RainstormWarning

—Elevator flooding danger do not risk riding—

Recently, rainstorms have occurred frequently in some parts of China, and the drainage system of cities is facing a severe test. In the face of continuous heavy rainfall, take defensive measures and pay attention to travel safety, which has become the focus of attention! At the same time,"The Elevator"As a vertical transportation tool of urban high-rise buildings, its safety has also attracted much attention.

 

In life, many small partners will be puzzled:

The elevator is a metal structure, is also afraid of water?

Is it dangerous to take the ladder in thunder and thunderstorm weather?

 

01Heavy rain may have the following effects on the elevator

 

1Risk of water inflow in elevator machine room

Rainstorm may cause water in the elevator machine room, especially when the wind and rain prevention measures of the machine room are not in place, such as ceiling leakage, wall seepage, etc.

 

 

2Elevator shaft water into the hidden danger

Rainwater may flow into the hoistway from the landing sill, resulting in water accumulation in the pit and car. If the bottom pit waterproofing and drainage system fails, and the underground garage is flooded with low-lying water, a large amount of water may be generated in the bottom pit.

 

 

All of the above lead to frequent elevator failures.

Potential risks with passengers in danger ~ ~

 

02Safety Hazards of Using Immersed Elevator

 

1Personnel electric shock hazard

Since the voltage of lighting and control circuits in the elevator car is mostly higher than the safety voltage, and the elevator car components are mostly metal structures, it is easy to cause grounding faults and other conditions under the conditions of water accumulation in the bottom pit and serious shaft leakage. At this time, the car body may be charged, and the danger of electric shock may easily occur when passengers touch the metal floor selection button or lean against the elevator car.

2Risk of personnel trapped in ladder

For the running elevator, if the water suddenly enters, it is likely to directly cause damage to the elevator board, button damage, etc. Usually from the elevator call board, display board, car board, and some also include the car top control board, to the main control board the entire control system is damaged, plus the door machine controller or door machine inverter, door motor and other damage, resulting in the elevator emergency stop. This emergency stop is an abnormal stop, and the car stops at a non-exit position, not in a flat area, which in turn causes people to be trapped.

3Failure of safety components

Serious water accumulation in the pit will lead to short circuit of safety circuit, corrosion of metal parts, accelerated aging of polyurethane buffer, loss of original performance of hydraulic buffer, etc., thus causing some safety protection functions of elevators to fail.

 

Under the influence of continuous heavy rain and severe weather,

In addition to routine maintenance and preventive work,

It is important to raise public awareness of the safety of elevator use.

 

Avoid using the elevator as much as possible during heavy rainfall. If there are signs of water accumulation around the elevator, or when it is known that the elevator may be flooded due to heavy rain, be sure to choose paths such as stairs, and do not try to use the elevator.

Continuously pay attention to the announcement of the community or building, and pay special attention to the updated information about the elevator operation status and the maintenance plan and maintenance situation. At the same time, follow the guidelines and recommendations of management personnel, and jointly maintain the normal operation of the elevator to ensure safety.

 

Special tips!

 

If you encounter emergency situations such as elevator leakage or being trapped while taking the elevator, you should keep calm and immediately use the alarm device in the elevator or dial the elevator emergency rescue line such as "96333" for help.

Elevator users should strengthen personnel on duty and inspection, strengthen the prevention awareness that rainstorm may soak the elevator, and respond quickly and report for maintenance in case of abnormality.
