Overview
Full manoeuvre controller for gearless traction lifts — houses the mainboard, VVVF inverter, battery backup and safety, ready to install.
Movilift's gearless VVVF controller is a complete, pre-engineered cabinet for traction lifts driven by a gearless motor. Built around the
BR100BR200BR400mainboard and a matched VVVF inverter, it delivers smooth, energy-efficient rides with precise closed-loop positioning. Available with a machine room (MR-GP / MR-GT) or fully machine-room-less (MRL-GT) to suit any shaft, it integrates a battery backup and charger, a stabilized 12/24 V signal supply (PON24S) and a protection board with fuses and rectifiers (POTMOVI).
The optional ARD emergency system brings the car to the nearest floor and re-opens the doors on power loss.
Options include factory pre-wiring (BR-SYSTEM), voice announcer (nVOICE), door pre-opening and GPRS/PSTN remote control (MOVICONTROL).
