center opening doors, the other door hanger is driven by a conventional aircord arrange-

ment. The aircord makes a complete loop around the sheaveslocated on each end of the header and is terminated and clamped on the hanger ends nearest the leading edge of each door. The bolts securing the aircord sheavescan be tightened as required to adjust the tension of the aircord loop. A springtensioned wheel closer, often referred to as a spirator, is mounted on the door hanger of the non-driven door and connected to the hanger of the driven door. Unlike hoistway door spirators, this spirator is needed only to keep the doors moving towards their fully closed position during the -last 3/8 inch of travel. This requires very little force, approximately 1/2 pound.

When the doors are fully closed, the roller on one end of the clamp van~ will be on the cam, thereby holding it in the retracted position. There is a 3/8-inch clearance between the drive vane and the hoistway door latch roller and another 3/8-inch clearance between the door latch roller and the drive roller for a total of 3/4 inch of travel of the drive nut and vane housing before the doors actually begin to open. As the drive nut begins to move in the door open direction, the drive vane will contact the door latch roller after 3/8 inch of travel and unlock the hoistway door interlock during the next 3/8 inch of travel. After approximately 3/4 inch travel, the hoistway door will begin to open and at the same time the vane housing will contact the rubber bumper on one side of the door hanger (Figure 7.1-6) causing the car door(s) to begin opening. After approximately 1 inch of travel, the clamp vane roller will ride off the cam and the vane will engagethe hoistway door rollers. During the door close cycle, it is the clamp vane that pulls the hoistway door closed. The car door is pushed in the closing direction by the gib pressing against the cam follower on the other side of the door hanger. This arrangement is used to eliminate the 3/4 inch travel the vane assembly housing would normally make before it engagedthe car door hanger. At approximately 1 inch from the fully closed position the clamp vane will again ride up on the cam, causing it to disengagefrom the hoistway door drive roller and the cam follower. However, spirators on both the car and hoistway doors will continue to drive them in the fully closed direction.
•
Figure 7.1-6 shows some of the mechanical details of the clutch vane assembly. The vertical cylinder of the drive nut casting slips into a yoke at the rear of the vane housing and is secured in place by a pin at the bottom. The vane housing is attached to the door hanger with a rod that secures the lower end of the housing between the hanger brackets. The clamp vane is spring loaded to firmly secure the door interlock rollers between it and the drive vane. The car door is opened by the vane housing riding on the rod between the angles on the door hanger. During the door close cycle, one end of the clamp vane pulls the hoistway door in the closing direction, while the gib on the other end pressesagainst a cam follower mounted on the door hanger to push the car door closed.

Resistor box adjustments are required only if circuit components have been changed. (See Figure 7.1-8.) It is suggested that only resistors DCl and Dl (door close) and the D01/D02 pair (door open) be adjusted as follows: 13) Stall the doors approximately halfway closed and adjust resistor DCl to provide about 25 to 30 pounds of stall force. (Move terminal 2 of DCl up to decrease the stall force; move down to increase stall force.) Changing resistor DCl has an effect on the door speed. Restore door closing speed to 1 foot/second by adjustment of resistor Dl. (Move terminal 2 of Dl up to decrease the door speed; move down to increase speed.) 14)
•
In the door open direction, adjust parallelconnected resistors DOl and D02 to vary the door speed. Moving up terminal 2 of both resistors decreases the door speed; moving them down increases the door speer!.
15) Once the door is operational, the spirator should be fine-tuned so that the doors close and remain closed without rebounding. Adjustments should be made in 1/4-turn increments. Also verify that the leadscrew is clean and oilfree; use Otis No. 2 cleaner and dry rag to clean if required. Also verify that all pivot points on the clutch vane assembly are lubricated. Use Otis Bearing Oil No. 12 as required. Drive Pin Replacement

The door operator is supplied with the Type 7300 door check assembly, Figure 7.1-14. The door check assembly is a hydraulic device used to slow down and cushion door operation at each end of travel. A lever within the door check, which rotates with the segment, drives a double-ended piston in an oil-filled housing. A chamfer on the end of the piston surface restricts the flow of oil back into the housing' as. it moves towards the closed end of the cylinder. As the doors approach the fully open or closed position, the pressure in the cylinder builds up, thereby increasing the load on the engine. Once the flowback is completely cut off by the chamfer (Figure 7.1-15), 01 I is still allowed to escape from the cylinder through a needle valve and a return line in the housing. The adjustment of the needle valve determines the amount of bleed-off and therefore the cushioning effect at the end of door travel. 7.1-14

OVL Door Operator The OVL Door Operator (Figure 7.1-20) is an intermediate-to high-speed unit utilizing a chain drive and arm linkage assembly to translate the rotary motion provided by a fractional horsepower de motor into the horizontal motion needed to open and close the car and hoistway doors. The reversible de motor drives the pulley by means of a sprocket-driven chain. One end of the drive arm is attached to one side of the pulley; the other end is attached to the arm linkage consisting of the arm and door link assemblies. Door position is detected by a series of cam-operated contacts located in the door operator control box next to the motor. Door speed is controlled as a function of door posi!ion by the cam-9perated contacts which, in turn, energize relays that add or remove resistances in the armature circuit of the door motor.

OTIS 7.2 Door Protective Devices
Type 6993AL Safety Shoe The door safety shoe came into use with the introduction of automatic push-button elevators. It is a protective device that causes the car door to reopen whenever it strikes a passenger or object in the doorway while closing. The safety shoe, or some other door reversal protective device, is now installed on all elevator car doors .

Safety Shoe
The Type 6993AL safety shoe (Figure 7.2-1) consists of three elements: the shoe assembly, the drive assembly, and the wiring. The shoe assembly, which is attached to the door, consists of the soft-nosed vertical edge and the lever mechanism. The drive assembly consists of the parts needed to retract the shoe. The wiring simply connnects the door reversal switch to the 7.2.1

controller and is listed here primarily because it is installed when the shoe is installed. The AL safety shoe works with all current door operators. The operation of the AL safety shoe is relatively simple. The key elements of the safety shoe are clustered about the upper pivot. (See Figure 7.2.2.) There are three moving parts mounted on two stationary pivots. The left pivot, marked B, supports the bellcrank. The right pivot, marked A, supports both the bracket and lever arm and each can move independently. Also note that the shoe, which is supported on a similar pivot arm at the bottom of the door, will move in and out as the lever arm. is rotated about pivot

Key Elements of Safety Shoe
The least complex motion occurs when the shoe is pushed as the door closes. (See Figure 7.2-3.) The pivot arm moves up and in about pivot A until it hits the limit stop. This causes the opposite end of the pivot arm to release the switch button which, in turn, initiates a door reversal. The inward push on the shoe is resisted by the tension spring at the bottom of the pivot. This spring has two functions: It tries to keep the pivot arm tight 7.2-2

•
against the bracket, and it helps to keep the shoe from bouncing when it is extended. Note that this shoe is NOT counterbalanced; the shoe is light enough and pivots smoothly enough so that only a tension spring is required rather than a counterbalance spring. Since there are no other applied forces, the bellcrank and bracket do NOT move when the shoe is' pushed.

Pushing on Safety Shoe
When the shoe is retracted, everything moves. (See Figure 7.2-4.) As the door approaches the fully open and fully closed positions, the aircord ,pulls up. This causes the bellcrank to turn clockwise about pivot B. The dual-springed coupling then causes the bracket to rotate counterclockwise about pivot A. The bracket then pushes through the limit stop to turn the lever arm counterclockwise, and causes the shoe to retract. All springs are under increased tension and work to restore the parts to their initial positions once the pull on the aircord is released.

Adjustments
The only adjustments required are the setting of the door reversal switch and the coupling, which should be dimensioned as shown in Figure 7.2,5. The remaining springs are not adjustable. The two extension springs must be strong enough to keep the switch bracket tight against the coupling and restore it to this position when the shoe is extended. The tension spring must similarly keep the pivot arm tightly against the down-limit stop on the switch bracket when the shoe is extended.

Maintenance
Preventive maintenance of the Iight ray involves keeping the lens and reflector target free of dust and grime. If the unit fails to operate, it most likely is due to either misalignment of the light source and target, or to relay failure. Failure of the light ray affects door operation as shown in the table below.

Detector
The Otis Type 7048 electronic door detector (Figure 7.2-10) is used in lieu of safety shoes and light-ray detectors in high-rise, high-performance elevator systems. The main advantage of this device is that it operates on a proximity principle, causing door reversal when a passenger or object passes near the door edge. It thus re-opens the doors sooner than the safety shoe, which requires actual contact with the passenger before initiating reversal. It also eliminates the unnecessary door reversals that occur as .soon as the Iight ray is interrupted, even if the doors are almost fully open and in no danger of striking the passenger. The overall effect of the electronic detector, then, is to reduce passenger transfer time when a stop is made. The electronic door detector comprises a power supply and memory unit mounted on top of the car, and a detector chassis and preamplifier unit mounted on the leading edge of each door.
• . MM.138
The Type 7048AA detector contains four antennas and is designed for use with standard doors. (See Figure 7.2-11.) The antennas, preamplifier unit, and a terminal board to facilitate wiring are mounted on an L-shaped vinyl-clad metal alloy base plate. The antennas are preformed L-shaped steel strips, each approximately 16 inches long. They are protected by a similar vinyl-clad L-shaped cover. The open end of the chassis, along the leading edge of the door, is covered by two L-shaped Tenite faceplates. The adjustment controls of the preamplifier are accessible when the top faceplate is removed .

Type 7048 Door Detector
The Type 7048BB detector chassis contains an eight-antenna array and is primarily used with close-coupled doors. (See Figure 7.2-12.) Each antenna is approximately 7 1/2 inches long and is equally spaced along the L-shaped base plate. A separate base plate, approximately 12 inches long, is provided for the preamplifier unit and terminal board. Separate covers and faceplates are provided for each base plate. Most detector circuits are located on a single printed-circuit board mounted within an open rectangular frame. (See Figure 7.2-13.) The unit is sealed with transparent plastic covers. Three controls are provided for each of the two detector circuits: balance, sensitivity, and an ON-OF F switch. The balance control is adjusted to tune the bridge for a null condition when the doors are closing and the doorway is clear. The sensitivity control adjusts the amount of unbalance needed to initiate a door reversal. 7.2.10

The power supply is mounted on top of the car. (See Figure 7.2-14.) Transistors 01 and 02 and transformer T2 are part of an oscillator circuit which generatesthe 200-volt, 1-KV reference. This signal can be monitored at the 80 test jack. The REDUCED 1KC potentiometer is adjusted for a reduced sensitivity of the system when the doors are almost fully closed. Normally closed contacts of the EPR relay initiate a door reversal when the relay drops out. Transformer T1, Zener diode CR14, and capacitor C3 are some of the internal power supply components that generate the dc operating voltages for both power supply and preamplifier circuits. The system can be turned "on" or "off" by means of the EDC switch which is in the secondary circuit of transformer T1.

Power Supply
To prevent temperature and humidity changes from unbalancing the bridge circuit and causing repeated door reversals,a memory circuit, consisting of a printed-circuit board, wiring, and associated hardware is included in the power supply, The memory circuit (Figure 7.2-15) samples and memorizes the preamplifier null level each time the doors open and no obstruction is in the doorway. This level then becomes the reference for the system. The system is fired to re-open the doors only when a signal, produced normally by passengers entering or leaving the car, is sufficiently higher than the reference level. 7.2-12

Cleaning
Accumulation of dust, dirt, or moisture on the detector faceplate or within the detector unit can cause delays in service through false triggering of the detector. You can avoid this problem by keeping the detector clean and dry. There are two levels of cleaning: 1)
Wiping down the faceplate
2)
Internal cleaning.
and;
The cleaner to use with either operation
is
Otis Detector Faceplate Cleaner.
• MM-138
Wipe down the faceplate at least once a week in humid, dusty environments; the more humid and dusty the environment, or the more dirt that is tracked into the elevator, the more often this faceplate should be cleaned. Wiping the detector faceplate with a clean rag dampened slightly with cleaner, not only helps remove dust and dirt, but also helps remove any static charge. Be sure to clean out the ribs in the plastic faceplate in addition to wiping down the surface . Internal cleaning of the detector units should be performed at least annually. This process requires removing the detector unit from the door panel 7.2-13
Door Protective Devices
•
and cleaning the preamp chassis as well as all internal surfaces with a clean rag dampened with cleaner. In addition, the edge of the door panel where the detector unit is mounted should be wiped down before re-installing the detector. Adjustments
Detector adjustment should be checked if the unit tends to false fire (too sensitive) or fails to fire (not sensitive enough). Be sure detector is clean and dry before making any adjustments. Two DIPswitches on the memory circuit board (one for each bridge) are used to adjust the sensitivity. (See Figure 7.2-16.) Setting a DIPswitch to "on" shunts one of the series resistors, thereby increasing the sensitivity. With two sWitches "on" and two "off", the sensitivity of the detector is essentially at the mid-range position. Set the DIPswitch for maximum sensitivity without false firing.

The preamplifier output is measured at the test points in the car service cabinet. (See Figure 7.2-17.) The positive meter probe is inserted into the black test point and the common probe into the orange test point. The meter is set on the dc scale and initially on the 60-volt range. When taking readings, keep the meter inside the car and away from the detector antennas. 7.2.14

Output
The null or residual voltage may have increased slightly after the sensitivity amplifier has been adjusted. However, the residual for either antenna pair should not exceed 0.75 volt. This check is made with both the T and B switches "on". If the car has center-opening doors, repeat the entire procedure for the other door. There is a desensitized zone when the door is 6 inches from the fully closed position, and in the case of close-coupled doors,when the doors are approximately 1 inch from the fully open position.
• MM-13B
In this desensitized area, the doors should reopen only when the faceplate is touched. To test this desensitizing feature, block the doors near the fully closed position6 inches or less. Run a hand along the faceplate from top to bottom. If the EPR relay does not remain de-energized, increase the BO supply by turning the REDUCED 1KC potentiometer in the clockwise direction. (See Figure 7.2.14.) If the EP R relay drops out before the faceplate is touched, decrease BO by turning the potentiometer in the counterclockwise direction. 7.2.15

Memory Circuit Output
To adjust the memory circuit, set the voltmeter on the 1Q.volt dc range and connect it to the special test jack. (See Figure 7.2.18.) Open the doors slightly and touch the leading edge of the door. The output of the memory circuit, as observed on the meter, should be 4.3 volts maximum. Remove your hand and allow the doors to open fully. When the doors open past the desensitized zone, the meter reading should not change. The memory circuit output should remain at 4.3 volts during the entire open and close cycle. If not, check the connection of the desensitizing contacts. Type 9948R Door Detector The Otis Type 9948R door detector (Figure 7.2-19) is used in lieu of safety shoes and light-ray detectors in high-performance elevator systems. The main advantage of this device is that is operates on a proximity principle, causing door reversal when a passenger or object passes near the edge of the closing door. 7.2.16

It thus re-opens the doors sooner than the safety shoe which requires actual contact with the passenger before initiating reversal. It also eliminates the unnecessary door reversals that occur as soon as the light ray is interrupted, evenif the doors are almost fully open and in no danger of striking the passenger. The overall effect of the proximity detector, then, is to reduce passenger transfer time when a stop is made.
• MM-138
The 9948 R Door Detector consists of a power supply, one or two antenna units, associated mounting brackets, hardware and cables. The antenna unit is attached to the leading edge of the car door in the traditional manner or can be mounted on the nose of close-coupled doors. As with safety shoes, one antenna unit is attached to each car door; therefore, cars with center-opening doors require two antenna units. The power supply for the antenna(s) is mounted on the top of the car controller. 7.2.17

The antenna unit (Figure 7.2-20) consists of an antenna assembly and deflector enclosed with in a polyvinyl chloride (PVC) housing made up of an extrusion cladding and a faceplate. Two PVC plugs seal the top and bottom of the antenna assembly. Five holes are located at the top of the faceplate to provide accessto adjustments and the null indicator used during installation. The antenna assembly (Figure 7.2-21) houses the electronic circuits which become accessible when the faceplate is snapped off the extrusion cladding. It consists of the U-shaped guard, an output connector (stereo jack), a printed circuit board (located under the nomenclated cover), and a set of antennas: upper and lower and two auxiliary antennas.

The power supply unit (Figure 7.2-22) consists of a single printed circuit board enclosed in a metal case. It serves as the junction box for the door detector and all connections to the car controller. The power supply unit contains a regulated power supply, a low-frequency oscillator and relay driver and several controls, adjustments, and a neon indicator. Two terminal strips provide the tie points connecting power, the antenna unit(s), a door position input, and door-reversal output. The relay provides the door-reversal output. It is normally energized, and drops out when an unbalanced condition is sensed .. A diode is connected across the breaking contacts of the relay and should be removed when the door detector is used with controllers using ac relays. The neon lamp lights up when the relay is energized to indicate that the antennas are balanced.
•
The ON/OFF switch turns off only the power supply outputs (and de-energizes the relay). It does NOT disconnect the source voltage. The DESENSITIZED SENSITIVITY adjustment permits the detector sensitivity to. be set to some reduced value when the car door is at each of its limits. Adjustments
See Figure 7.2-21. The door detector is adjusted with the car leveled at a landing and with the door operator made inoperative. For center opening doors, each detector is adjusted individually with the opposite door made inoperative by disconnecting the stereo jack at the top of the antenna unit.

8.1 Rails and Guides Guide Rails Cars and counterweights are guided up and down the hoistway on rails of either Tee or round cross section. Assembly of the Tee-shaped rails to the hoistway wall is shown in Figure 8.1-1. The two'piece bracket permits both vertical and horizontal adjustment of rail position. The tie.plate prevents horizontal motion of the rail with respect to the bracket. The rail is held firmly against the bracket by a clipand-spring combination. However, clip design permits the rai I to move vertically with respect to the bracket as the building settles. To prevent rust formation that would inhibit this sliding action, the mating surfaces of the spring and the rail are coated with grease or heavy oil during installation.

Roller Guides Roller guides are guide shoes that ride on the "T" or round guide rails to keep the car or counterweight aligned and plumb with the hoistway. More importantly, they maintain the position of the car safety (and, where used, counterweight safety) such that the safety jaws will engage the guide rails when tripped. Roller guides are located at four positions on the car frame: two at the top on opposite ends of the crosshead, and two at the bottom on opposite ends of the safety-plank channels. (See Figure 8.1-5.) The top roller guides differ from the bottom roller guides only by the addition of guard plates. A similar arrangement weight.

Roller Guide Assembly
A typical roller guide comprises three rubbertired rollers mounted on a stand: two side rollers for front and rear alignment and one for side-to-side or postwise alignment. (See Figure 8.1-6.) Each roller rides on a bearing and is mounted on one end of a lever. The other end of the lever is attached to a compression spring wh ich maintains the roller in constant contact with the rail blade. Each roller arm has two adjustments: one for spring tension, which determines the amount of pressure the roller has on the rail blade; and a stop, which limits tlie maximum displacement of the roller.

Rails and Guides
Several variations of the typical are in current use.
•
roller gu ide
o
A springless guide for hydraulic applications uses rollers mounted on eccentric shafts. The eccentric permits adjustment of roller position with respect to the rail blade. A three-roller version is supplied for "T" rail applications, a two-roller version for round rails.
o
Some smaller roller guides utilize a single tension spring for the two side rollers. There is no spring adjustment for these side rollers, but there are stop adjustments.
/
Maintenance
A properly lubricated roller guide should give long, trouble-free service. No adjustment or maintenance is required unless a noisy ride or excessive sway is noticed when riding the car. A noisy ride is symptomatic of excessive spring pressure, a defective rubber tire, or lack of lubrication.
•
To locate the defective roller guide, turn each guide by hand. If the roller cannot be easily rotated, the fault is either excessive pressure or lack of lubrication. Lubricate the pin and bushing area with Otis Oil NO.2. If necessary, add grease to the Alemite fitting. If the roller still appears stiff, ease up on spring tension. Replace entire roller if rubber tire exhibits flat or worn spots. The tires are of a special rubber, selected after extensive tests of many compounds, and are vulcanized directly to the metal. wheel. Tires will give long service if the roller is properly lubricated and spring pressure correctly set. A scraping sound heard when the car is loaded to one side, or excessive sway during full-speed runs, are symptomatic of incorrect spring pressure or incorrect adjustment of the stop. To locate the source of the scraping, ride the top of the car with a 600-lb weight in the back of the cab. If scraping sound does not occur, repeat test with the weight in the front, then on the left, and finally on the right side. Run at full speed, listening for the noise. If heard, take up on the mechanical stop as shown in Figure 8.1-6 . ..8.1.6

Setting of Spring-Adjusting Block
The same test can be made to locate the source of excessive sway. If the space between the roller arm and the stop (Figure 8.1-7) is always more than 1/16 inch, increase the number of active turns set by the spring-adjusting block. Back off if the roller arm touches the stop. If any springs are readjusted, do not forget'to reset the stop nut. For roller guides that don~t have spring-adjusting blocks, the spring compression is either increased or decreased, as needed, by turning in or backing off the spring-adjusting nut or stud. (See Figure 8.1-8) A good starting point is to pry the car until the slot in the guide stand rests solidly against the rail blade. Set the spring compression finger-tight, then release the pry and advance the adjusting nut two turns for 7 7/8 inch rollers, or one turn for 3 3/4 inch rollers. The stops are set to prevent the guide stand from rubbing against the rail blade when the test run is made with the eccentric or unbalancing weights placed at each of the four platform positions shown earlier. It js permissible if the roller arm touches the stop occasionally during the test run.

Ten-inch roller guides have two additional rideimproving adjustments: a tie rod between the front and back rollers and a dashpot on the postwise roller. (See Figure 8.1-9.) Both the tie rod and dash pot should be removed when making the stop and spring adjustments just described. When the stop and spring adjustments are complete, reinstall the tie rod, which is, threaded like a turn-buckle, and turn it in a direction that reduces the pressure of the side rollers against the T-rail until one roller is just about to lift off the rail. Then turn the tie rod one-half turn in the opposite direction. (See Figure 8.,.,0.) The tie rod applies a precompression force to the springs when the roller is just touching the rail. S.l.S

The smaller or larger holes in the disc may also be tried to improve the riding qualities. Sliding Guide Shoes Sliding guides are sometimes installed on low-speed (hydraulic) installations with round rails. (See Figure 8.1-12.) The sliding guide offers greater resistance to sway than the roller guide, an advantage in a hydraulic installation where the car is supported principally by a telescoping cylinder with a tendency to tilt slightly when fully elongated. 8.1.10

Sliding guides are also used on low-speed counterweights with round rails. The guide shoe is faced with a concave nylon gib at the point where contact is made with the round rail.

Gib life is increased by Cleaningthe rails annually with Otis Cleaning Compound NO.2. Clean more frequently if rails begin to show an accumulation of gummy residue. Periodically measure the thickness of the gib (see Figure 8.1-131 at its minimum point. If less than 5/16 inch, replace gib.

Switch
The Type 6072 stopping switch (Figure 8.2.1) is used in high-rise installations to slow down and stop the car at the terminal landing if the normal slowdown sequence should fail to occur. This switch is mandated by the elevator safety code which requires that a device, separate from and independent of the normal slowdown circuit, be furnished to stop the car at the terminal.
• MM.140
As .shown in Figure 8.2-1, this GWitch consists essentially of a roller, actuating arm, and contact assembly. Only one Type 6072 switch is supplied per car, but it is arranged to stop the car at both the top and bottom terminals. 8.2.'

Stopping Switch Installation
As shown in Figure 8.2-3, the hoistway-mounted cams are shaped to gradually move the roller arm from its center, non-actuating position to its extreme clockwise or counterclockwise position, depending upon the direction of travel, as the car approaches a terminal landing. With a relay controller, motion of the roller arm opens the 55 contacts sequentially, initiating a slowdown sequence that reduces car speed and finally stops the car. This emergency slowdown sequence is arranged to operate slightly behind the normal slowdown. If normal slowdown is operational, the emergency slowdown has no effect. If car speed is detected as being excessive at the terminal, the emergency slowdown sequence gains control of car motion, slowing down and stopping the car at a somewhat more abrupt rate than the normal sequence. 8.2.2

With the microprocessor-based Elevonic controller, if car speed is detected as being excessive at the terminal (indicating that neither normal nor backup software slowdown routines have functioned properly), opening of a stopping switch contact will initiate an emergency stop. Maintenance
The stopping switch and cams have been positioned during installation and should remain as originally set. These switches require very little maintenance. Periodically check that the cam operating face and the switch contact assembly are smooth and free of accumulated dirt. Be sure that all joints between cam sections are filed smooth. The rubber-tired rollers will emit noise if the rubber tire is loose on the roller or the ball bearing is not properly lubricated. If the tire is worn or loose, replace the entire roller, including the bearing.

Maintenance
•
Carefully check alignment of rubber roller with cam. Side or diagonal travel of roller wears the rubber tires. Switch arms that are self-centering should have only enough spring pressureto bring them back to normal position. Heavy spring pressurewill compress the rubber tire unnecessarilywhen it strikes and rides on the cam, an action that tends to break down the adhesion that bonds the tire to the rim. Keep the surface of the cams clean and free of any lubricant or any gummy or sticky substance.

8.3 Traveling Cable
One or more multi-wire electrical cables connect the car to the machine room. The first part of the cable run is from a junction box at the bottom of the car to a junction box on the wall approximately half way up the hoistway. These cables move with the car and hence are called the "traveling cables." The remaining part of the run, from the hoistway junction box to the machine room, is made in rigid conduit or in metal troughs. Maintenance
If sections of the traveling cable become worn or chafed, due to rubbing on rough spots on the wall or rubbing on the car or beams, the cable loop may have to be adjusted, the rough wall smoothed, or beam pads installed .
•
The cables should be suspended at a point above the center of travel and hung on a hanger under the car. The loop should be of just the right width so that the portion of the loop suspended from the center junction box will hang clear of both wall and car. Further, there should be no obstructions that will damage the cable, nor should the cable swing against the rails. There must be sufficient space so that the cables will not be crushed as the car passes. The chafed spots on the cable should be taped carefully. If a cable is accidentally torn off, it may be spliced if the splice does not become part of the loop. When all spares in the cable have been used and a cable wire is broken, the broken wire should be locateq and spliced if the cable is otherwise in good condition. The splice should not be soldered because of the stiffness this imparts to the splice joint .

All roped passenger elevators are equipped with safety mechanisms (car safeties). In addition, counterweights located over occupied areas are also equipped with safety mechanisms (counterweight safeties). Both safeties work on the same principle. For simplicity, only the car safety system is described. In a typical arrangement of an elevator safety system (Figure 8.4-1), the governor rope makes a complete loop around the governor sheave in the machine room and the tension sheave in the pit. One end of the governor rope is fastened to the releasing carrier of the safety on the carframe plank beam, the other end is clamped at the governor rope hitch on the crosshead. Since the rope is connected to, and travels with the car, the governor sheave will rotate at a speed directly proportional to the car speed. Type 7063 Governor The type 7063 governor (Figure 8.4-2) is installed on elevators operating at speeds higher than 150 feet per minute .. As shown in the chart, the 7063 governor is equipped with any one of three sheaves, depending 0'; the speed of the car.

Figure 8.4.3 illustrates the type 70638 tripping assembly that is standard with the low-speed 7063A governor. When the car overspeeds, the flyweights, driven outward by centrifugal force, trip an overspeed switch that cuts off power and sets the brake. If car speed continues to increase, the further outward motion of the flyweights trips the latching device which then releases a swinging jaw. 8.4-3

Details
Figure 8.4.4 shows a more detailed view of the 7063B tripper assembly. It has two tripper arms. The inner and longer tripper is struck first by the flyweight lug as the car begins to overspeed. The rotation of this tripper actuates a pushbutton switch module that opens the safety chain. If the car continues to gain speed, the flyweights will move out further and the second or outer tripper will be engaged by a flyweight lug. The latch holding the movable jaw swings out of the way as the tripper cam rotates. Higher-speed governors such as the 7063F, use the type 706~BB tripper assembly (see Figure 8.4-5). A rod attached to one of the flyweights moves out of the sheave hub as the governor comes up to speed. This outward movement of the rod is translated into a horizontal movement of a plunger inside the sheave shaft.
•
When the car overspeeds, the end of the plunger actuates speed contacts (in a type 7063J switch box) and the tripper, through a bellcrank and connecting link. 8.4.4

Trip Assembly
Figure 8.4-6 illustrates the basic speed-sensing mechanism of the 7063F governor. As the car comes up to speed, the rod attached to the flyweight is pulled out of the sheave hub. The other end of the rod is attached to a bellcrank that moves the plunger inside the sheave shaft a distance proportional to the movement of the rod and flyweight and, therefore, to the car speed. The end of the plunger is connected to a second bellcrank that actuates the tripper assembly. If the car begins to overspeed, the plunger will have moved far enough for its shoulder to rotate the bellcrank. The connecting link is pulled towards the sheave, causing the tripping lever to rotate. The direction of rotation will depend on the arrangement used, but in either case, the resulting motion of the cam will actuate the overspeed switch. Further overspeeding causes the latching lever to swing out of the way and release the movable jaw. 8.4-5

As the bellcrank pulls the connecting link towards the sheave, the lever will rotate on its stationary pivot pin. This forces the spring-loaded cam to open the pushbutton overspeed switch contacts. Further overspeeding causes the lever to make contact with the tripper arm which, in turn, will cause the latching lever to swing aside and release the movable jaws.

Flexible Guide Clamp Safety
• MM.142
The car safety (Figure 8.4.12) consists of two safety clamps (one per guide rail) bolted to the bottom member of the elevator carframe and connected by a system of rods and Iinkages to the governor rope. Each safety clamp has two steel jaws to grip the guide rail and a heavy spring to regulate the pressure exerted by the jaws . When the elevator car is traveling at normal speed, the jaws remain in the "ready" position where they do not touch the rails. If the elevator overspeeds in the down direction, the 8.4."

8.5 Buffer
The pit-mounted buffer is designed to bring an elevator car or counterweight to a cushioned stop if it overtravels the landing at the lower terminal. The buffer is built to absorb the impact of a fully loaded car descending at full rated speed. Note that the function of the buffer is to protect the passengeragainst some malfunction of the control mechanism which allows the car to descend beyond its normal limit of travel. The buffer is not designed to stop a freely falling car; this function is performed by the elevator safety mechanism.
•
Buffers are installed on all power elevators, electric or hydraulic. If rated speed is 200 fpm or less, a simple spring buffer may be used. For higher speeds, oil buffers are required. Spring Buffers The spring buffer is basically just a large, heavy-duty coil spring, welded to a base plate, which in turn is used for mounting the buffer in the pit. Spring buffers are rated according to the load to be stopped. With large cars or heavy loads, several spring buffers may be used, each rated to carry an equal portion of the total load. No maintenance is required, except for normal cleaning and inspection. Type 6136R Oil Buffers An oil buffer (Figure 8.5-1) consists basically of a spring-loaded plunger and an oil-filled cylinder. Operation of an oil buffer is described below.
• MM-143
o
If the descending elevator car overtravels the lower landing, a heavy steel plate under the car frame strikes the rubber contact block on the top of a steel plunger. This rubber block absorbs the first shock of contact .
o
Further descent of the car drives the steel plunger into the oil-filled inner cylinder of the 8.5-1
Buffer
•
buffer. This forces the oil through the escape holes in the side of the cylinder, and produces sufficient oil pressure to retard the descent of the car and bring it to a smooth stop. o
When the car is lifted from the buffer, a compression spring returns the plunger to its normal position at the top of the cylinder. This permits the oil to flow from the reservoir back through the escape holes into the inner cylinder and the buffer is again ready to function. RUBBER CONTACT BLOCK

Type 6136R Oil Buffer
If the buffer in a traction elevator should fail to spring-return, a switch operated by the depressed plunger either prevents further motion or allows motion but at low speed only. The buffer stroke (distance plunger can be depressed) depends upon the load and speed. It is figured to stop the car or counterweight from governor tripping speed at any retardation of gravity. Where a full-stroke car or counterweight buffer cannot be provided because of space and speed conditions, a shorter stroke buffer can be used, but the speed at which the car or counterweight strikes the buffer is limited to the value for which the reduced-stroke buffer is rated. 8.5-2
• MM-143
Buffer
•
Car or counterweight speed is reduced by the potential switch slowdown (PSS) circuit. In this circuit, a limit switch is installed in the hoistway at a position above the buffer. When .the car passesthe switch, the switch contacts are opened, slowing down the elevator to a speed safe for the buffer stroke. For a reducedstroke car buffer, PSS is furnished at the lower terminal. When a reduced-stroke counterweight buffer is used, PSS is arranged at the upper terminal. Restoring Service after Buffer Compression
For the car to have contacted the buffer, it must have gone beyond the final limit of travel, and have opened the final limit switch in so doing. This limit switch must be jumped out in the machine room in order to move the car off the buffer. In Elevonic installations, where a buffer switch (BFS) is provided, this switch must also be jumped to move the car. If the plunger fails to spring return after the car or counterweight is lifted from the buffer, service cannot be restored until the buffer is thoroughly examined to determine the cause. This usually requires disassembly of the buffer. The buffer contains heavy-duty springs under compression. If unfamiliar with buffer disassembly, please have this procedure performed by Otis Elevator Company.
• Maintenance'
There are no adjustments to be made on the buffer. Check the oil level every three months through either the sight gage or the dip stick. Refill to required level with Otis approved buffer oil. If pit has been flooded, empty reservoir by opening drain plug at bottom. Examine fluid that leaves reservoir. If It contains .sediment or mud, buffer must be disassembledand cleaned before being refilled. Buffer contains heavy-duty springs under compression. If unfamiliar with buffer disassembly, please have this procedure performed by Otis Elevator Company.
After buffer has been drained, and if necessary cleaned internally, refill reservoir to required level with Otis approved buffer oil. Be sure all external parts of buffer are dried to retard rusting after the flood.
• MM-143
8.5-3
•
Type R06136 "HP" Oil Buffer The "HP" oil buffer (Figure 8.5-2) performs the same functions as the Type 6136, but is of simpler construction and designed for lighter-duty applications. Maintenance
There are no adjustments and no replaceable parts on this buffer. Check the fluid level every three months through the oil port. Refill to required level with Otis approved buffer oil. Th is buffer is of sealed construction so that flooding of the pit should not present any problems unless the water reaches the level where the plunger enters the reservoir, and unless the buffer has been compressed at the time. If this combination of circumstances occurs:
"
1)
Drain pit, raise elevator.
2),
Pump out buffer oil through oil port. Examine oil. If it contains sediment, try flushing out reservoir with water until sediment is washedout.
3)
Refill reservoir to required level with Otis approved buffer oil.
4)
Hose down and dry off exterior.

Maintenance
The following fundamental safeguards should materially aid in prolonging the useful life of wire ropes.
Lubrication:
Lubrication of ropes (see lubrication section) effectively preserves the pliability of the rope, minimizes friction between wires and strands during normal operation, and retards corrosion.
Sheave Grooves:
It is important that ropes have proper and equal bearing in the grooves of the sheaves over which they pass. When wire ropes have been in use for a long while, the grooves may be worn or corrugated and the sheave may be out-of-round. A new rope operating in a worn sheave groove is subjected to considerable abuse and needless wear. Differences in the relative depth of grooves will result in unequal rope travel and unbalanced rope tension. Examine sheave grooves periodically for unusual wear and, if necessary, check groove sizes and depths.
•
A sheave out-of-round throws a "whip" into the rope and causes wire fatigue at the point of hitch. If this condition exists the sheave should be regrooved or replaced. A corrugated sheave should also be regrooved or replaced. Misalignment of the sheaves and hitches may cause wear on one side of the sheave grooves. Careful examination should disclose whether this is\ contributing to the wear of the sheaves or the ropes.
•
It is possible that the hitch on the top of the car may have shifted, causing a side pull on the ropes in their relation to the alignment of the sheaves. Check also the alignment of the counterweight ropes.
MM-'44
8.6-'
Ropes
•
Tension (Equalization): Wire rope tension should be checked at frequent intervals during the life of the ropes. and adjustments made, as necessary, to equalize the set. Unbalanced tension will result in unequal rope and sheave wear. Ropes should never be twisted when making adjustments as this disturbs the natural lay of the ropes. Rope Replacement
Ropes require replacement when rusted and broken strands can be seen on the exterior. All ropes on a particular car should be replaced at the same time, even if only one shows excessive wear. If unfamiliar with the procedure for replacing ropes, please have this procedure performed by Otis Elevator Company.
