Everything you need to know about the hydraulic elevator with Bayern Qatar

Hydraulic elevators are a common type of elevator used in various buildings, including offices, hotels, hospitals, and residential buildings. Hydraulic elevators are considered a good choice for buildings of small and medium heights as well.

Bayern Qatar is thriving in working extensively in the field of hydraulic elevators, their maintenance, and even their installation. Hydraulic elevators rely on the principle of hydraulic pressure to achieve vertical movement.

What are hydraulic elevators?

It is a type of elevator used in buildings, and it was given this name because it consists of a hydraulic system that includes pumping hydraulic fluid (such as hydraulic oil used in machines) to a cylinder (lever) that contains a piston, and when the hydraulic fluid is pumped to the cylinder. The piston moves up and lifts the cab.

Hydraulic lifts have several features, including:

• Hydraulic elevators are one of the types of elevators that are smoothest in movement, quiet in operation, and do not require loud sounds from the motors.

• Hydraulic elevators can carry heavy loads and large loads, as they can be customized to the required load.

• Hydraulic lifts also provide consistent and reliable working performance and respond quickly to control commands.

• Hydraulic elevators can be easily installed in existing buildings or that have dedicated elevator space.

• But hydraulic elevators require more space and space compared to other types of elevators, such as electric elevators, and require regular maintenance of the hydraulic system.

• It is a good idea for hydraulic elevators to be installed and maintained by professional specialists provided by Bayern Qatar to ensure safe and reliable performance.

What are the disadvantages of hydraulic elevators?

There are several advantages to hydraulic elevators, but there are some disadvantages that must be taken into consideration, including:

• Hydraulic elevators require a hydraulic pump to pump hydraulic oil, which consumes a large amount of energy, and this may be a problem in areas with high energy costs for the elevator to be lifted.

• The hydraulic cylinder and other components must also be serviced periodically to ensure proper performance and Bayern Qatar takes the time and effort of the owner or company responsible for the maintenance.

• The hydraulic system requires additional space to accommodate the pump and cylinder, and this can be a challenge in buildings with limited space.

• Another disadvantage is that it is considered heavier compared to other types of elevators, such as electric elevators, and it must be ensured that the structure and foundations of the building are able to bear these additional loads.

• One of the most serious defects is that the hydraulic oil may leak, which requires repairing the leak on a regular basis, but this is not the case with Bayern Qatar. You do not need any tension, as you are always safe with them.

Common prices for hydraulic lifts

The prices of hydraulic elevators vary from one type to another, and their prices often range between $27,000 and $137,000 in the State of Qatar, but they differ due to several factors, including:

• The ability of the elevator to carry loads and burdens affects its price, and hydraulic elevators with the largest capacities among types, as they accommodate a larger number of people, may be more expensive.

• The height of the building that the elevator needs to cover contributes to determining the price, and the higher the elevator is, the higher the price may be.

• Hydraulic elevators can be customized with luxurious materials or more advanced interior finishes, which is also one of the reasons why the elevator costs are so high.

• Hydraulic lifts require additional space to install and accommodate the hydraulic system, as this is associated with installation costs and necessary infrastructure costs.

• It is known for the types of elevator that the better they are, the more expensive they are. The most famous brands in Qatar, which are of higher quality, are the Bayern Qatar brand. The prices here are simple with high quality.

The difference and distinction between a hydraulic elevator and a gearbox

There are several differences between the hydraulic lift and the gear type, and here are some of the main differences:

• Hydraulic elevators use hydraulic oil and a hydraulic cylinder to raise and lower the elevator, while gearless elevators use a system of gears and levers to move the elevator.

• Hydraulic lifts are usually slower than gearless lifts, and the speed of hydraulic lifts can reach about 0.6 - 1.6 meters per second, while gearless lifts can reach speeds ranging between 1 - 9 meters per second, which is much faster.

• Often more capable of carrying heavier loads than gearless lifts, hydraulic lifts can accommodate loads of up to approximately 5,000kg, while gearless lifts have a lower capacity.

• Hydraulic lifts need additional space to install the hydraulic cylinder and oil pump, and gearless lifts take up a smaller space because they do not need these additional devices.

• In terms of the total cost of hydraulic elevators, it may be higher than gearless elevators, for several reasons, including the urgent need for a complex hydraulic system and additional periodic maintenance costs.

• Bayern Qatar has all types and all the capabilities to do these types more than any other company.

What are electric elevators and their advantages and differences from hydraulic elevators?

Electric elevators are lifting systems that use electricity as a source of energy to move the elevator. The elevator is moved by an electric motor and not by hydraulic pistons. They rotate the pulleys located at the top and bottom of the electrical box, and a belt or rope works to raise or lower the elevator.

Electric elevators are usually used in larger and higher buildings, where the capacity and speed of the elevator are high. The loads that the elevator can bear are greater.

They also have a speed advantage as electric elevators can move at speeds of up to 4-6 meters per second. They are slightly faster than hydraulic elevators but with less loads and space, making them suitable for use in buildings where many people are frequently transported.

There are many types, sizes and uses of electric elevators. Some of them can be used to transport people only, while others can be used to transport people and goods or according to the required use.

Electric elevators are also designed according to strict standards to ensure safety and durability, and are installed and maintained by Bayern Qatar International Company, which is the best company in Qatar to do this.

What are the sizes of hydraulic elevators?

Hydraulic lifts are available in a variety of sizes and shapes to suit different building and user needs.

Elevators are usually measured by the width, which varies from one type to another (width), the depth allocated to the well (depth), and the height of the car and the building (height), and are expressed in standard units of measurement (such as the meter or foot, according to the calculations used by each country, but in the working diameter it is in metres). ).

As for commercial hydraulic elevators in factories and standard companies, common sizes vary, such as:

• Width: It can range between 1.2 meters and 2.1 meters (4-7 feet).

• Depth: It can range between 1.2 meters and 3 meters (4-10 feet).

• Height: It can range between 2.2 meters and 3.5 meters (7-12 feet).

Hydraulic elevators can be designed with customized dimensions according to the requirements of the building and the available space. In addition, the area of the hydraulic cylinder, control unit and other equipment must be calculated when determining the sizes, as Byrne Company provides good and simple work in this field.
