Digital elevator safety - the future without mechanical components

Elevator technology is breaking new ground: Kübler is replacing mechanical systems with digital intelligence - for greater safety, efficiency and sustainability in every elevator system.

The safety of elevator systems is a top priority. In the past, numerous safety-relevant functions, such as door monitoring, emergency limit switches or safety gear for the elevator car, were mainly implemented using mechanical components. The regular inspection and maintenance of these mechanical safety devices in particular is time-consuming and cost-intensive. At the same time, new standards are increasingly demanding more advanced safety concepts, meaning that traditional mechanical systems are increasingly reaching their limits. Whether modernization projects or new installations - the SIL3-certified Shaft copying systems from Kübler offer completely new possibilities in the field of digitalization of elevator systems.

Digital elevator safety - your benefits

Less maintenance: no need for mechanical parts
Greater safety: EN 81-20/21/50-compliant
Flexible use: modernization & new installation
Quickly integrated: ready for immediate use

Elevator and safety functions with intelligent safety gear management

Digital elevator and safety functions in accordance with EN 81-20/21/50 - including electronic overspeed governor, safety gear monitoring and shield mode.

Electronic overspeed governor with intelligent safety gear management

Electronic overspeed governor, digital monitoring and triggering of safety gears as well as protective area device - optionally with emergency limit switch and deceleration control.

Elevator and safety functions without intelligent safety gear management

Absolute positioning, UCM & safety functions - without safety gear triggering.

Safe elevator functions - SIL3-certified shaft copying systems from Kübler

Safe elevator functions - SIL3-certified shaft copying systems from Kübler

The system consists of the LES03 sensor for precise shaft copying and the PSU03 and SGT03 evaluation units -
for digital interception management, SIL3 safety and simple installation.

Safety gear management

  • Real-time analysis of driving data and detection of safety-critical overspeeds.
  • Direct, precise and instantaneous activation of the electromechanical safety gear in an emergency.
  • Controlled resetting and continuous status monitoring of the safety gear.

Elimination of mechanical components

  • Thanks to the digitally available shaft information, numerous mechanical components such as magnetic switches, ramps and roller limit switches are no longer required.
  • Reduced effort for installation and maintenance of the elevator system.

Plug & Drive

  • Can be used directly with all electromechanical safety gear from established suppliers according to the plug & drive principle.
  • Quick and easy installation of code tape and sensor with the aid of mounting kits.

Autonomous System

  • The electromechanical safety gears are triggered directly by the PSU03 or SGT03 evaluation unit based on the sensor data without having to go through the elevator control system.
  • Also perfect for retrofitting as part of a modernization project.

Security begins with trust.

As an industry manager for elevator technology, I am familiar with the challenges of implementing standards, modernization and digital safety architecture. I support you in setting up your projects in a structured, standard-compliant and future-proof manner.
