An elevator compensating chain is used to balance the car-counterweight system in multistorey buildings with hoisting height more than 30 m. The chain is installed in elevator shaft connecting the car floor and the counterweight thus compensating the weight load of suspension rope which varies a lot between lower and higher storeys. Compensating chains balance the elevator car and the weight of the hoist ropes from both sides working under a heavy load, so it is crucial to select a chain appropriate for a definite elevator installation to avoid a dynamic disbalance.
A conventional elevator compensating chain has a PVC jacket made of rubber composite which reduces the elevator noise level and ensures that the car moves smoothly. In addition, balance chain guides are used to reduce the noise level. A compensating chain of high quality can provide a safe and smooth elevator operation without loud noises and car jumping effect.
To select an elevator compensating chain you need to calculate the compensation weight by deducting the weight of tracking drag chain from the weight of hoisting rope chain. After that you define the compensating chain weight per meter based on the types of compensating chains the manufacturer offers. Professional producers usually have flexible options of weight distribution. There can be a certain error range in the calculation of the compensating chain weight per meter. There are two options of elevator compensating chains within the error range: you can choose two chains with a smaller weight per meter and one chain with a bigger weight per meter.
