| The Schindler MT Series is an integrated group of
pushbutton and keyed switch components. Manufactured to meet Schindler's high standards
for quality and flexibility in elevator design, MT pushbuttons are molded from a
high-impact plastic, durable enough to withstand heavy use for years. And MT pushbuttons
use LED illumination for reliability and long component life. Available
in brushed or mirror stainless steel or bronze, fixtures featuring the MT-style
pushbuttons are designed to complement and enhance even the most contemporary building
designs. The MT Series fixtures meet AD requirements for people with disabilities.
Technical Description
The MT pushbutton element housing has an exposed rectangular area
with rounded corners. The right side of the exposed face contains a mechanically activated
white plastic pushbutton. The button is 7/8" wide by 15/16" high with rounded
corners. The surface of the button is comfortably concave and projects 1/8" from the
housing. Only a slight pressure on the button is required to initiate a call. The button
does not illuminate.
A call registration bar, approximately 3/4" long by 1/8"
wide, is located above and centered over the pushbutton. A red LED display located behind
the bar illuminates when a call is registered and remains lit until the call has been
answered. Manufactured of translucent plastic and mounted flush with the surface of the
housing, the bar is designed to be unobtrusive when inactive.
Immediately adjacent and to the left of the pushbutton, the housing
is recessed for insertion of tactile plates. The tactile plates are 1" wide by 1
3/16" high with rounded corners and are finished in a durable matte black enamel. The
tactile plates contain raised Braille codes and numerical equivalents or other
identification, as selected.
Car Station Specifications
The MT Series Car Station has a front return full swing or
mini-swing design to provide a contemporary appearance. The fixture is easily accessible
for servicing by removing the tamper- resistant screws and swinging out the front return
panel. |
