Comfort Efficiency Safety and Quality Airiasol - Rothan

Products People Taking passenger experience to new levels Processes Reduced noise and vibration for a smooth ride Skyrise features Otis most innovative technology, such as advanced SNAP motion control to ensure smoother starts and stops at the beginning and end of each elevator ride. Thanks to aerodynamic car and cab design and ultra roller guides, passengers can enjoy a comfortable ride with minimal noise and vibration. When combined with Otis Compass destination management system, Skyrise transports passengers to their destinations up to 55 percent faster. Passengers simply enter their destination floor to receive an elevator assignment for the fastest, most direct and least crowded route to their destination.

ReGen drives deliver substantial energy savings while helping to meet or exceed established worldwide standards. Pioneering technology that is more efficient TM In an elevator system, energy is created during braking such as when a light elevator car ascends or when a heavily loaded car descends. In a typical nonregenerative drive, this energy is lost and is dissipated as heat into the building. Energy Skyrise Systems Space ReGen drives capture the energy that would normally be lost as heat. ReGen drives feed this energy back into the building s internal electrical grid where it can be reused by other building systems such as lighting. When combined with ReGen, Skyrise systems use up to 75% less energy. Permanent magnet synchronous machines use up to 50% less energy. LED lighting with standby mode is up to 80% more energy efficient than conventional fluorescent lamps. Adaptive motion profiling reduces peak energy requirement. The energy-efficiency of Skyrise systems have been validated based on standards set by Verein Deutscher Ingeniure (VDI). Skyrise systems achieved an overall A energy-efficiency class rating. Skyrise systems require a smaller hoistway, freeing up valuable core space inside your building. Permanent magnet synchronous machines are 40% smaller and when paired with Otis drive technology and control system which are 50% smaller, this enables a smaller machine room.

Innovations to ensure safety and quality Precise leveling and stopping accuracy At Otis, safety is not an option. It is at the heart of our technology and evident in our employees actions. The Skyrise system features precise leveling and stopping accuracy to ensure passengers are safe while entering and exiting the elevator. In addition, a controller monitors the system s electronic safety devices thousands of times per second to ensure constant peace of mind. Otis products are globally engineered and rigorously tested at state of the art engineering and test facilities located in the United States, Japan, Germany, Korea and China. Constant monitoring for constant peace of mind Otis two tallest elevator test towers are located in Shibayama, Japan (181 meters) and Bristol, Conn., United States (117 meters)

Dedicated teams for the most demanding challenges Products People Processes Successful high-rise projects require a specialized project team to anticipate the difficulties and complexities that will arise during construction. Our project teams will partner with you through each challenge and develop innovative solutions to meet the unique needs of your project. Otis has leveraged its extensive high-rise experience to develop a worldclass training program: Otis Major Project Management University. We train and develop talented project managers around the world who bring a wealth of knowledge and experience to each project and are committed to your success.

Refined processes for a more efficient installation Airiasol - Rothan Otis know it s not just what you do; it s how you do it. For more than 150 years, we have documented our processes; continuously improved upon them and are constantly in pursuit of perfection. This means Otis employees use only the safest, most efficient installation techniques to ensure the best results for your building such as scaffold-less installation, traditional jump lifts and self-climbing hydraulic jump lifts.

Pioneered by Otis: the hydraulic jump lift Otis developed the self-climbing hydraulic jump lift, an efficient installation technique which optimizes safety, delivery time and logistics. Jump lifts can be installed early in the construction process after the first few floors are complete Uses a hydraulic push and pull system so cranes are not required Reduces interruption to other building contractors Accelerates job site logistics with each floor jump requiring only four hours to complete Safer than conventional methods such as cranes or construction hoists Join Otis on our journey to The Way to Green People that are The Way to Green is about our commitment to continually moving our company and our customers forward. Skyrise and its energy-efficient features can help your building achieve Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) and Building Research Establishment Environmental Assessment Method (BREEAM) certification. We recognize that The Way to Green is an ongoing effort. But with the commitment of our people and our resources around the world, we know we can move our company, our suppliers and our customers closer to a shared goal of using greener products, services and solutions.
