3 Product Features

LIMAX02 is an absolute measuring shaft information system that is used for positioning of elevator cars. It con­sists of only two components: sensor and magnetic band.

A big advantage of the system is the simple and flexible installation. The assembly of the system components
is very simple and can be performed by specialists in less than an hour. The system can be placed anywhere in
the shaft, depending of the space conditions. With the small space requirement, LIMAX02 is perfect for retrofit­ting and modernization.

LIMAX02 detects the absolute car position up to a hoisting height of 260 meters and is designed for speeds of
up to 10 m/s. In the standard configuration LIMAX02 evaluates the position with a resolution of 1 mm. Resolu­tions up to 0.0625 mm are possible.

LIMAX02 is equipped with various interfaces and thus can be directly connected to the most established elevator
controls.

The features at a glance:

 Robust measuring principle for usage in rough environments
 Simple and flexible installation
 High accuracy and reproducibility
 No slip
 Absolute position is always directly available - no referencing even after long power outages

3.1 Functional principle

The concept is simple: A sensor mounted on the elevator car detects the current absolute car position using Hall
sensors, which read the magnetic tape mounted in the shaft without any contact. Through this method, the car´s
position can be determined at any time with high accuracy. The guide is only used to keep the tape within a
defined distance from the sensor.

Due to its robustness, the magnetic tape technology is ideal for use in elevator systems - dust, dirt, and even
dense black smoke won't affect measurement quality. The system even withstands humidity and high tempera­tures without any problems - making LIMAX02 ideally suited for firefighters´ elevators. And that with a long
maintenance-free service life.

5.2 Description installation of the Sensor

5.2.1 Installation Principe

LIMAX02 can be installed at any position in the shaft, depending on spatial conditions and layout of the particu­lar elevator installation.

The magnetic tape is installed freely suspended in the shaft. It can be fixed with the RMS mounting kit (available
as option) on the guide rail. Alternatively fixation in the shaft head is either on beams or directly bolted into the
ceiling. The necessary tension in the tape is provided by a tension weight of about 5 kg. A sway guard at the
bottom will keep the tape from swaying in an uncontrolled position. Alternatively the magnetic tape can be ten­sioned by a spring.

The sensor head can be mounted onto the cabin or cabin frame, depending on the spatial conditions of the
elevator.

Installation and First Start-Up

- 14 -

The integrated mounting notches on the housing of
the sensor head allow for a very simple and self­explanatory installation from three sides. You can
either use M6 hexagon head screws (DIN 933) or M6
square nuts (DIN 562), to mount the system at the
desired position.

Figure 7: Mounting grooves on the sensor

NOTE
During installation of the magnetic tape in the sensor, pay attention to the marks on the mag­netic tape and on the sensor head.

Wrong orientation of tape vs. Sensor head will yield incorrect position readings!
The arrows printed on the magnetic tape and sensor head point in positive counting direction
(in the direction of the shaft head)!

NOTE External Magnetic Fields
The magnetic tape must not be influenced by external magnetic fields!
The magnetic tape must not come into direct contact with other magnetic fields (e.g. per­manent magnets, magnetic clamps, electromagnets, magnetic stands)! This may cause
irreparable damage, which will compromise the measuring accuracy or even the function­ing.

5.2.2 Installation of the Sensor

The sensor is fixated on the cabin or on the car frame. The mounting position is basically determined by the
condition.

5.3 Description installation / Mounting of the Magnetic Tape

5.3.1 General Information

The technology has proven to be highly robust.LIMAX02 will work under the most adverse environmental condi­tions. Extreme temperatures, high moisture and excessive soiling will not alter the information coded onto the
tape nor will these conditions affect reading precision of the sensor. Even weak magnetic fields such as they are
generated by door magnets can be tolerated.

If some basic rules and guidelines are followed LIMAX02 systems require a minimum amount of installation and
maintenance effort while offering maximum lifetime.

One important issue to consider is the protection of the magnet tape against mechanical wear. The LIMAX02
tape consists of two components:

- The magnetic tape which actually carries the position information

- A protective steel tape which gives the mechanical properties

Installation and First Start-Up

- 15 -

NOTE!
The magnetic tape itself is not designed to withstand excessive mechanical wear. It is there­fore important to ensure that the system is installed such that the mechanical contact between
tape and sensor head is mainly between the steel tape and the polymer sensor guide. These
two materials have been specifically paired for this application.

5.3.2 Installation Concept

5.3.2.1 Basic Principle for the Mounting

Avoiding contact between the magnetic side and the sensor could be achieved with a perfectly perpendicular
installation of the band. Yet, in reality this is not practicable. It is therefore preferable to install the tape with a
horizontal offset from the sensor. During operation this method will result in a forced contact between the steel

side of the band and the polymer guide of the sensor which guarantees an optimal operation of the system.

5.3.3 Installation Procedure

1. Attach the top end of the tape in the shaft head. Ideally use an ELGO Mounting Kit. Check for correct

orientation of the tape. The arrows on the magnetic side must point in upward direction.

Figure 9: Correct orientation of the magnetic tape

2. The magnetic side of the tape must face the sensor body. In most situations this means that the steel side

points to the shaft wall.

3. Drive down the shaft with inspection speed and unroll the tape. The ELGO tape packaging system has

been specifically designed for this purpose. The tape can be unwound directly from the box without open­ing.

4. Attach the tension weight (about 7.5 kg) at the bottom end of the tape in the shaft. Secure the tape with a

sway guard. Pay attention to a proper vertical mounting of the tape.
If you use dowels to fix the tape in the shaft, tighten the spring such, that the according tractions results to
minimum 7.5 kg. When using the ELGO Mounting Kit RMS/RMS90 this is equivalent to a spring elonga­tion of about 90 mm.
Note that slightly higher tensile forces are never a problem, but avoid under-tensioning. In higher build­ings it may even be preferable to slightly increase the tension in order to prevent flapping of the tape dur­ing operation. However, if correctly installed tensile forces of more than 10 kg should never be necessary.

5. Drive the car to the middle of the shaft.

6. Attach the sensor to the car. The side with the cable outlet and the LED’s must face upward.

7. Adjust the sensor using the tape as a reference. First, align sensor and magnet band on their centerline.

8. Adjust now the distance between sensor and tape. Up to a travel height of 50 m we recommend an offset

of at least 15 mm. This will ensure steady contact between steel side of the band and the polymer guide
of the sensor. This level can be increased later, if it turns out that the band still rubbing with the magnetic
side on the sensor.
In higher installations this distance may be increased by the initial assembly up to 5 cm.

Pay attention to a perpendicular alignment of the sensor. Misalignment will lead to increased wear.

9. Pass the tape through the sensor. Loosen the splint-pin and release the polymer guide. Insert the tape and

re-attach the guide with the tape in its position.

10. Pay attention that the pad does not slip after removal of the polymer guide from the aluminum guide out

and drops down in the shaft.

11. Check for proper alignment of band vs. sensor. Any angular offset should be corrected.

12. IMPORTANT: Installation check!

Values for tape tension and offset between tape and sensor are guidelines based on experience. But in
any case, a proper check after installation is mandatory. It must absolutely be avoided that the magnetic
side constantly grinds on the sensor body during operation. Run an inspection trip along the complete
shaft. Observe the system and pay attention to the respective positions of band and sensor. You have
achieved an optimal installation if the steel side of the tape is constantly pressed slightly against the poly­mer guide of the sensor. At some points in the shaft also double-check on the bottom side of the sensor.
If the sensor is tilted it may look good on top but the tape can still grind along the bottom edge of the
sensor.

Figure 13: Assessment of the vertical alignment of the sensor

13. If the installation check reveals that the tape slides on magnetic side, start to increase the offset between

sensor and tape. Values of up to 5 cm are acceptable. If this measure does not solve the problem it is
very likely that the tape is not plumb in the shaft. This is easy to check for, provided your elevator control
allows for inspection trips without the absolute position signal: Just take the tape out of the sensor and
run an inspection trip along the shaft. Observe the distance between sensor and tape along the travel.
Misalignments will become obvious.
Also ensure that the tension on the tape is sufficient. A loosely tensioned tape will hinder proper guiding.

14. After completion of the installation clean the tape. Beginning at the top of the shaft drive down the com-

plete travel distance pulling the magnet tape through a dry cloth.
Be specifically alert if steel construction work is taking place in the shaft. Steel particles released by grind­ing, welding, or such work will adhere to the magnetic tape. Clean this debris off instantly.
Repeat the cleaning process before putting the elevator into service after complete installation.

6.2.4.1 Initial Operation

*) please connect shield only at control unit side!

After starting the CANopen device is in the Pre-operational Mode ( 6.2.6.2) and therefore doesn’t send any
position data. In order to achieve this, the device needs to be set into Operational Mode ( 6.2.6.1) and if
necessary the sending cycle of the position data has to be adjusted ( 6.2.4.4).

6.2.4.2 Normal Mode

6.2.4.3 Setting the Heartbeat Cycle Duration

A CANopen device sends the heartbeat cyclically. This message communicates the current Operating Mode to
the other bus sharing units.

1. Change into the Operational or Pre-operational Mode, if necessary

2. The following illustration shows the CAN-message, which should be transmitted to the CANopen device

and the following answer.

Disturbances, Maintenance, Cleaning

- 34 -

CAUTION!
The device, the connection line and the signal cable must not be installed next to sources of interference that emit
strong inductive or capacitive interference or strong electrostatic fields.

External perturbations can be avoided thorough suitable cable routing.

The screen of the signal output cable should only be connected to the following circuit on one side. The screens
should not be grounded on both sides. Signal cables always have to be routed separately from the load power line.
A safety distance of at least 0,5 m has to be kept from inductive and capacitive sources of interference such as con­tactors, relays, motors, switching power supplies, clocked controllers etc!

If interferences occur in spite of all the items stated above being observed, please proceed as follows:

1. Installation of RC-circuits via contactor coils of AC-contactors (e.g. 0,1 µF / 100 Ω)

2. Installation of recovery diodes via DC-inductors

3. Installation of RC-circuits via the different motor phases (in the terminal box of the motor)

4. Do not connect protective earth and ground

5. Connect a mains filter ahead of the external power pack

WARNING!
Danger of injury through non-conventional fault clearance!

Non-conventional fault clearance can lead to severe injuries and damage of property.

Therefore:

 Any work to clear the faults may only be performed by sufficiently qualified staff
 Arrange enough space before starting the works
 Make sure that the mounting area is clean and tidy. Loose components and tools are sources of accidents.

If components need to be replaced:

 Pay attention to a correct installation of the spare parts.
 Reinstall all the fixing elements properly
 Before turning on the device, ensure that all covers and safety equipment is installed correctly and functions

properly

7 Disturbances, Maintenance, Cleaning

This chapter describes possible causes for disturbances and measures for their removal. In case of increased disturbances, please follow the
measures for fault clearance in chapter  7.1.
In case of disturbances that cannot be eliminated by following the advice and the fault clearance measures given here, please contact the
manufacturer (see second page).

7.1 Fault Clearance

7.2 Re-start after Fault Clearance

After the fault clearance:

1. Reset the emergency stop mechanism if necessary

2. Reset the error report at the super-ordinate system if necessary.

3. Ensure that there are no persons in the danger area.

4. Follow the instructions from chapter  5.

Disturbances, Maintenance, Cleaning

- 35 -

WARNING!
Danger through non-conventional maintenance!

Non-conventional maintenance can lead to severe injuries and damage of property.

Therefore:
Maintenance works may only be completed by staff that has been authorized and trained by the operator.

WARNING!
The device can only be cleaned with a damp cloth, do not use aggressive cleanser!

7.3 Maintenance

The LIMAX02 shaft information system requires little maintenance. On the occasion of regular elevator inspection and maintenance do the
following:

 Optical inspection of proper alignment between sensor and band. Worn off material indicates possible alignment flaws. Check

for proper guiding of the band along the complete travel distance. Correct if necessary as described in the installation procedure
above.

 Optical inspection of the band. Check for abrasions or other mechanical damages. Small mechanical damages (scratches, dents,

or even small chips) do not interfere with the measuring performance at all.
However, a pre-damaged band is more exposed to mechanical stress and is prone to further wear.

 Check for proper tension of the band. If the mounting was via a flute, the tension can decrease over time. Readjust if necessary.
 Inspect the polymer guide for wear. Clean if dust and dirt have accumulated between polymer guide and sensor case. The poly-

mer guide is a wear part. Replace if necessary.

 Clean the band. Use a dry and clean cloth. Begin at the head of the hoistway drive down the complete travel distance pulling the

magnet band through a dry cloth.
