What is the national standard for residential elevator size
1, in the design and installation of residential elevator, must pay attention to the load capacity and elevator size. Elevator load capacity is different, then the elevator size is bound to make a difference, as shown below:
(1) If the load capacity of the residential elevator is 630 kg, then the elevator door size (width × height) is 0.8 meters × 2.1 meters. The width of the elevator car is 1.1 meters, the depth is 1.4 meters, and the height is over 2.2 meters.
(2) If the load capacity of the residential elevator is 800 kilograms, then the elevator door size (width × height) is 0.8 meters × 2.1 meters. The width of the elevator car is 1.35 meters, the depth is 1.4 meters, and the height is more than 2.2 meters.
(3) If the load capacity of the residential elevator is 1,000 kilograms, then the elevator door size (width × height) is 0.9 meters × 2.1 meters. The width of the elevator car is 1.6 meters, the depth is 1.4 meters, and the height is more than 2.2 meters.
(4) If the load capacity of the residential elevator is 1150 kg, then the door size of the elevator (width × height) is 1 m × 2.1 m. The width of the elevator car is 1.6 m × 2.1 m, and the height is over 2.2 m. The width of the elevator car is 1.8 meters, the depth is 1.4 meters, and the height is more than 2.2 meters.
2, in general, the width of the elevator car of the elevator should be not less than 1.43 meters, the height should be not less than 2 meters, and the depth should be not less than 1.25 meters. The length and width of the elevator car can be changed, but not more than the actual area of the elevator car.
3, the standard size of the residential elevator is generally 2.1 meters × 2.2 meters or 2 meters × 2 meters. But the actual size of the residential elevator can be adjusted appropriately according to the residential area. In order to ensure that owners take the elevator more convenient and safe, in general, the load capacity of residential elevators should preferably not be less than 1000 kg.
Most of the residential elevators are based on the actual number of households in the building to predict the flow of people in and out of the building, so as to determine the elevator's load capacity, the number of installations, elevator size and so on. The above is the detailed introduction of what is the national standard of residential elevator size, I hope it will help you.
