Elevators #6434, #9624 & Elevator #7255 Repairs - Health
Sciences Library and Morehead Planetarium and Science Center
Addition
This project will address elevator machine deficiencies and
safety concerns for three campus elevators.
-Elevators #6434 and #9624, located in the Health Sciences
Library, are frequently utilized by students and staff.
These elevators are electric traction type units that were
installed in 1980. These elevators will be fully modernized,
including rebuilding the cabs of these two units and
replacing the analog logic controls with digital systems.
The drive gear will also be updated to be compatible with
the new controls system.
- Elevator #7255, located in the Morehead Planetarium and
Science Center Addition, was installed in 1973. It has a
single-bottom jack that will be replaced with a dual wall
hydraulic cylinder to address safety concerns. This unit
also will require minor repairs to the cab and controls.
Options for full modernization of this unit will also be
investigated. | |
