Hydra - Hydraulic Elevator
Strong, smooth and built for tight spaces — hydraulic power for low-rise, heavy goods, and shallow-pit projects.
Strong, smooth and built for tight spaces — hydraulic power for low-rise, heavy goods, and shallow-pit projects.
Brisk Hydra elevators use hydraulic power to lift the car, making them ideal for low-rise buildings, homes and heavy goods where a shallow pit or minimal overhead is needed.
Hydraulic power with a proportional valve — engineered for smooth, jerk-free travel.
An electric motor drives a pump that pushes hydraulic oil into a cylinder. The rising piston (ram) lifts the car directly or through a 2:1 roped arrangement. To descend, a control valve releases oil back to the tank and gravity lowers the car smoothly. The compact power unit can sit in a small cabinet up to several metres from the shaft, on any floor.
Works in existing and heritage buildings with limited height.
Saves shaft space and suits load-bearing structures that cannot take rooftop loads.
Place it under a staircase, in a utility room or next to the shaft.
Well suited to goods, car and hospital bed lifts.
Proportional valve control gives jerk-free travel and accurate levelling.
During a power failure, the car descends to the lowest floor via battery or manual valve and doors open.
Fewer moving parts and a simple, robust drive.
Stainless steel, glass, panoramic or laminate finishes; manual or automatic doors.
Locks the car if a hydraulic line fails.
Pressure relief valve and oil temperature sensor.
Overload sensor with buzzer.
Door interlocks and light curtain (automatic doors).
Emergency alarm, intercom and car emergency light.
Pit stop switch and buffers.
Designed to IS 14665 and EN 81-20/50 guidelines.
Villas and private homes, low-rise commercial buildings (up to 5–6 floors), warehouses and factories, car parking, hospitals and retrofits in older buildings.
