Energy use in elevator installations

摘要

An elevator installation with an elevator unit, which is connected with a power supply mains, is controllable by an elevator control with consideration of first control information based on local requirements of users. The elevator control receives from the power supply mains second control information containing status data for the power supply mains. The first and second control information is evaluated by the elevator control. The elevator control influences operation, which is determined by the first control information, of the elevator installation in dependence on the second control information so as to enable desired operation in terms of energy. A monitoring unit, which determines status data for the power supply mains and provides information for the consumers, is connectible with the power supply mains. The monitoring unit creates second control information for the elevator control in dependence on loading of the power supply mains.

主权项

1. A method for controlling an elevator installation, the elevator installation comprising an elevator unit connected to a power supply mains, a monitoring unit being coupled to the power supply mains, the elevator installation being controllable by an elevator control based on first control information, the first control information being based on local requirements of users, the method comprising:
receiving, using the elevator control, second control information from the power supply mains, the second control information comprising status data for the power supply mains; evaluating the first and second control information using the elevator control; operating the elevator installation using the elevator control, the operating being based on the first and second control information; creating the second control information using the monitoring unit, the second control information being based on a loading of the power supply mains; and sending the second control information from the monitoring unit to the elevator control, regulating energy for the power supply mains being reduced.
