The Winter Peak Season for Lift Systems
Winter often brings about a unique set of challenges for lift systems, including increased usage due to festive traffic, harsh weather conditions and the potential for interference that can lead to system faults. The combination of these factors can put additional stress on your lift systems, making proactive maintenance even more critical.
Maintenance is Key
To maintain the reliability and safety of your lift systems during the winter, regular maintenance is essential. Here are our tips to ensure a well-functioning lift system:
Lubrication: Check and lubricate moving parts regularly to prevent resistance caused by cold temperatures.
Safety Inspections: Regularly inspect equipment such as position sensors, car operators and interlocks to ensure they are in working condition.
Heating Systems: Ensure that the lift machine room is properly heated to maintain optimal operating temperatures for the lift equipment (this is especially important for hydraulic systems).
Emergency Protocols: Review and reinforce emergency response protocols with your staff, and ensure they know how to respond in case of any system errors.
Remote Monitoring: Consider using advanced lift controllers like the Arkel Arcode and Arcube, which offer remote monitoring and diagnostics capabilities, allowing you to detect issues before they become problematic.
