Technology that’sdesigned to work for you.Special power requirements. Subcontractor’s schedules. Frequent power outages.There are many things to consider when installing and operating an elevator in yourresidential building, whether it’s new construction or a retro�t. The innovative technologyof the Gen2 Switch elevator makes it an easy decision.
Safe when power fails:Gen2 Switch has a battery, so it works even when the power doesn’t.
More sustainable:Regenerated energy goes right back into the battery,ready for the next run.
Simple to install:All you need is a regular power outlet, no special three-phase power.

The reason we remember Elisha Otis isn’t for inventing an elevator. No, his legacy isbuilt on making the elevator safe. The next generation of that legacy is now available:the Gen2 Switch system, an elevator powered by a battery.
A battery means convenience without fear. No being stranded or trapped if the powergoes out. No facing �ight after �ight of stairs with a giant load of groceries. And if youhave a disability, you’ll rest easy knowing you can always access your home.
Sim
pler
Sometimes it’s not the space for an elevator that’s the challenge. It’s all the things that go with the elevator. A special power supply. A machine room. Coordinating between trades.
The Gen2 Switch system does away with all of that – all you have to do is plug it in.No three-phase power, no machine room, and no control room. The entire systeminstalls rapidly, then plugs in.
In many buildings, a spare
stairwell can be easily
converted to a
Gen2 Switch elevator.

The Gen2 Switch system is the culmination of decades of elevator ef�ciency improvements. Our most ef�cient elevator to date, it is 81% more ef�cient than a conventional elevator.
From the gearless machine to the LED lights and standby systems, each part in theGen2 Switch is designed for maximum ef�ciency. And its battery technology both captures energy from its regenerative drive, and makes the Gen2 Switch renewable-power ready.

Streamlined installation
No need to add three-phase powerjust for your elevator, and no needto coordinate between elevator and electrical power installation contractors.
No machine roomor control room
The Gen2 Switch system’s patented �at belts and compact machine take up less space. Even the controller is compact enough to mount in the hoistway. For you, that means no machine room and more rentable building space.
A ReGen® drive to capture waste energy and return it to the battery.
An ultra-ef�cient compact,gearless machine.
LED lighting and an advanced sleep mode.
A patented coated-steel belt that needs no lubrication.

Plugs right in
Gen2 Switch uses single-phase power so you don’t have to install three-phase power – or wait for its installation – just for an elevator.
Perfect pace
Gen2 Switch has a variable speed functionality, to limit energy consumption withoutlimiting passenger comfort. Depending on the car load, travel direction and travel length,
speed varies from 0.63m/s to 1m/s.
Renewable-ready
Gen2 Switch’s battery system lets it takeadvantage of �uctuating energy supplies suchas wind and solar power. And the battery, madeof 97% recycled materials, is itself 90% recyclable.
If the power fails, Gen2 Switch elevatorstransition smoothly from the grid to battery
power. Passengers won’t realized the poweris out until they reach their destination.
No interruptions

Less power means less power
Since it uses a level of installed power that’s 18 times lessthan a standard gearless elevator, Gen2 Switch uses lesspower overall, leading to lower bills.
