Essentials for a perfect fit.Schindler 5500Layout flexibilityThe Schindler 5500 is easily configured to meet the uniquespecifications and needs of your building. The entire systemcan be self-contained within the hoistway to speed installationand save valuable space.High-level performanceOur powerful, compact drives can meet greater buildingheights and deliver quiet performance with noticeablysmoother rides. Our trailblazing PORT Technology helpsmove more passengers in less time.Freedom of designFrom functional to sophisticated, pre-configured to custom– our design options give you the freedom to create stylishelevators that are the perfect complement to your building.Green mobilityThe Schindler 5500 helps lower your building’s carbonfootprint by utilizing Power Factor 1 regenerative drives,optimized motors and innovative traction media.Schindler 55003
Layout flexibilityConfigure a mobility solution with perfectly fitting cars and a smooth flow of peopleand goods. Machine room-less (MRL) or machine room above (MRA) options areavailable to make your building work your way.The elevator that conforms to yourspecificationsup to 10’ (3048mm)More options mean a better fitYou determine the dimensions that best suit your ideasand the requirements of your building.The Schindler 5500 will fit because:– Standard car sizes are adaptable in width anddepth with a maximum of 4” (100mm) aroundISO standards.– Variable car heights available in 8’, 9’, 10’.– A single modular system is able to coverdifferent market applications such as residential,commercial and public transportationStandard and extended door rangeThe large range of door widths and heightsadapts to code and building requirements.

Building integration made easyMRL and MRA layoutDepending on the dimensions of the hoistway, capacity andtravel height requirements, there are MRL andMRA solutions for the Schindler 5500. MRL design is available fornearly all configurations. In addition, side or rear counterweightsprovide more options for perfect space utilization, maximizedrentable space and lower building costs.Why side counterweights?SideRearMachine loads supported by the hoistway,not the building –Contractor not required to provide pocketsof machine support –Lower hoistway construction costs –Up to 20% faster installation with lesscoordination required with the contractor –Machine can be raised through the hoistwaywithout a crane –Building can be topped off prior to elevatorinstallation –Elevator machine loadstransferred to the buildingMRL layout withside counterweightsMRL layout withrear counterweightsSmart design saves spaceCompact and powerful regenerative drives can bemounted at the top of the hoistway, eliminating amachine room and adding more usable space tothe building.The space-efficient controller fits neatly into the top floorof the elevator door jamb, eliminating the need for evena small control closet in most applications.Schindler 55005

Powerful performance when paired withSchindler's PORT TechnologyBrainpower for your buildingOur optional Schindler PORT Technology is the higheststandard for optimizing traffic flow through a buildingwith flexible personalization and access capabilities.When compared to a conventional traffic managementsystem, Schindler PORT Technology offers unmatchedadvantages.The brain behind PORT Technology is a powerfulsoftware system that uses information to guide andtransport people quickly and safely to their individualdestinations. Passengers communicate through a simpleyet elegant interface device called the PORT.Without PORT TechnologyWith PORT TechnologyThe PORT system calculates the optimum route to anydestination within the building, assigns the best elevatorto handle that call and then brings each passenger to theirdestination faster with fewer intermediate stops. Enabledwith radio frequency identification (RFID) technology, thePORT system can identify individual travelers to customizetheir trip and provide personal service.The system is also able to ‘learn’ how a building’soccupants move, anticipating passenger needs to optimizeflow and manage resources more effectively. It’s theperfect choice for smarter, greener buildings.The PORT TerminalThis new range of hall calldestination terminals deliversbrainpower to your building.Various PORT Terminal optionsare available to optimize trafficflows. For detailed information,visit www.theporttechnology.com.PORT Terminal with card readerSchindler’s PORT Technology not only improves total time todestination by as much as 50%, it also reduces wait times by upto 50%. Improvement is realized in all traffic modes, includingup peak, two way and down peak.Schindler 55007
