The tables on this page are taken from the factory catalogue. Each row gives the car, the clear door opening and the smallest shaft that this car fits into together with its counterweight or hydraulic cylinder. Dimensions are in millimetres, width first, depth second. Shaft dimensions are clear internal ones: width between the side walls, depth from the front wall to the rear wall.
MRL-G UX
A gearless machine-room-less lift with 2:1 roping and a side counterweight; the doors are Terra two-panel side-opening doors. It runs at 1 m/s, travels up to 30 m and has up to 12 stops. The factory says that in this series it redesigned thirteen components and installation methods to give more working room in the pit and on the car roof.

MRL G Starter
A series for larger loads and higher speeds: up to 1600 kg, 0.63-1.6 m/s, travel up to 45 m, up to 16 stops. Up to 750 kg the shaft is almost the same as for the UX; beyond that the pit and headroom grow. The deep 1100 × 2100 mm car takes a stretcher, and the wide 2000 × 1400 mm car lets a wheelchair turn around.

MRL G LPH, MRL L LPH and MRL UX SLH
Three series for existing buildings. How they differ and when each one is used is described on the page about a shallow pit and low headroom; here we give dimensions only. The G LPH and L LPH run at 1 m/s and have Terra doors; the SLH is made for 450 and 630 kg.

For a 630 kg MRL UX SLH with Cronus doors the shaft depth is 1780 mm.
MR: lifts with a machine room
There are two lines. With a geared Sassi traction machine: 300-2000 kg, travel up to 45 m, up to 16 stops. With a gearless traction machine: 300-1600 kg, up to 30 m, up to 12 stops. The speed in both is 0.63-1.6 m/s. The counterweight is placed opposite the doors, at the side or at the rear side, and this determines the shape of the shaft. The table shows the geared version with a side counterweight.
| Persons / load, kg | Car, mm | Doors, mm | Shaft, mm | Pit, mm | Headroom, mm |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 4 / 300 | 900 × 1000 | 700 | 1500 × 1400 | 600 | 2950 |
| 6 / 450 | 1000 × 1300 | 800 | 1600 × 1680 | 600 | 2950 |
| 8 / 630 | 1100 × 1400 | 900 | 1670 × 1780 | 650 | 3100 |
| 13 / 1000 | 1400 × 1600 | 900 | 2000 × 2000 | 650 | 3100 |
| 13 / 1000 | 1100 × 2100 | 900 | 1700 × 2500 | 650 | 3100 |
| 17 / 1275 | 1400 × 2000 | 1100 | 2100 × 2400 | 1100 | 3450 |
| 21 / 1600 | 1400 × 2400 | 1100 | 2250 × 2800 | 1100 | 3450 |
| 26 / 2000 | 1600 × 2600 | 1200 | 2500 × 3000 | 1100 | 3450 |
The doors on these lifts are Cronus. Under the MR tables the factory repeats the same note as for the cantilever series: the smallest pit and the smallest headroom cannot be had together. With a gearless traction machine and a side counterweight, a 630 kg car needs a 1700 × 1780 mm shaft, a pit from 600 mm and headroom from 3000 mm.
Hydraulic lifts
The factory offers hydraulic lifts for buildings of up to eight floors: 180-1600 kg, 0.2-0.8 m/s, travel up to 21 m. The hydraulic cylinder stands beside the car and there is no counterweight, so the shaft is narrower than for a traction lift. The valve is either the electronic self-adjusting Bucher iValve or the adjustable Blain EV100.
| Persons / load, kg | Car, mm | Doors, mm | Shaft, mm | Pit, mm | Headroom, mm |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 4 / 300 | 900 × 1000 | 700 | 1330 × 1330 | 350 | 2600 |
| 6 / 450 | 1000 × 1300 | 800 | 1450 × 1630 | 350 | 2600 |
| 8 / 630 | 1100 × 1400 | 900 | 1580 × 1730 | 350 | 2600 |
| 13 / 1000 | 1400 × 1600 | 900 | 1950 × 1920 | 450 | 2650 |
| 13 / 1000 | 1100 × 2100 | 900 | 1650 × 2450 | 450 | 2650 |
| 17 / 1275 | 1400 × 2000 | 1100 | 2000 × 2500 | 1100 | 3350 |
| 20 / 1500 | 1600 × 2000 | 1200 | 2250 × 2500 | 1200 | 3350 |
| 21 / 1600 | 1400 × 2400 | 1200 | 2300 × 2850 | 1200 | 3350 |
| 21 / 1600 | 1600 × 2100 | 1200 | 2300 × 2550 | 1200 | 3350 |
These are the dimensions with side-opening doors. With BUS folding car doors the shaft is 70-100 mm shallower and the headroom starts at 2480 mm: for 630 kg the shaft comes to 1580 × 1630 mm.
Habitat, freight platform, vehicle lift
The 300 kg Habitat home lift has 800 × 900, 900 × 1000 and 1000 × 1000 mm cars in shafts from 1200 × 1150 to 1400 × 1250 mm. For 400 kg the cars are 1000 × 1300, 1000 × 1400 and 1100 × 1200 mm, and the shafts 1420 × 1550, 1420 × 1650 and 1520 × 1450 mm. The car comes without doors, with a light curtain in the entrance, or with BUS M2 folding doors.
The 3500 kg vehicle lift: a 2400 × 5200 mm car, a 3400 × 5950 mm shaft and six-panel Cronus doors with a clear opening of 2200 or 2300 mm. The 2000 and 3000 kg passenger and freight lifts have 1800 × 2800 and 2000 × 2800 mm cars in 2750 × 3250 and 2950 × 3250 mm shafts. The tables give a 1200 mm pit and 3500 mm of headroom for all three, while the catalogue summary gives 1300 and 3600 mm, so we allow for the larger figures. The internal car height is 2100 mm.
Steel-frame shaft
If the building has no shaft, the factory supplies a frame clad in painted sheet metal or prepared for glazing. The limits are: rated load up to 800 kg, up to five stops, travel up to 12 m, structure height up to 16 m, external dimensions from 1140 × 1160 to 1800 × 2000 mm. The frame is fixed to a load-bearing wall of the building every 3-3.5 m. The steel-frame shaft cannot be combined with the MRL L LPH, the MRL UX SLH or the vehicle lift. Glass is not included in the factory's scope of supply.
The figures in the tables are minimums: a shaft with room to spare takes a larger car or wider doors. Send us the width, depth, pit and headroom of your shaft, and we will find the row that matches it: send dimensions. The full catalogue with shaft drawings: Metron - LIFTPORTAL (PDF, 4.1 MB).
