All measurements are made with an empty car. Since lifts do not run empty all the time under<br />

real conditions, adjustments via a typical load collective 2 were done. The average motor load<br />

factor C aml , as shown in Table 5‐2 is used for this calculation.<br />

The average motor load factor C aml is the statistical average in which the motor or drive system<br />

has to operate. It is dimensionless, since it is the ratio between average motor load and<br />

maximum possible motor load.<br />

Traction lifts 50% balanced no regenerative drive systems 0,35<br />

Traction lifts 50% balanced with gearless regenerative drive systems 0,35<br />

Hydraulic lifts without counterweight 0,30<br />

2 The high share of empty travelling is explainable by the fact that a lift often travels empty to destination it is called<br />

to.<br />
