HSE 2.0 – the flexible lift controller for modern lifts

Intec presented the latest generation of its tried-and-tested controller solutions at the interlift in the form of the HSE 2.0.

"It combines modular deployment options, space-saving designs and especially user-friendly operation – based on fast bare metal software and standardised CANopen lift communication," emphasised the controller manufacturer. The HSE 2.0 can be used both for the modernisation of individual lifts as well as for new installations. It is especially suitable for both large residential complexes and industrial applications.

One of its central features is that the HSE 2.0 can be deployed for lifts without machine rooms. Its design has been especially optimised for upright installation, for example in door frames or narrow shaft areas. "This space saving design not only saves valuable space but also facilitates service-friendly access and a high degree of flexibility in lift planning without having to make compromises in safety or maintenance," according to Intec.

The controller can be combined as wished with the Digital Safety System (DSS), PESSRAL-compliant systems or a classic safety circuit. As a result, the controller is suitable all kinds of safety concepts, whether in new construction or the retrofitting of existing lifts.

Two operating concepts available

Another central feature of HSE 2.0 is the two operating concepts available. The optional HSE touch display offers an intuitive "everything-at-a-glance" design. It can be mounted directly on the controller or at up to a distance of 5 m.

By contrast, the standard text display with keyboard provides a robust operating concept, the manufacturer emphasised. "An easily legible full-text display provides clear status information while the large keyboard ensures clear tactile feedback. This combination has proven its value in demanding deployment environments - from building sites to maintenance."

The plug-in pilot and universal relays of the HSE 2.0 simplify the initial installation and are also meant to shorten service deployments. Replacing the relays without tools is fast without any need for renewed wiring. These features cut shutdown times and contributed to the long-term operating safety of the lift, Intec emphasised.

Technically, the HSE 2.0 is based on a bare metal software design, which according to the manufacturer ensures maximum speed, minimal latency and high reliability. The CANopen lift standard guarantees extensive interoperability with the components of different manufacturers. The controller is standard-compliant according to EN 81-20/50 and offers flexibility in parametrisation – directly on the device or PC-supported via an intuitive software solution.

Fast replacement of the controller

In addition, the manual terminal can be used at any point in the lift via the CAN bus, thus simplifying start-up and maintenance. In the event of a defect, the controller can be quickly replaced thanks to its plug-in components and well-conceived system structure – including all parameters.

A planned software update will provide the option of configuring and monitoring and frequency converters directly via the HSE 2.0. As a result, the management of drive parameters will in future also be centralised – a further step towards a completely integrated lift controller.
