Technical description
Translated from ROTA's published product information. Confirm current specifications for the selected model with ROTA.
The published system description lists a lift car and car frame, a hydraulic cylinder and piston, suspension equipment, buffers and a counterweight assembly within the hoistway. The final arrangement depends on the selected lift design.
A hydraulic power unit drives the lift. The car's weight assists downward travel. The source describes a machine room, commonly at ground level, containing an oil reservoir, hydraulic equipment, a control panel and hydraulic pipework.
Hydraulic lifts can be specified for passengers or goods. The published range describes travel over approximately two to six floors at 0.125–1 m/s. It lists 1,000–10,000 kg for single-jack systems and 10,000–90,000 kg for twin-jack systems; confirm the capacity of any proposed model with ROTA.
To specify a hydraulic lift, establish its intended use, rated load, travel distance and hoistway dimensions. Arrange periodic maintenance with an authorised lift maintenance company.
