Principles of Operation
- The piston gear moves almost without friction and lifts the car because of the gas hollow on the upper part.
- An opening that controls how much air gets in controls the pneumatic depression, lets the car go down, and controls how fast it goes
- The bottom of the shaft is open so that air can get in freely when the pressure is at normal level.
- At each floor or level, air pressure makes the seals on the door’s edges close on their own.
- The car has locks that make it stop at the top and bottom of its range.
- In case of free fall, a safe device (a chute) stops the fall.

EXTERIOR CYLINDER
The cylinder is a transparent self supporting tube around a specially designed aluminum structure. The tube walls contain curved polycarbonate sheets. The tube consists of modular sections, which easily fit into one another. The roof of the tube, made of steel, ensures air-tight closures with suction valves and inlets.

ELEVATOR CAR
SUCTION ASSEMBLY
or “Head Unit” is on the top of the tube/cylinder, where the turbines, the valves, and the controls are present. The control cabinet is a metal box housing with a PVE controller board and other electric devices. The head unit is present on either the same tube that holds the car (standard), or separately (split unit) at distances of up to 30 linear feet (10m) from the lift. The frame of the suction assembly is of either fiberglass or steel depending upon the model.
