Regen Drive
Enhanced Elevator Energy Recovery System
Contact Our TeamAre you looking to protect the environment?
Are you fed up with increasing energy costs?
THE REGENMASTER recovers and stores the energy generated by the elevator which is then automatically returned during the next consumption trip or used to support the VF drive’s standby.
SUITABLE FOR NEW OR EXISTING ELEVATORS
Simple installation, just a two-wire connection to any VF drive. Completely independent from manufacturer, no interference with existing electronics.
SAVE ENERGY : SAVING UP TO 70%
Every elevator requires electricity, however sigificant saving can be made via energy recovery. Consumption and costs with both decrease.

The energy generated by an elevator with a traditional regenerative drive is returned to the grid however the RegenMaster system actually stores that energy and returns it to the elevator itself.
A traditional regenerative solution in an elevator with little traffic can even make the elevator consume more energy being regenerative than not being regenerative, this does not happen with RegenMaster.

When the elevator car goes down loaded, it weighs more than the counterweight so the car goes down by the effect of gravity and the elevator motor acts as a brake, generating energy. This energy dissipates in the form of waste heat via the brake resistors.
With RegenMaster, the energy generated by lowering the loaded elevator car is captured, stored and reused automatically by the elevator to reduce overall consumption and electric bills. RegenMaster is capable of storing this energy to return it to the same elevator thus reducing the consumption in the next trip or, if there is no immediate trip, supplying the standby energy of the VF drive until the energy stored
