The document provides detailed dimensions and performance characteristics for various models, such as ADS-26 and ADS-50 series, including stroke length, mass capacity, nominal speed, and weight.
Operating Principle: The ADS shock absorbers for elevators are closed hydraulic components that function based on oil displacement. When the piston rod is pushed into the cylinder, the piston displaces the oil through progressively closing holes, reducing the speed of the piston rod proportionally to the stroke. The displaced oil volume is compensated by a nitrogen accumulator above the oil, which increases pressure during the stroke. Upon release, the piston rod is returned by the nitrogen pressure or a return spring. A plastic stop cap reduces impact noise. The ADS-50 shock absorbers are pre-filled with nitrogen at 5 bar. An oil sight glass allows for easy visual oil level checks. A limit switch according to DIN-EN 50047 monitors the extended piston rod, activated by the protection tube (ADS-SR) or contact pin (ADS-ST).
Benefits: The ADS shock absorbers are suitable for passenger and load elevators, with a temperature range of -20°C to +80°C.
