We are sometimes contacted by people who need an intercom system they can
use as an elevator call system. These are mostly construction projects that have
an elevator operator for a manually controlled elevator. They want an intercom
system that can be used to call the elevator operator from any floor.
Of course you need something that will penetrate the concrete that’s around an elevator shaft. You may also need something that is battery powered, if you don’t have power available.
One solution is the MURS Outdoor Customer Service Callbox . This Callbox is normally used in stores so a customer can call for assistance. When its button is pushed, it sends out a prerecorded message to a handheld two-way radio or base station intercom. You can program the recorded message yourself. So each floor would have a message something like: “Floor 3”.
When someone presses the button, a light on the unit lights to indicate the message has been sent. The elevator operator then goes to that floor and hits a reset button on the bottom of the unit to turn the light off.
These Callboxes are battery powered and the batteries last up to a year so this can be the perfect solution to this problem.
We also have battery-powered callboxes that provide two-two way communication as well. These callboxes also call two-way radios or base station intercom so they can be used to actually talk to the person in the elevator. They are available in black or high visibility green.
We sell a lot of these construction elevator intercoms for high-rise buildings to use in their temporary man lifts or freight elevators.
