Elevator Cable and Solutions

The demand for elevator communications is increasing, leading to a need for high-resolution video surveillance, telephony, control signals, audio systems, advertising video boards, and more. Consequently, there are now various options available for connecting these IP devices to a traveling cable. 

You can achieve Ethernet connectivity in the elevator cabin using converters or interface modules. Available solutions include fiber-optic cables, specially designed twisted-pair cables comparable to Cat 5e, and two-wire Ethernet converters. To identify the right traveling cable solution that fits your specific LAN and Ethernet requirements, consider Prysmian. 

Furthermore, Prysmian's limit switches are used in various elevator and escalator applications. These switches are manufactured to meet a broad range of international quality and safety standards. They are highly resistant to dust and moisture (IP65 rated) and come in various actuator configurations.

Prysmian, through its legacy brands Draka and EHC, has over 60 years of experience in manufacturing elevator traveling cables and more than 35 years of expertise in supplying wireway systems. We are proud to now offer extended warranties that demonstrate our commitment to quality and customer satisfaction.

Our Super-Flex® round traveling cables, Super-Duct® hoistway cables, Whisper-Flex® compensation cables, Steadi-Flex® compensation cables, and metal wireway are now backed by a limited lifetime warranty, providing you with peace of mind. 

Please note that this warranty does not apply to non-standard and rope lay cable constructions.

Our hot-dipped, mill-galvanized wireway products are proudly manufactured in the United States and come with a lifetime warranty, ensuring they will be protected for years to come. Additionally, we offer a comprehensive range of electrical accessories—including fittings, connectors, couplings, boxes, and more. All of these products are crafted to the highest quality standards, making them a perfect match for our wireways.

Prysmian provides a wide range of wire ropes available in various types, grades, diameters, and load capacities. Each combination offers unique advantages, enabling you to choose the perfect wire rope for your specific application. As a leading supplier of wire rope in North America, Prysmian distributes the well-known Gustav Wolf and IPH brands

 

In addition to wire ropes, Prysmian also offers all the necessary accessories for installation and use. Our selection includes wedge sockets, lubricators, tensioners, and calipers, along with advanced load-weighing devices that ensure precision and accuracy in your work. 

 

Our Whisper-Flex® and Steadi-Flex® compensation cables come with a limited lifetime warranty, providing you with confidence and peace of mind with your purchase. These cables are engineered for smooth, economical, and quiet compensation, ensuring reliable performance over the long term.

We offer a wide range of products, including LED cab lighting, inspection stations, stop switches, pendant stations, top-of-car safety rails, hoistway safety systems, safety barricades, grips and signage, governors, door gibs, alarms, ventilators, exhaust fans, and more. With us, you can trust that all your requirements will be met, ensuring both the safety and efficiency of your elevators.

Prysmian's Connectorization Services can greatly reduce both installation time and costs. Based on your specifications, hoistway and traveling cables can be transformed into plug-and-play wiring harnesses equipped with modular connectors that easily snap into place in the field. 

Connectorization ensures that cables and harnesses are installed quickly, easily, and accurately. The color-coded connectors help with positive circuit identification. All connectorized cable products undergo 100% post-fabrication testing to guarantee complete customer satisfaction. 

For optimal results, please provide an engineering drawing of the connectorized cable or harness, along with a sample of the harness if possible. You will receive a quote and an estimated lead time, and a finished sample can be provided for your inspection upon request.

Prysmian provides a convenient and cost-effective service that includes pairing our cables with electrical and mechanical components, such as hand tools, upon request. These items are then packaged into complete installation kits. 

Cables are cut to the specified length, and small components are placed in sealed plastic bags to prevent loss. This guarantees that all necessary cables and components for a safe and complete installation arrive on-site according to your schedule.
