OTIS elevator sensors are designed to detect, monitor and communicate critical information that keeps elevator systems operating accurately and safely. From protecting passengers at the doorway to ensuring precise floor alignment and speed monitoring, these components play an important role in delivering a smooth and reliable elevator experience.
At Bestech, we offer a range of OTIS Elevator Sensor Parts for maintenance, servicing and replacement requirements. Our collection includes photo sensors, levelling sensors and speed sensors used across selected OTIS elevator applications.
Photo sensors act as a protective barrier at the elevator entrance. They detect passengers or objects in the doorway and help prevent the doors from closing unexpectedly, improving passenger safety.
Levelling sensors ensure the elevator car stops accurately in line with the landing floor. This precise positioning supports comfortable entry and exit while enhancing accessibility.
Speed sensors continuously monitor the elevator's operating speed and provide data to the control system. This helps maintain ride comfort, accurate levelling and safe elevator performance.
Photo Sensors: Available in OEM options including SSGD-1L (NC) and SSGD-1H (NO).
Proximity Sensors: Magnetic Proximity Sensor (OEM: MPS-1600-OTIS).
Levelling Sensors: GLS126 Levelling Sensor (NO/NC), SGD-ADS-1, SGD-ADS-2, SGD-100A, SH-ADS-B, SGD-3EF and SSGD-2LM(S).
Speed Sensors: Available in OEM option SGD-PK126RS.
1. Why do elevators use multiple sensors?
Different sensors perform different functions, such as door protection, floor levelling and speed monitoring, to help ensure safe and efficient operation.
2. How do photo sensors improve passenger safety?
They detect passengers or objects near the elevator entrance and help prevent the doors from closing unexpectedly.
3. What role does a speed sensor play in an elevator?
Speed sensors continuously monitor the elevator's operating speed to support ride comfort, accurate stopping and safe performance.
4. Do elevator sensors affect ride quality?
Yes. Sensors provide real-time information that helps the elevator move smoothly, stop accurately and operate reliably.
5. Are elevator sensors important for accessibility?
Yes. Sensors such as levelling sensors help ensure the elevator stops accurately at floor level, making access easier for wheelchair users and other passengers.
