Beware of elevator waterproofing during typhoon season

The elevator should also be waterproof during typhoon season. As an electrical equipment, elevator is very afraid of water. In typhoon season and daily life, people should be careful that all kinds of reasons lead to the elevator water, so as not to cause faults.

The high temperature and heavy rain caused the elevator failure rate to increase

On the evening of July 5, a malfunction occurred in the elevator in fangting vegetable garden. At the same time, the number of elevator failures caused by human factors such as household garbage and renovation garbage Carmen remained high, reaching 174 cases, accounting for 21.1% of that month's sleepiness rate.

The whole elevator is afraid of water.

Special equipment experts said that the elevator is a mechatronics product, its operation is controlled by electrical control system, it can be said that the whole body of the elevator is "afraid of water". So where is the elevator vulnerable to water, and what can the water cause? If the elevator room is flooded, the water will spread to the control cabinet in the room, which is prone to control system failure, circuit short circuit, safety circuit failure and other hazards. If the elevator shaft is flooded, it will cause the risk of door lock corrosion, short circuit of electrical safety device, decline of insulation, etc., water flowing into the bottom hole along the shaft wall will cause water accumulation in the bottom hole. As many electrical safety devices are installed in the bottom pit, once water accumulation occurs, it is easy to cause short circuit of the electrical safety device and decline of insulation performance, thus causing electric shock hazard to elevator maintenance personnel.

It is a typhoon season, and special care should be taken to prevent the elevator from drowning in such weather. Relevant departments shall strengthen the emergency duty of elevators, implement various preventive and maintenance measures, and minimize the impact of severe typhoon and heavy rainfall on people's ladder riding. People are reminded to avoid skidding when riding stairs in typhoon or rainstorm. If you are trapped in the elevator, please call for help immediately.
