IntellaNet by MCE

Technologically advanced, cost effective controller for mid-rise and high-rise traction applications

IntellaNet by MCE is an advanced controller providing an unmatched combination of performance and lower life cycle costs. IntellaNet is an ideal solution for geared and gearless applications serving up to 64 floors and accommodating up to 9 car groups. IntellaNet SCR supports 1,600 feet per minute DC performance while delivering a smooth, comfortable ride.

Lower life cycle costs and high performance: The IntellaNet design philosophy maximizes performance and efficiency. The result is a controller that incorporates a decentralized network design and provides lower overall cost throughout product life.

Cost efficiency begins at installation: IntellaNet is faster and more efficient to install than most controllers. For example, traveler cable material and labor costs are reduced since there are typically fewer than 25 wires from car to machine room. Efficiency continues over the life of the product with lower ongoing maintenance and adjustment costs. Typical adjustment time is less than 8 hours, call backs and change orders are few, and the "building block" design philosophy means fewer parts to inventory. IntellaNet's energy conservation mode, operating during off-peak hours, decreases equipment wear and tear and saves energy without sacrificing performance when it is needed.

IntellaNet's digitally controlled closed-loop speed-and distancebased velocity feedback system ensures a smooth, comfortable ride. Multiple microprocessors provide a higher level of reliability and facilitate future system improvement and expansion. IntellaNet's LonWorks-based, modified ETA dispatching system is user programmable. Redundant traffic management and AI (artificial intelligence) dispatching are optional. Cross Registration or Cross Cancellation provides legacy system compatibility during modernization projects.

Field programmability easily handles changing occupancy needs and management requirements. More than 400 programmable options allow you to customize the system on site.
