HYDROFIT Owner’s Information Manual
WARNING: The use and ownership of this work is defined in the legend upon the front page hereof.
Access Fixture Assembly
Access Fixtures are usually mounted in the entrance jamb and are used by service
technicians. They contain keyswitch/es for special operation of zoned access, which
allows the elevator to be moved (within defined distance and speed limits) with the
landing and car doors open.
Buttons
Buttons come either illuminated or non-illuminated, with a raised or flush target, and
in either standard or vandal-resistant versions. Pressure applied to a button
registers an elevator call or other operation, such as opening or closing the doors or
sounding an alarm.
Keyswitches
Keyswitches operate electrical contacts by turning a key to set positions. They may
offer one, two, or three key positions and are of spring and non-spring return types.
Activating initiates special actions that are described in the pages that follow.
Jewels
Jewels are located in both hall and car fixture assemblies. These fixtures are
illuminated lenses with printed or graphic information. They inform passengers of
various elevator activities, operating most often in conjunction with keyswitch
activation.
Emergency Stop
An Emergency Stop is a toggle or keyswitch wired within the elevator’s safety chain.
Activation causes a break in the chain, bringing the elevator to a stop. The
emergency stop function is mandatory for all elevators in the U.S.
Braille Character Insert
Braille Character Inserts are raised letter/graphic markings and Braille characters for
buttons to be used by the visually impaired.
Utility Outlet
A Utility Outlet is a receptacle offering access to 110 VAC power supply.
Audible Signal Device
An Audible Signal Device is a device that provides an audible tone each time the
elevator car passes a landing.
Buzzer
A Buzzer is a device that provides a continuous alert when firemen’s service
operation is activated or when the doors are nudging closed.
