Modernization

Basic modernization can include replacement of any of the following:

• Mechanical control relay systems with modern computer control.
  
• Motor generator sets with SCR (Silicon Controlled Rectifier) drive, VVVF (Variable Voltage Variable Frequency) drive, or negative feedback closed-loop systems.
  
• Mechanical selectors with modern electronic position transducers.
  
• Mechanical door edge with modern infrared door edge.
  
• Car and hall fixtures.
  

When do I need to modernize?

• When your building becomes less attractive to tenants due to poor elevator performance and heavy downtime.
  
• When the cost of maintaining the elevators is forcing you to change your plans for other building improvements.
  
• When replacement parts are no longer available through common distributors and original equipment manufacturers.
  

The Chicago Elevator modernization process begins with a free elevator performance assessment. We then present the customer with an equipment improvement plan. This plan includes a replacement system that is easy to maintain, non-proprietary, safe and reliable.
