Overview
Elevator and escalator systems combine traveling cable, safety circuits, and control wiring that must operate reliably for millions of cycles over decades of building service.
Design & Construction
Traveling Cable Flex-Life Design
Steel-reinforced traveling cable withstands millions of hoistway travel cycles while carrying power, control, and communication circuits between car and controller.
Safety Circuit Redundancy
Redundant safety interlock wiring meets elevator code requirements, with clearly separated safety and standard control circuits for straightforward inspection and service.
Manufacturing Process
Built under ISO 9001 process controls with flex-cycle and continuity testing, supporting elevator and escalator OEMs across new-installation and modernization programs.
Typical Applications
- Elevator traveling cable assemblies
- Car-top and pit control wiring
- Escalator step chain sensor cabling
- Safety interlock circuit wiring
- Elevator control panel interconnects
Common installations include Elevator traveling cable assemblies, Car-top and pit control wiring, and Escalator step chain sensor cabling, where chemical and abrasion resistance for continuous duty in plant-floor conditions are the primary design drivers. The same base design can also be adapted for Safety interlock circuit wiring and Elevator control panel interconnects with minor changes to connector type or cable length.
