Notes : Refer any special conditions to your local sales representative.

(i) Maximum allowable inside car area in square feet ASME A17.1 Rule 207.1 and CAN/CSA-B44 3.9.

(ii) 2SSO door system only.

(iii) Dimensions K (under beam), N (clear overhead), and OH (total overhead) are based on 8'-0" (2438mm) high cab and 7'-0" (2134mm high opening. For heights larger than these, increase K, N and OH accordingly.

(iv) Dimension OH (total overhead) is based on 15" (381mm) machine beam and 4" (102mm) thick machine room slab.

(v) Dimension P (pit depth) and M (car overtravel) are based on full stroke buffers and Whisperflex compensation.

(vi) Reactions at E, F, G and H are based on ASME A17.1 Rule 105.2 and CAN/CSA-B44 2.6. Weight of slab not included. Reactions based on maximum cab weight allowed and maximum travel. Final reactions determined by elevator shop drawings.

(vii) Dimension C must increase 5" (127mm) when cwt. safety is required. Dimension P or OH (not both), N and M may increase when cwt. safety is used depending on travel.

(viii) Dimensions shown are for single cars. Machine room dimensions for multicar banks will vary.

(ix) Adequate steel or concrete beam or concrete wall supports are required for rail mounting brackets based on elevator shop drawing loadings at each floor per ASME A17.1 Rule 200.9 and CAN/CSA-B44 3.2.5.2. Mounting and interface between building support and rail bracket to be in agreement between customer and elevator contractor.

(x) Beams around hoistway to support rail brackets to be on same vertical centerline, if possible, and to be located no further than 24" (610mm) from centerline of steel beam or edge of concrete beam or concrete wall to platform for non-seismic applications.

(xi) Minimum pit depth (P) for applications in Province of Ontario is 5'-7" (1702mm).

(xii) For front and rear applications, the minimum floor height is 12" (305mm).

(xiii) For seismic area increase C by 3" (76mm).
