LA500
AC Microdrives for Lift Applications

The LA500 is a compact, lift-dedicated AC drive designed for small to medium-sized passenger and service elevators. It delivers smooth, precise motor control for geared and gearless systems, with easy installation and simple parameter setup. Built to maximise ride comfort, it offers quiet operation, stable acceleration/deceleration, and accurate floor levelling—even under varying load conditions.

With integrated brake control, motor protection, and lift-specific macros, the LA500 ensures dependable performance in low- to mid-rise applications. Compact dimensions make it ideal for retrofits or new projects where panel space is limited, without sacrificing functionality or safety.
  • Compact form factor for tight control panels and retrofit projects
  • Smooth ride profiles with accurate stopping and minimal vibration
  • Built-in brake control for safe, consistent operation
  • Quick setup with pre-configured lift application parameters
