Important Notes
- Carrying capacity follows the selected standard: IS 14665 uses 68 kg/person, EN 81-20 uses 75 kg/person, ASME A17.1 rates by inside net platform area.
- For a given capacity the cabin size is fixed; pit depth and overhead increase with rated speed.
- Dimensions assume centre-opening power doors with counterweight at rear; side-opening may differ.
- The 24-person IS row is extrapolated beyond IS 14665 Table 1; confirm with the technical team.
These dimensions are indicative, industry-standard reference values intended for early-stage planning only. Actual requirements vary by model, drive system, and door configuration. Please confirm final specifications with our technical team before construction.
