Innovative Control Systems Inc IGWT-660098 Manuel D’Utilisation

The Elevator Deactivation unit operates best in 
an ambient temperature between 35 and 90 
degrees Fahrenheit. Operation outside of this 
range may cause unexpected or undesirable 
results, including premature failure.  

The Elevator Deactivation cabinet weighs 3.5 
U.S. pounds.  

The cabinet containing the relays for the 
Elevator Deactivation circuitry (

Figure 10.1

) 

should be located in the room containing the 
elevator controls. 

 

 

 

To mount the Elevator Deactivation cabinet, use 
the following instructions: 

1.  Choose your location and appropriate 

mounting hardware. 

2.  Open the Elevator Deactivation cabinet 

and locate the four mounting holes. 

3.  Mark-out and drill four holes 

corresponding to the holes in the back of 
the cabinet. 

4.  Push out one of the knock-outs in the 

cabinet for wire/conduit access. 

5.  Connect conduit or strain relief fittings. 

6.  Position the cabinet over the holes you 

drilled and secure the cabinet to the 
mounting surface. 

The first condition is the presence of a Tag at a 
monitored zone. The second condition, in the 
case of elevator deactivation, is an indication of 
an open door at a monitored zone. 

If a door position switch, typically dry contacts 
from the elevator control or some form of 
magnetic switch, is not available, then a Passive 
Infrared Reader (PIR) is focused near the 
monitored opening.  

 

Local or State Code may require the wire to be 
run in conduit. Be sure to check your 
requirements before beginning work. 

 State codes require that all lock and 

elevator deactivation circuitry be wired into the 
facility’s fire alarm system. This is done so that
