An eco-efficiency package for escalators and autowalks that cuts energy consumption – and energy costs – by nearly 17%.
 |
Stop & Go operation
When no one is using it, the escalator stops for a definable interval until the next passenger arrives. |
| |
|
LED Traffic lights
LEDs use up to 80% less energy and last twice as long as conventional lighting. |
| |
|
KONE EnerCal
The energy consumption report helps to estimate the total energy consumption and savings of your specific solution. |
| |
|
Environmental Production Declaration
The EPD provides information on the materials used in making your KONE equipment and on related CO2 emissions. |

MAIN BENEFITS OF ECO-PACK 1 |
Reduction potential of up to
–16.9 %, which equals:
–3922 kWh/year
–1534 kg CO2 /year
Payback time of 2 years |
|
– Major energy cost savings.
– Extended equipment lifetime.
– Lower related carbon emissions.
– A step towards green building certification. |

Optional special features:
Lubrication-free step chain. The chain requires no extra lubrication. This reduces wear on chain links and bushings and decreases fire risk.
Helical gear transmission. Substantially higher energy efficiency than the standard worm gear transmission even at low speeds.
LED lighting in handrail, skirt, comb, soffit and cove. LEDs use up to 80% less energy and last twice as long as conventional lighting.
Re-generative solutions. Energy can be recuperated from the downward momentum of a passenger-loaded escalator. |

| GREEN BUILDING CERTIFICATION |
| KONE Eco-Packs for Escalators and Autowalks are an important step towards gaining green building certification (e.g. BREEAM or LEED). |
* Based on a typical commercial escalator installation moving upwards. Vertical rise: 4.5 m. Step width: 1000mm. Speed: 0.4 m/s or 0.5 m/s. Operating time: 14 h /day, 6 days / week, 52 weeks / year. Load profile: 2.5h – 0%, 10h – 25%, 1h – 50%, 0.5h – 75%, 0h – 100%.
