Eco-Friendly MRL Elevators:
Designed to Save Energy and Space

In today’s fast-paced urban world, the demand for vertical mobility is growing rapidly. High-rise apartments, commercial complexes, hospitals, and shopping malls are increasingly relying on elevators to ensure smooth movement of people and goods. However, with this demand comes the pressing need for energy efficiency and space optimization. This is where Machine Room-Less(MRL)elevators stand out as a game-changing innovation. At Pratheek Elevators, we are committed to providing eco-friendly MRL elevators that combine cutting-edge technology, sustainability, and practicality to meet modern infrastructure needs.

What Are MRL Elevators?

Machine Room-Less (MRL) elevators are advanced elevator systems that eliminate the need for a separate machine room. Traditionally, elevators required a dedicated space above or adjacent to the shaft to house machinery, motors, and control panels. With MRL technology, the motor and control equipment are compactly installed within the hoistway itself, typically above the elevator shaft.

This design not only saves valuable building space but also enhances efficiency. For builders and property owners, it means reduced construction costs, simplified installation, and more room for functional use. For users, it translates into smoother rides, faster response times, and a more eco-conscious solution.

Why Choose Eco-Friendly Elevators?

The global shift towards sustainable living has encouraged industries to innovate with green technologies. Elevators, which consume a significant amount of energy daily, are no exception. Traditional elevators rely on older mechanisms such as geared traction systems, which are less energy-efficient and require constant lubrication and maintenance.

By contrast, eco-friendly elevators, particularly MRL models, offer multiple advantages:

• Reduced Power Consumption – Modern gearless traction systems with permanent magnet motors consume up to 30–40% less energy compared to conventional elevators.
• Lower Carbon Footprint – Energy efficiency directly reduces greenhouse gas emissions.
• Space Optimization – Eliminating the machine room provides architects and builders with more usable floor space.
• Quiet and Comfortable Rides – MRL elevators operate smoothly with minimal noise and vibration.
• Low Maintenance Costs – Fewer moving parts mean reduced wear and tear.
• At Pratheek Elevators, we design our MRL elevators with sustainability in mind, ensuring every installation contributes to a greener future.

Key Features of Pratheek Elevators’ Eco-Friendly MRL Elevators

• Gearless Technology Our MRL elevators use gearless traction machines that are compact, lightweight, and energy-efficient. This technology reduces energy consumption while improving operational performance.
• Regenerative Drives Many of our elevators are equipped with regenerative drive systems that convert excess energy (generated during braking or descending with light loads) into reusable electricity, which can be fed back into the building’s power grid.
• Energy-Efficient Lighting We use LED lighting systems with automatic shut-off features inside the cabins, further reducing energy usage.
• Space-Saving Design With no machine room required, our MRL elevators are ideal for both new constructions and modernization projects, providing more design flexibility for architects.
• Eco-Friendly Materials Wherever possible, we incorporate recyclable materials in our cabin interiors and components, ensuring minimal environmental impact.
• Smart Control Systems Our elevators feature intelligent microprocessor-based controllers that optimize power usage, ensuring smooth acceleration and deceleration.

Space-Saving Benefits for Modern Buildings

Space is a premium in modern cities, where every square foot counts. MRL elevators maximize usable space by eliminating the need for a separate machine room. This allows:

• Residential Apartments to have more living space or additional amenities.
• Commercial Complexesto utilize space more efficiently, whether for offices, storage, or common areas.
• Hospitals and Educational Institutions to prioritize essential facilities without compromising on vertical mobility.

By choosing Pratheek Elevators’ MRL solutions, property owners not only save space but also increase the overall functionality and value of their buildings.

Energy Savings That Make a Difference

Did you know that elevators account for up to 5-10% of a building’s total energy consumption? By adopting eco-friendly MRL elevators, this figure can be drastically reduced.

• Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motors (PMSM) used in our elevators consume significantly less power.
• Standby Modeensures that when the elevator is not in use, non-essential systems automatically switch off to save energy.
• Optimized Traffic Flow Management reduces unnecessary trips, further minimizing energy waste.

For large-scale commercial or residential buildings with multiple elevators, the savings over time are substantial, directly impacting electricity bills and operational costs.

Applications of Eco-Friendly MRL Elevators

At Pratheek Elevators, our MRL elevators are versatile and suitable for various sectors, including:
