Built for continuous operation, our hospital elevators deliver stable performance even under high-frequency use, helping hospitals maintain smooth patient flow and reliable daily operations.
Hospital elevators, also known as medical elevators, are purpose-built for healthcare environments and go far beyond the function of ordinary passenger elevators. In hospitals, reliability always comes first.
These elevators are designed to safely transport patients, medical staff, stretchers, hospital beds, and medical equipment. They are required to operate 24/7, with zero tolerance for unexpected downtime or malfunction.
As an experienced manufacturer of medical elevators, Dazen designs hospital elevator solutions in full compliance with EN81-20, EN81-50, and CE standards. Every system is engineered with patient safety and medical workflows in mind, providing a smooth, stable, and comfortable ride. Advanced safety features help reduce operational risks and ensure safe, barrier-free access for patients, medical staff, and people with disabilities.

Our engineering team offers detailed pre-installation checklists to help you get everything right from the start.
Advanced modular computer control technology is employed to form a highly integrated VVVF serial communication control system, ensuring smooth starts and stops with stable operation.
High-precision permanent magnetic synchronous positioning technology combined with an automated centralized winding motor is more efficient, low energy consumption, and real green energy-saving. VVVF inverter control system, Rhos-compliant, lower operating noise, high harmonics with suppressed power supply, long design life.
High-precision permanent magnetic synchronous Door detection sensor, detection sensor in car door range, light curtain door sensor with shut prompt signal, and line detector. Ensuring high safety performance without worrying about the collision of the safety edge of traditional doors and avoiding unnecessary injuries.
Adopt high integration, double 32-bit S intelligent full-computer control system, make elevator data processing faster, and the classic combination of a dedicated full-digital vector IP inverter, through the full closed-loop speed feedback adjustment, so that the elevator operation is extremely long and smooth. And comfortable operation. Meet the needs of modern medical systems.
Utilizing advanced vibration-reduction technology and a silent drive system, the elevator effectively minimizes operational noise levels. Furthermore, low-noise control components and a unique car vibration-damping design ensure smooth and quiet operation throughout the entire process—from start-up, running, acceleration, deceleration, to complete stop.
When emergency rescue is initiated, the elevator immediately activates the “emergency rescue mode,” and will no longer accept any other call requests.
