Largest Elevator Installation in the World
To the left—Otis Push Button Control Micro-Levelling Elevators in United States Army Supply Base, Brooklyn, N. Y.
The efficiency achieved at the huge United States Army Supply Base in Brooklyn, N. Y., is largely attributable to the use of Otis Push Button Control Micro-Levelling Elevators—in conjunction with tractor trains.
This is the largest elevator installation in the world, consisting of ninety-six elevators, ninety of which are 1 0,000 pounds capacity Otis Freight Elevators of the self-levelling automatic type.
The elevators in the warehouses are operated in banks of ten and seven, by means of simple dispatch boards, so that one dispatcher operates an entire bank of elevators. No operators are needed on the elevators themselves.
Due to the elimination of operators’
salaries alone, this Otis installation saves about $160,000 a year in operating expense.
The same efficiency and proportionate savings will be obtained through the use of Otis Push Button Automatic Elevators in any industrial building of two or more floors.
