GS8000 - Enhancements

Energy Saving System

Variable frequency operation offers the latest inverter technology, drastically reducing power consumption. With this system, the escalator runs at a very low speed under the no load condition and resumes normal speed operations when approaching passengers are detected.

Automatic Start/Stop Operation

The sensors located near the landings detect approaching passengers and automatically starts operations. The operation then stops after all the passengers have exited.

Comb Lights

Lights are mounted on the skirt guards at the upper and lower landings, illuminating the steps for easier boarding and exiting.

Demarcation Lights

To help passengers easily identify the boundary line between steps, green fluorescent lights are mounted under the escalator steps. These are located at the upper and lower landings.

Urethane Handrail

Fujitec's newly developed handrail drive system is made from Urethane and minimizes the handrail friction.  This material is easily cleaned to maintain a good appearance.
