Accurate floor levelling is an important part of elevator operation, as it help passengers enter and exit the elevator comfortably. KONE elevator sensors are used as part of the elevator control system and assist with monitoring elevator car position during travel.
Levelling sensors help the elevator determine when the car has reached the correct stopping position at a floor. By providing position-related information to the control system, these sensors support accurate floor levelling and contribute to smooth passenger movement between the elevator car and landing.
The available KONE levelling sensor range includes models such as 61U/61N, 77U/77N, BAR2000, 61U/61N/30S and 77U/77N/77M/77S, along with additional levelling sensor variants for selected elevator applications.
KONE elevator sensors help with:
1. What is the purpose of a KONE levelling sensor?
A levelling sensor helps the elevator determine the correct stopping position at a floor landing
2. Why is accurate floor levelling important?
Accurate levelling helps reduce the gap and height difference between the elevator car and the floor landing.
3. How does a levelling sensor work?
The sensor provides position-related information that is used by the elevator control system during travel and stopping operations.
4. Are levelling sensors used in every elevator?
Most elevator systems use sensors as part of their control and positioning arrangements, although the design may vary between models.
