Purpose-designed for the public sector, the Otis public escalator embodies the three qualities essential for heavy duty escalator requirements. It is safe. It is robust. And it is reliable.

Built to resist
The build has been made especially sturdy and the materials used especially robust. It is designed to cope with extreme weather and particularly heavy traffic.

Quality to rely on
This reliability is in part due to the escalator's advanced technology: the use, for example, of a microprocessor controller with a variable speed converter. A control panel checks the escalator in operation. And there are interfaces for remote monitoring and control. All these features conspire to extend the life-time of components even when confronted by heavy traffic demands. The result is, quite simply, optimum availability and low operation costs.

Focused on service
Optimum availability is also made possible by OTIS' sophisticated spare parts service network which is supported by highly trained service technicians. Sheer scale of our service operation means a faster response and superior availability.

User-friendly
The oil tight-welded bottom plate of the truss together with superior-quality insulation permits the public escalator to be regularly hosed. What's more, the oil separator collects and separates lubricants from the cleaning water.

Adapting to requirements
To meet individual needs, the this equipment can be equipped with sophisticated options such as the maintenance-free piezoelectric contact mat, halogen-free wiring and a non-lubricated chain. Automatic handrail tensioning can also be fitted.

Reliability through Passport
Passport is a system which establishes strict checkpoints from planning and development through to manufacture and delivery. Involving both front-line and senior levels of OTIS management, it is a constant reminder that the quality of every escalator is paramount. It is a linchpin in our production and commercial strategy.
