Comments
The emergency BODE brake has failed during unintended motion. The elevator has been shut down for public use until repairs can be made. This is a custom brake system installed by Schindler Elevator. Otis has been consulting with Schindler engineering to find a solution. Parts are non-existent as this is a one-off custom application. Otis is on contact with a board repair vendor to see if they can possibly repair the control board. We are also evaluating installing a completely different emergency brake system (rope gripper). Otis is consulting with Schindler to find what is required to modify the TXR5 controller. In addition things are complicated as the system speed is also custom slow for all equipment being evaluated. The perfect storm of problems is upon us. The elevator is operational to move small lab items and research cylinders at the request of the facility and Patty when needed. Just let us know and we can schedule with a with mechanic to operate the elevator and move equipment. Any questions please ask. thank you
