Modernization
Whether your freight elevator project requires a complete modification, or only updates to doors, gates and controls, EMS can create a customized solution for you.
Control Upgrade
To achieve smoother operation of doors, EMS has created the eclips/c (control) package to upgrade your existing freight elevator. With just one system, you can control the front and rear same-level openings. The eclips controller constantly learns and adjusts for smoother, quieter operation.
Full Motorized Upgrade
To take the eclips line a step further, you can upgrade to the eclips/p (power) package and achieve powerful yet quiet operation every time. This package features adjustable gate closing speed for improved safety, and eliminates cam bounce and the need for dampening devices. There are no limit switches to adjust, and downtime and costly maintenance calls are a thing of the past.
Will Eclips Work For me?
Complete Replacement
Because a complete replacement shares similarities to new construction projects, EMS requires surveys on the space to verify the dimensions on existing drawings.Request a quote
eclips/c
- A position sensor is mounted to each opening's door track and car gate
- Operator and sensor wire is run from each sensor to machine room terminal blocks in the door controller
The eclips door controller is wired into the existing elevator controller and the system is ready for setup
eclips/p
- A position sensor is mounted to each opening's door track and car gate
- Operator and sensor wire is run from each sensor to machine room terminal blocks in the door controller
- New door operators and chains with pickups are installed at each landing with new gate

Door Control System
The EMS eclips closed loop door controller replaces the old door controller and interfaces directly with the existing elevator controller, or with any new elevator controller, being planned as part of a larger modernization. The closed loop door and gate position sensors provide the exact location of the door and gate to the eclips door controller.
There is no need to retain the old door or gate mechanical limit switches for motor control. That means that there are no longer any maintenance-intensive limits to adjust or re-align. One controller with point-to-point wiring making for EASY INSTALLATION from upgrade packages to new installations.
